Webcraft - a Content Management System for World of Warcraft Private Servers. It's aim? Quality! Webcraft is secure, powerful and feature rich but most of all, extremely easy to use! All that for free.
Status: Under development
Webcraft is still being developed. Information below is in subject to change.
Feature Rich
Webcraft will offer all kind of powerful features making your website and server much easier to manage. Below we'll sum up a few of our key features.
• Multi-host Connections
It's a feature that many CMS' are missing and will be extremely useful to large servers. The ability to host all your realms on different hosts without your site causing you any trouble!
• Staff Control Panel
The Staff Control Panel (SCP) is a combined Control Panel of the regular Administration Panel with a GM Panel. The SCP offers all kind of management tools for administrators and Game Masters. Special security is in place to prevent unauthorized access. Some tools are;
• Account Control Panel

What Else?
Obviously there are many more features included such as a powerful theme and plugin system, news comments, Stickied news and much more! We recommend checking back here on a regular basis as more details on our features will become available in time.
Secure
It's been on the news for a while now, security is often lacking. We, the Webcraft team will do our very best to keep Webcraft secure and keep it up to date. Found a vulnerability? Let us know as soon as possible!
Easy to use
The feature rich a CMS becomes the harder it often gets to use it. Webcraft is different. Not only do we focus on features and security, also user friendliness is extremely important to us. We intend to make sure almost everyone with a basic understanding of English will have no trouble using Webcraft.
Based on WebWoW
That's right, Webcraft's original code base was based on the popular WebWoW CMS v1. However, by now barely any of the original code is left. That's right, we've been cleaning up and rewriting it all!

Got something to show me?
Webcraft is still in early development and we don't have that much to show you at this time. However, every now and then we will release something cool for you to look at. Concepts, screenshots and even videos will be available in time. Below you will find all the released content so far.
Realm Settings (video)
Private server CMS' often do not allow separate hosts for each realm. Webcraft is different, with Webcraft you can host each realm on a separate host. No problem at all!
Staff Group Management (video)
In this preview we will give you a quick look at the Staff Group Management page in the SCP. Staff Groups allow you to assign your staff members into special groups which determines the access to specific tools.
You will also see a "master" account. The Master account is a hard coded rank for the owner of the server. This account is untouchable by any other staff members, no matter what their permissions might be. This will ensure you will always have access to your site in case one of your staff members decides to have some "fun".
