The most website has and control panel installed into it making all admins able to edit the website without editing the RAW html files.

Example's of this is EpiServer, Joomla etc..

I wonder how do i get this onto the website? ^^

A server-wide admin panel comes at an extra cost. Ask your hoster if you don't have such "useful" things as Plesk or cPanel.

Application-wise, if it's not readily available, odds are that it doesn't exist. So, you either have to pay for it or write it on your own.

We host the website by our own :/ but are we still able to install cPanel or Plesk? ^^

Let's try again.

Plesk et al. provide an interface to manage the whole server (i.e. FTP, email, ...), while a web content management system comes with a build-in administration interface.

If you don't use a CMS at all and only upload some files through FTP/DAV/other fancy application (i.e. DreamWeaver), you'll have to write such an admin interface on your own or find one that suits your needs.

But you'd better provide a better description of what you're up to:
  • what operating system is your site running on?
  • what server-side languages and what databases are available?
  • are you trying to install Joomla?

Not editing the raw html files simply means that the site is using a database most commonly php-mysql combo. Joomla is using a custom built control panel IMO.

You need to learn server-side scripting first before you write a control panel, since writing a custom control panel, the way I see it, is the only way that you can accomplish this goal.

    Looks like Google fixed whatever mistake that made the recipes on the site go crazy and we are no longer trending towards a recipe site lol - I don't care though because it motivated me to spend alot of time on the site improving it and at least now the content people are looking at is not stupid and embarrassing like it was when I first got back into this like 5 years ago.
  • The Helper The Helper:
    Plus - I have a pretty bad ass recipe collection now! That section of the site is 10 thousand times better than it was before
  • The Helper The Helper:
    We now have a web designer at my job. A legit talented professional! I am going to get him to redesign the site theme. It is time.

    I got one more day of community service and then I'm free from this nonsense! I polished a cop car today for a funeral or something I guess
  • Varine Varine:
    They also were digging threw old shit at the sheriff's office and I tried to get them to give me the old electronic stuff, but they said no. They can't give it to people because they might use it to impersonate a cop or break into their network or some shit? idk but it was a shame to see them take a whole bunch of radios and shit to get shredded and landfilled

  • Monovertex Monovertex:
    How come you're so into recipes lately? Never saw this much interest in this topic in the old days of TH.net
  • Monovertex Monovertex:
    Hmm, how do I change my signature?
  • tom_mai78101 tom_mai78101:
    Signatures can be edit in your account profile. As for the old stuffs, I'm thinking it's because Blizzard is now under Microsoft, and because of Microsoft Xbox going the way it is, it's dreadful.
  • The Helper The Helper:
    I am not big on the recipes I am just promoting them - I use the site as a practice place promoting stuff

  • Monovertex Monovertex:
    @tom_mai78101 I must be blind. If I go on my profile I don't see any area to edit the signature; If I go to account details (settings) I don't see any signature area either.
  • The Helper The Helper:
    You can get there if you click the bell icon (alerts) and choose preferences from the bottom, signature will be in the menu on the left there https://www.thehelper.net/account/preferences
