We have finally reached the end of Milestone2 and my group Kukuicuptech1 has pulled our hair a lot trying to make our CMS work.
Some main things that my CMS does not do is the CAS login. There is a module called External Authentication which can do what the title says, but not CAS. I posted on the Silverstripe forum for help in the CAS login but unfortunately no one answered. Also, the last person who did post something about CAS login did not get an answer.
So instead of keeping on trying to do the CAS login, I worked on the layout of the website following the Mockup provided by the Design team. Now I tried changing some parts around to have a layout to choose with my group's CMS. So instead of having tabs along the top of the website, I had the tabs on the left side.
This is my home page where users will automatically go to first.
The next page under would be the Kukuicup page.
The next under would be the resource page which talks about energy saving. As sub pages, I put in the games provided by the design team for users to play with.
The Last pages would be the login and logout pages. Now, since I could not apply the CAS login to my website, I just used what the CMS had. Silverstripe has two different ways of logging in. One for the admin and one for a regular user. So I could not make the login to just have one place to login. I had to make two different links for people to login.
When someone logs in there will be other tabs that will come up. One is the user's page and the logout button. The user's page will contain information about the user's energy savings and the logout button will just logout the person. It does look funny though that the login tab is still there when someone logs in but if that is not the person's login they could go to the login and login as themselves.
