Pluck, also known as pluck-cms, is an open source content management system, written in the PHP scripting language. It allows for easy webpage creation for users with little or no programming experience, and, unlike most content management systems, does not use a database to store its data. Pluck also includes a flexible module system, which allows developers to integrate custom functionality into the system.

Features

Because pluck aims to be as simple as possible, it doesn't include as many features as other content management systems.

Pluck has the following features:

  • Simple page creation
  • Theming system
  • Module support
  • Trashcan

It also includes 3 default modules:

  • Albums
  • Blog
  • Contact form

More functionality can be added through the module system.

History

The first version of pluck was released somewhere in 2005, but under the name CMSsystem. It was a "one man project", and the code wasn't released under an open source licence. Version 2 and 3 where released in 2005 and 2006, though the exact dates are unknowen.

Version 4.2 was the first with the name "pluck", and was also the first version released under the GNU General Public License.
