I am having lots of troubles maintaining the website. one problem that I encountered is, for example I want to post an article, and I need to insert the article in plain html and save the file. It became very troublesome for me to maintain texts. I want to use a proper cms to do it.

Today I am trying out possibilities, however, I am running to several problems.

  • my server kept crashing. I don't know if it's a problem that's caused by port mapping. I have now 3 pis installed with my router, and I've mapped the two others' http and ssh ports accordingly. The main one (which ports were from default) never crashed, and the other two kept crashing. I couldn't ssh and couldn't connect on cyberduck. Not only I wasn't able to connect but the OS was corrupted, I have to install again the OS.
  • I couldn't install nginx or apache on the servers, after I flash a new system. The problem just occurred today. The error was some files could not be fetched from this archive http://raspbian.raspberrypi.org/raspbian/pool/main/n/nginx/ I was planning on trying out a cms named Kirby on the server, but I couldn't install the server so I couldn't proceed.
  • pay wall. Since I saw many sites are built with wordpress as cms, I wanted to try it too. But then I gave up after Wordpress asked for a fee to use the cms annually. Kirby is also not free.
  • Now I am going to try pelican according to this documentation - https://garyhall.org.uk/fast-blog-for-raspberry-pi.html . This person identified similar problems with me, that html took ages to write and need a easy to maintain manager. Lighttpd, if I am understanding correctly, is the web server, that's to substitute nginx and apache? Then I will try to first install it on the pi and see if it has similar error with nginx and apache. <and as I expected I also had similar error trying to install lighttpd of not fetching the right files. >if it has similar errors, I can try on my laptop, but I don't know how the server aspect works if I am trying out locally on my laptop.

error: frequent broken pipe. SSH crashed my house, and in PZI it also crashed, after I tried to curl a file.

I don't know if I try out these instructions it will be helpful for my ssh? https://homebrewserver.club/demystifying-ssh.html


  • I also would like to know, if it's possible to buy a server? on Varia's website they mentioned a server that various other self hosted devices are connected. I always found myself frustrated using the pi as server (crashing, slow, don't know how to manage things..) I don't know if that's a good idea.

Chronological order articles.png

pelican differentiates pages and articles. pages are static, like about page. whereas articles are published under same categories under chronological order.

possibility of familarizing how jinja works with pelican?

about Jinja http://pzwiki.wdka.nl/mediadesign/Jinja

about blogging culture

reading this sentence from pelican documentation I start to thinking of blogging culture, for me it was popular since 2000s, would be nice to examine the culture and labor of blogging?

The questioned being asked in FAQ is - Is Pelican only suitable for blogs?

No. Pelican can be easily configured to create and maintain any type of static site.
