A good and cheap content management system, – with search functionalists?

September 11, 2009 - 1:30 pm 1 Comment

Have a very little bugdet ($3,000), to make a food and recipes site. I want to buy a contant management system, that can search the site and allow users to make comments.

I will be doing the design and html and contant. But my programming experience is very lacking, so I am not sure of an open source system?

Please let me know what good content management systems are out there? –

Thank you.

Joomla! is an excellent content management system, has plenty of extensions for just about anything you would want.

What Content Management System is best for a site that needs to have a Wiki, a forum, and department sites?

September 5, 2009 - 4:32 pm 2 Comments

I’m trying to decide which Open Source Content Management System out there would permit me to develop a large group site that would have a decent wiki, forum, and the ability to create multiple department pages and specialized registration forms. Preferably you should be able to view everything without logging in, but when you login gain additional functionality.
I’d prefer these functions to either be native to the system, or an add-on that doesn’t require me to instal more than one CMS.

geeklog has all of those functions.

Content Management System : Which is the best you’ve worked with?

September 3, 2009 - 7:22 pm 3 Comments

I was thinking of integrating a Content Management System for my company’s website. Anyone has any recommendation of any good recommendations for open-source Content Management System I can start out with?

I’ve tried Mambo and Drupal, and haven’t got the hang of it yet.

I have used ezPublish, PHP-Nuke, PostNuke, Mambo, and probably a few others and was not impressed by any of them. Customization was a pain with all of those, they were horribly bloated and slow, and full of security holes. I felt like they attempted to be *the* script for every kind of website, and what you end up with is a cookie cutter CMS site.

Now, depending on what type of site I’m making I try to find a content system specialized for that. Such as a company intranet, blog, online magazine, etc. I’d recommend those over the big bloated CMS scripts that can do everything, but not one thing particularly well.
