Free PHP page generator script
A start to automated site building

Freeware
Version 1.1

Description

This is a PHP script that you run online. The script can be used to build large numbers of pages from a list of keyphrases. You make a file called items.txt which has a different phrase on each line. Then you run the script, and the script goes through each line and makes a webpage based on that phrase. The name for the page is the keyphrase with dashes added.

eg. If your keyphrase is "free sex pics" then the file name will be free-sex-pics.html

This script is at the heart of automated page building and can be modified extensively. Anyone looking to get into page / site automated building? This could be the start you're looking for.

Features

• Generates 1 - unlimited amount of pages.
• Fully customizable.
• No experience required to set up (should be pretty easy!).
• No limit to the number of pages you can generate.
• Script to clean up the files.

Working Example

Here's a demo to the script running on my server, where you can see it generating pages. Go to the page below...

Example:

And then click on "Create".

You'll then see a read-out from the script telling you the pages it has created. You can then go and take a look at those pages by clicking on them from this screen.

What the script did was to take this text file: See the text file

And then read the keyphrase on each new line and make a webpage from those words.

Download & Installation


Download the latest version HERE.

1) Download and unzip these files to a folder on your hard disk.

2) Create a folder on your webspace called /insert/
This is where the script will run from. CHMOD this folder to 777.

2) Open up items.txt and add a different keyphrase to each line of this file. You can get them in here any way you like.
NOTE: This file must be uploaded in ASCII every time you change it.

3) Upload all of the files to the insert/ folder in FTP.

4) Edit settings.php to pick the folder name you want the script to make the new pages in. Eg. my-pages/

5) To run the script - go to www.doman.com/insert/index.html

... in your browser. You'll then be able to generate the pages.

Customizing the template:

If you open up insert.php, look for this part of the script:

$html_page = "<HTML>
<HEAD>
<TITLE>$keyphrase</TITLE>
<META name=\"description\" CONTENT=\"$keyphrase\">
<META name=\"keywords\" CONTENT=\"$keyphrase\">
</HEAD>

<BODY BGCOLOR=\"#000000\" TEXT=\"#FFFFFF\" LINK=\"#FF0000\" ALINK=\"#FF0000\" VLINK=\"#FF0000\">

<CENTER>

<H1>$keyphrase</H1>

Great $keyphrase page.

</CENTER>

</BODY>
</HTML>";

You should recognize that as a regular HTML page. Wherever you want the phrase to appear, just add $keyphrase and one strange note - wherever you have " - you must put \ before them - as I have above. It's so that the script does not think that the " is part of the program.
