Over the past several months I've concluded that it's time to retool CP. We need to go from a static "site" to something more dynamic, providing more cigar related information on our homepage. My thought is that we begin asking the community to write/submit articles on anything cigar related. Your name (if you choose) will be associated with the article (ie: Written by ...).
In order to effectively setup a more dynamic community, I need to change the software platform CP sits on. I won't go into the technical details, however will say that the new CMS (content management system) will allow for easier article submissions and overall management of the CP front-end.
My plan is to create more community-written content, to include subjects such as:
Following is a link to the new CMS. Please note, I am not finished with the new skin, this is in Alpha phase right now. The general layout is pretty much set, however the colors, graphics, etc are still being worked on.
http://www.cigarpass.com/wp
Let me know if you experience any issues with the alpha site. Not much there, however my only concern is that it displays correctly on your device.
I look forward to hearing your feedback, and also moving forward to creating an even more dynamic and interactive cigar community!
Best,

- Opinion's (your favorite cigars, places to smoke, why you like cigars, etc)
- Article on what to expect at a herf
- Choosing a cigar
- etc...
