    A CMS which can integrate my preferred forums, wikis...

    Hi.
    I'm rather new to Content Management System(CMS).
    Just wonder if there is a CMS which suits my needs to manage my websites, but at the same time let me integrate my preferred things:
    - forum software (eg Invision Pro Board) [most wanted]
    - wiki software [most wanted]
    - blog software [still desired if possible]
    - poll & survey software [still desired if possible]

    I'm not a programmer nor techie. Thus I don't know how to modify codes myself unless there're clearly outlined step-by-step tutorials which teach me how to do.

    Does any CMS can satisfy my needs?
    Any advice?
    Thanks!

    Joomla can meet your needs. Check joomla.org. It has more than a thousand MODS. Also, Joomla has a strong support community.

    The easiest way to approach that is to use Joomla. It will do all of that stuff out of the box. I am assuming there is a port for invision powerboard. They have bridges for other forum systems.

    You will still need someone to do some stuff for you though. Anything involved in porting a forum for instance, will typically involve a bit of coding. Nothing major though, usually just cut and pasting stuff.

    Aside from that, Joomla has a blog system etc. So you are halfway home with the system itself.

    hope that helps

    I have been curious about Xoops. Can you post some of your sites that are using Xoops? Thanks.
