About the Monphi CMS
The Monphi CMS is a Content Management System that was created to simplify the design and modification time of website design and deployment. The idea is to create a simple back-end engine. With simple HTML templates and modular design.

Templates can easily be created, existing or new webpages can be used as a template with the minor addition of blocks. The templates consist of HTML and simple bracketed blocks where dynamic content will be placed. The primary content is placed in the [content] block. Additional blocks can be added inside the content block with custom modules.

Your content is stored in an underlying MySQL database. The Monphi CMS requires two database accounts: one for basic reading and a second for content management. The idea is to add an additional layer incase the code isn't up to security necessities.

The engine was initially designed to work with Apache and Mod rewrite. Using mod rewrite we can funnel all of the websites input through the engine allowing us to define a variety of URL Aliases. A URL Alias allows us to name our webpages anything we want to. This is useful when converting existing web sites and keeping the same URL paths.

Templates
Templates can easily be created, existing or new webpages can be used as a template with the minor addition of blocks. The templates consist of HTML and simple bracketed blocks where dynamic content will be placed. The primary content is placed in the [content] block. Additional blocks can be added inside the content block with custom modules. The default blocks for a template are :
[admin] - For the administrative toolbar.
[content] - This is the main content pulled from the "Main Content" section.
[error] - Location where engine errors will be displayed
[htmltitle] - The title that will be displayed in your windows title bar, this should be between your templates <title> tags.
[includeData] - Used for the output generated by the simple include
[title] - title to be displayed like a "header", say above the main content.
