Hi,

Is Siena stable enough to use it in production site?

Hi,

Shortly - no it isn't stable enough yet. Currently it is for testing, experimenting and small sites which can live easily without 99.9% uptime. For production Genoa is recommended still.

May the Source be with you!

Thank you for answer...

But would you use Siena in production environment only as a display site? (without user register)

Really depends on what parts you actually use. I run a Siena site in production (for a customer) but it doesn't use all of the modules (no forums, no pfs, no news, etc). It mostly runs custom modules/plugins which use many of Siena's core features such as the new DB layer and caching. Actually it hardly uses templates, because it serves as a communication layer for a mobile application, which means all output is in JSON (no HTML). All requests and responses are handled by an API that I wrote for Cotonti.

Basically Siena is mostly stable in the core, but it's the modules/plugins that can be bugged. I think pages is stable so if you only have a static site that will work fine. It's modules like pfs, pm and forums that may be unstable.

It would be just a site with pages/news and some custom plugins (banner rotation and stuff).

I think I can give it a try, then...

Oh, one more question: is there a ready solution for fancy urls?

Yeah I would like to see the "Awesome mod url rewrite" for Siena as well.

 

By stable what exactly do you mean? You say there is bugs? For example like a module loging someone out or plugins giving rights to the wrong user? I don't really understand what bugs could be plaguing these modules..

 

I plan to switch over to Siena by next year, do you plan to fix the bugs by then?

About fancy URLs, you can track/discuss this issue. I wish to implement it in August.
