OpenPanel appears to be using Xojo, I’ve stumbled across it when searching for another open source Control Panel I remembered a few years back.
Just from the GUI that looks Xojo-ish, I’d say we have a live web app.
Nope. You found a WordPress site.
Looks at screenshots
That isn’t any WordPress site I’ve seen.
Looks at network activity. Finds WordPress site addresses:
You must be completely blind!
The screen shots literally contain a XOJO web app. I don’t recognize WordPress in those screenshots AT ALL. I’ve never had a WP installation have a Xojo GUI that allows you to add Domains, Databases, Users, etc.
Definitely a Wordpress site. Just “view source” - it’s loaded with wordpress references.
OK, I’m blind. And done with your questions :-).
nvm, you must be referring to the application that the site is selling, not the site itself that you linked to. It does look a little xojo-ish, but the description of it doesn’t really sound like it. Especially the parts about open source and can be extended/modified in any language.
You’d have to download it to be sure.
Looks like OpenPanel development predates WE.
According to the docs it is written in Python.
Alright. I really wish someone posted what you posted instead of creating an argument, like claiming that the app used WordPress, presenting “Network Activity” and the like, completely ignoring what I’m looking at.

Hum… From my outside perspective, I would dare to suggest that the best way to avoid arguments is to praise the desired behaviour/intervention and ignore the others. Venting frustration only fuels arguments. Besides, it is just too easy (speaking from personal experience) to ignore the fact that others may understand an issue differently than one does, and offer misguided help as a result.
Just my 2 cents in hope that the whole forum benefits.
I just came across this web app made with Xojo: http://kiaras.net/corp/
That WE app looks nice but what’s disappointing and unprofessional is that the Login isn’t using HTTPS.
That means it’s insecure 
I think not having HTTPS for stand alone WE apps is a huge fault and even though I own a web edition license I’m not sure how useful it is.
Dana, is there any idea on when stand alone WE apps will have HTTPS?
Thanks.
The app that Dana linked too isn’t running standalone. It is CGI so it is a matter of the implementer not bothering with a SSL certificate.
I think there are enough solutions to be able to use https that having it in WE standalone is probably not that high on their priority list at the moment. I mean, we can already have https with cgi and with standalone through a reverse proxy. That’s two ways, including one that involves using the standalone.
Hi and thanks guys for your replies.
I need to learn the differences between a WE CGI and a WE stand alone, care to share (thanks)?
Can a WE CGI push data to client at will?
Although it would be nicer if a WE stand alone could handle HTTPS built in it is good to know there’s a workaround for WE stand alone not having HTTPS ability but how does that work and what needs to be done? I am not familiar with the details of setting up and using a reverse proxy. Also I’m wondering how this effects server load and efficiency?
Thanks for your guys help.

I didn’t claim the app used WordPress. I claimed the site you linked to did. If you link to an elephant, and then later claim to be talking about its eyebrows, you’re going to have a few people who aren’t able to read your mind.

I made the same mistake. The original post wasn’t very clear.
