To make a long story short: I don't like using CMS's, but I really have to at the moment because there's so many content. I know how to work with Joomla! and Wordpress, but they're too advanced (not too hard, but too many options. They're too big), and they are not purely controlling content, they're also a kind of website creators, with creating pages, components/addons and the ability to choose layouts and stuff. What I am looking for is a very basic CMS, only for controlling/editing some content. Small, but usable. I already have a finished website I want to implement the CMS (it's not that big yet, so it's doable ). Any suggestions?
For vBulletin? Use vbadvanced for sure. I'm still working on my site, but if you goto the link in my "Location" box, you'll see what vbadvanced is. For a normal site, no vBulletin, try CuteNews. It's very easy to use.
Totally forgot about Joomla. Yeah, a lot of nice websites use Joomla. Only problem is you have to be really aware of their updates, seems Joomla modules always have exploits being released for them. Every script will have it's moment for exploits, but Joomla just seems more frequent.
There is a really simple cms. I think its Liteneasy. If that is the right name, i know they have a version that requires a database and one that doesn't. But you can just literally edit the content.
CMS from Scratch is a great option. It is the only CMS I have found that lets me have total control over the appearance and layout of a site right off the bat without making things all overly complex (other CMSs offer this kind of control but not without a bit of a learning curve, while CMSfSs learning curve is virtually non-existant). You just design your site as normal with HTML/CSS then just paste it into the CMS and chop it up into includes and your done. It has some very nice features too, like you can set up menus, navigation systems, lists, etc. as set includes then just paste the relevant bits of HTML into the set template then you can adjust your menu, add new items, rearrange existing items just by editing entries in a simple form (so clients could do it easily enough). CMS from Scratch doesn't use a database itself. It just stores info in simple text files. It is built with PHP. It is free. It has some bugs but they can all be worked around well enough. Not using a database of course limits its capabilities to some extent. You can use PHP though which means that you can set up functions on your own within your pages which do access a DB if you need to (I actually really like this, because it more clearly separates the product database and the website, and the CMS - the only things which have access to the product DB is code which our own people wrote and understand, not the CMS itself). The beauty of CMSfS is not how powerful and advanced it is, because it is not. The beauty is that it simplifies management of your site but it does not take control from or force you to work around its concepts. You can build your website however you like and build whatever sort of functionality you may need, CMSfS won't get in your way, but it won't do it for you either. You have to setup your site and build your content yourself, the CMS will just help you manage it (those it does include a wysiwyg editor, for adding new pages from within the CMS, but I see that more of a tool for clients and laypeople to use).
MODx cms can be a good choice... extremely easy to integrate a template, easy to use admin cp... For my taste only wordpress can be even better choice.
you also try express engine well.. is the good CMS and blogger also if you need any help..PSD to HTML feel free consultation sp2h dot com
