What are some recommended resources or scripts for implementing a news editing feature in PHP that does not require a database?

To implement a news editing feature in PHP without using a database, you can store the news articles in text files on the server. Each text file can represent a news article with its content. You can then create PHP scripts to read, edit, and save these text files to manage the news content.

<?php

// Function to read a news article from a text file
function readNewsArticle($articleId) {
    $filePath = "news_articles/article_" . $articleId . ".txt";
    if (file_exists($filePath)) {
        return file_get_contents($filePath);
    } else {
        return "Article not found";
    }
}

// Function to save a news article to a text file
function saveNewsArticle($articleId, $content) {
    $filePath = "news_articles/article_" . $articleId . ".txt";
    file_put_contents($filePath, $content);
}

// Example usage
$articleId = 1;
$newsContent = readNewsArticle($articleId);
echo $newsContent;

$newContent = "This is the updated news content.";
saveNewsArticle($articleId, $newContent);

?>
