Content Management System

[Zilla]

Have any of you got any recommendations for a CMS. Also any I should be avoiding?

Thanks for your help.

Are you looking for a shared CMS like Macromedia Contribute or a custom CMS for yourself?

If you need a custom CMS, let me know and I will be able to help.

Best Regards,

I don't need a shared CMS as at the moment its only me working on the site.

To be honest I'm not really sure what I'm looking for. Having been looking into CMS's for the last few days, I've been sort of turned off the idea, as I'm not sure I could easily integrate it.

Even though my site isn't launched yet I have basically built my site so far as static content, so I have the site layout completed and circa. 60 pages of static content built already in the form of a strategy course.

Now I'm looking to build the Poker Articles Section and the Poker News section and these are the two sections I will be adding content to on a daily basis going forward.

So what I was originally looking for was a CMS that would be able to run these two sections and not interfere with the rest of the site which is static. Then maybe just have some RSS feeds from the CMS in the (static) navigation of the site.

Most of the CMS I've looked at seem to work in their own php templates, and not sure if what I want to do is actually achievable.

I'm not looking for anything fancy, just something to automate the daily posting of the articles and automatically update some sort of navigation links to the latest articles.

I certainly don't think I need a full blown CMS.

If anyone has any ideas It would be greatly appreciated


Thanks

Adrian.

A full CMS such as joomla or mambo is too much for your needs, but perhaps wordpress would work for you. Otherwise an article or news script such as this http://www.interlogy.com/products/content/article/

Thanks very much Julie.

That link you provided looks very promising. I'll look into it more over the weekend.

Thanks

Bobi at TopQ has done several CMS sites for me as well as many other members here. There are easy to use and TopQ does awesome work. Just tell them want you want and they will get it done.

Once you go to a good CMS system you will never want to go back to html. Only my opinion of course.

I've just found this software: http://www.xigla.com/absolutenmnet/index.htm which looks pretty good - not open source, but looks impressive.

Also a scaled down version of it for slightly cheaper: http://www.xigla.com/absolutenm/index.htm

Anyone used this software before?
