Maybe we don't need to switch to a third-party CMS. We have code here that is already set up for Chess variants, and it might be hard to duplicate or integrate that with a third party CMS. But we could use some new features. I don't use msdisplay much since I can upload html pages, but looking it over, it seems very bare bones. Here are some features I think could help improve it:
A WYSIWYG editor
A more sophisticated HTML editor
Buttons for inserting common HTML code
An easy way for users to upload images
Fields for metadata, particulary title, description, keywords, and an image to use with Open Graph metadata and Twitter cards.
A reference to Game Courier and the graphics.dir directory as resources for making diagrams and displaying piece images.
Maybe replacing msdisplay.php URLS with /user/userid/ or /category/category_name/ or /userid/category_name/ URLs.
On the Game Courier end, I'm thinking of adding the ability to selectively save Game Courier generated images to a user directory for permanent use on a webpage. This might spare the need to allow users to upload images, keeping people from using the site for general image hosting.
With regard to limiting HTML code, what did you have in mind? Any further thoughts on features msdisplay could use?
