Want a C5 mobile app? Feature requests, please!

Permalink
Hi everyone,

What if there was a Concrete5 mobile app for your favorite smartphone OS? Would it be redundant (the C5 interface is HTML and Javascript, after all), or would this be awesome?

What features would you want to see? Would a C5 mobile app be hugely useful, or would it be a gimmick?

How would you want to use a C5 mobile app?

Thanks!

I would love to see this. I think a mobile platform to edit with would be spectacular for when people need to make small changes to their site or add content on the go (last minute client requests, yadda yadda yadda).

Check outhttp://ios.wordpress.org/ for some sweet features, et all.

Features I would like to see: edit content, add pages/blog posts, moderate comments, basic file manager support.

Keep us posted.

that would be nice,

Admin Users,
Admin Files,
Change Permissions (page and file)
Delete Page
Change page properties

(in the next version of c5 there is something called composer that could be replicated)

This would be great, especially on an iPad.

The thing is I can already login, click edit and select edit block but it will not let me type in the content block for example. It does exit, publish at the moment too.

A few tweaks and it would be there.

I think it depends on your target audience.

Whilst site admins would probably like things that enable them to do the same on a mobile device that they would normally do on a computer. I don't see much effort vs reward since most (if not all) can be achieved via the devices bowser. I don't see much point in a cut-down version of CC5.

However. A Site member would probably love things like taking a picture with a mobile devices camera and with one button press; upload it to their blog. Or perhaps a block on the website that tracks the geo-location of the device (goggles maps?) and shows pictures they have taken there. Maybe even the main site acts as an aggregator for tweets, messages, news,RSS etc that gets sent to the mobile device periodically or when something updates.

How about something like the 'Tumblr' bookmarklet for posting quickly to your blog or website; upload a photo or video, share a link, youtube video or web-page?

This is the code if anyone is interested- (I wouldn't know where to start!)

javascript:var%20d=document,w=window,e=w.getSelection,k=d.getSelection,x=d.selection,s=(e?e():(k)?k():(x?x.createRange().text:0)),f='http://www.tumblr.com/share',l=d.location,e=encodeURIComponent,p='?v=3&u='+e(l.href)%20+'&t='+e(d.title)%20+'&s='+e(s),u=f+p;try{if(!/^(.*\.)?tumblr[^.]*$/.test(l.host))throw(0);tstbklt();}catch(z){a%20=function(){if(!w.open(u,'t','toolbar=0,resizable=0,status=1,width=450,height=430'))l.href=u;};if(/Firefox/.test(navigator.userAgent))setTimeout(a,0);else%20a();}void(0)


Found it here-http://snipt.net/solace/tumblr-bookmarklet/...

Did anyone ever develop this? I think it would be a great addition?
