About SPIP

SPIP CMS is a content management system written in PHP that uses one or more databases like SQL, SQLite or PostgreSQL. It was initially released in July 2001 and can be used by institutional sites, community portals, academic sites, personal webpages, and news sites. One of the SPIP features is that it allows you to set the lifespan of a page in its presentation skeleton. The pages and information is first stored in the database and then formatted through presentation ‘skeletons’ that merge HTML and SPIP’s own markup language. SPIP relies on its catching system to display pages, and if a page isn’t cached and isn’t too old it will be displayed.

SPIP features include image processing, multi language support, internationalizing themes and content syndication. You can follow the link below to download the latest version of this content management system and set up your own SPIP demo and go through all the features. The screenshots below will give you a preview of how the admin demo looks like and a few examples of themes. As it is the case with most content management systems out there, you can customize your online demo through themes. Before going through the installation process you need to make sure you follow system requirements. SPIP CMS needs PHP4 or PHP5, a MySQL database and usually an internet account. After setting up your SPIP demo you’ll see that this content management system allows you to lay out your articles without the need to use HTML.

The latest version available for download is 3.2 and became available in October 2017 under the GNU General Public License.
