A members only section is simply a matter of changing the permissions on your

Banner Advert administration


Banner advertising would be very simple to create using the various existing
datatypes and writing a rule that will display
the banner ads in a container on your site.

There is a blog in the works (and I need to persuade a certain someone
to put some code into SVN so I can work on it!), but it is possible
with a bit of work to integrate BlogCFC into farcry.
You can see it in action here : http://www.dott07.com/go/dott-blog
I would release it, but I'm not happy with the way I've done it, plus it has
some extensions specific to Dott.

I haven't tried it, but if you can get blogcfc to work then canvas and
Galleon are possible as well.

Farcry 4 has only been released officially for about 6 months, but
there are more and more people picking up on how powerful it is and
how easy it is to develop with and extend.
As more people get proficient with the framework more plugins will appear.
