Can you recommend a CMS system
 

Have looked at EZPublish / Campsite and Interactivetools

Can you recommend a good CMS?

We are looking for a system, that allows users to join. Add events, calendarise content. Rate stuff, etc etc

Any suggestions appreciated

Drupal is one of the best and most secure CMS out there. So that is the one that I recommend.

I couldnt get my head around Drupal :o

Joomla is pretty good.

I like subdreamer very much and it integrates into vBulletin pretty seemlessly - you can see an example at http://wlsjourney.org - the homepage, support desk and links pages are subdreamer. :)

There are actually quite good CMS mods with VB here on this site - no need for things like Joomla/Drupal/Mambo - which I find really over-the-top CMS's for most people's needs (they're still excellent packages in the right application).

I use vbadvanced and Logician's WebTemplates - and find this more than adequate for my site.

^ Absolutely! How could I forget about vBadvanced?!?!? I think vBadvanced is one of the most awesome and useful modifications available for vBulletin. I make much use of it at http://JPiCForum.info --- It's very nice for custom pages as well as you can see at http://jpicforum.info/index.php?page=moderatingteam ((I hope it is okay to post my site links - it's not as advertising - god knows it's a waste of time trying to advertise a poetry forum or WLS support community on vB.org LOL -- It's for example of vBadvanced and subdreamer in action :) ))

Anyway - you may want to simply wait for vB 4.0 - I hear there is a very nice CMS integrated into the new series which may well be all you need in the default vBulletin package.

Jacquii.

Thanks ^5

Hey Jacquii , looks very neat ( WLS ) that is, because you have integrated it so well, its hard to tell whats what in terms of scripting, good work.

Will check out SubDreamer in more detail, shame they dont post links of people using the software, and or demos.

But on a different note, what did you use to create your encyclopaedia ? Its terrific. Looks like one of Giologists hacks, but couldnt put my finger on it.

Thanks! I just found out I'll have to purchase the Web Anatomy FLV Player ARG - It's usually free for non-commercial sites but since I run ads on the site it's considered commercial by them ((sigh...)) --- Logged on the other day and say the "Must purchase license..." note instead of my videos ARG! Frustrating to say the least... Perhaps I might find another FLV player - but I adore the WA script...

Anyway - I appreciate the love - I've put a lot of time into the site. It's about 99% - almost ready for new registrations...

Um - the Encyclopedia is a vBGeek mod - Geek Auto Linker: so most all terms in the encyclopedia will be linked in the showthread as well.

Jacquii.
