Best CMS

Hi guys,
I ve tried out joomla and I must say it seems really good but it has a few bugs, therefore I am looking for another cms. Does anyone recommend a CMS which is powerful and easy to use? Many thanks

 

Wordpress!

 

But wordpress is a blog

 

Is there the possibilty to remove the blog from wordpress? Therefore the homepage would be a page and not a blog.

 

you shd try using the wordpress widget plugin, it give you lots of flexibility !

 

wordpress vote here.

 

Joomla is nice but if you want a simple site it's very easy to get caught up tweaking joomla and never develop your site. If your site has 1 strong theme to a niche lets say I think wordpress is way to go. If you plan on making a massive community with writiers for you and multiple sections updating constantly than Joomla.

 

Wordpress another vote here .

 

Could any one show me a site that used wordpress as a cms? Many thanks

 

wordpress offer the ability to make static pages ... and sub-pages

long time ago i made one : www.galicia-frc.org

the first page is static ...

 

ok - did you use a plugin to make the first page static instead of blog?

 

yes but i think now its integrated in wordpress .

in the 2.1 version .

Options -> Reading -> Front PageFront (page displays)

or the plugin for older version :

Many thanks commando

 

If you are not looking fwd to use wordpress then I would say go with drupal instead of joomla .

 

Well I tried drupal, but honestly I didn't find it so user friendly.

 

Unless you make a mod in your robots I'm assuming which I haven't yet...

GOogle, Yahoo and MSN will most likely ONLY index your PDF files on joomla EVEN if you disable .PDF. Nothing worse then getting hits but they only get a PDF with no links....

 

Well guys after weighing all the options I decided to go for wordpress. Many thanks to all.

 

but it is more SE frndly than joomla .

 

any good guides on converting wordpress to a static page cms?
how does google see your site as a blog and what nees to change for it not to be?
have static pages?

 

Okay.. I identified that there is little material available on how to make a CMS out of wordpress, I have written few lines on how to use wordpress as CMS
