Default What is ur favorite CMS ??

From days to days, many CMS's have been established. Some are coded by php and the others are coded by rail or asp.

Me, i have never tried the biggest's such as Drupal ..etc yet. So far i have just used google blogger, Wordpress.

Joomla and Drupal sites have been mushrooming remarkably. Especially in Vietnam, Joomla seems to cover all every percent of CMS.

So, What about you?? what is ur favorite CMS or the one you think you really need for ur future?? Ideas??

The only PHP CMS I've ever used on a project was Mambo so I'd have to vote for that

I haven't tried them all yet. I played around with Joomla, CMS Made Simple, WP, Drupal and Expression Engine. All have their ups and downs. CMS Made Simple is one of the easier ones to use, but it still has a ways to go before reaching Joomla's level. There are also some annoying bugs in CMSMS. Until recently, there was a nasty SQL injection issue with it.

Default Well..

Well i agree with obolus!! There are many bugs in CMS, the serious thing is the SQL injection.

@ Orc, That's great to code by ourself sometimes; but Knowing accurately CMS will guarantee you to finish many site projects by spending short of times.

As i remember from my Software engineering teacher, he said that Component-based softwares have been more and more popular.

At the moment, Everything, every tool exists
The problem nowadays was able to re-construct those component to meet our requirements
, he added.

My favorites are Symphony and Textpattern.

Symphony is based on XSL and is really flexible, the only downside is that you have to learn XSL, but with the video-tutorials on their site its pretty easy.

Textpattern is just the easiest one to learn if you know HTML, but it can still do some really advanced stuff.

XSL stands for EXtensible Stylesheet Language.

The World Wide Web Consortium (W3C) started to develop XSL because there was a need for an XML-based Stylesheet Language.

I have been using joomla (mambo) for a while but recently switched to DRUPAL it is alot more elegant (IMO) and easier to administer. They have many useful modules / themes that can be easily customized.

My own CMS - it's damned simple to add onto.

If I were to go with a system out there I'd have to go with Wordpress.

wordpress the new 2.5 version gives you great control, and there are many themes out there for download, as well as plugins, easy to edit or create themes..

I really like it because of its ease of use, I use it for client sites because they can easily figure it out even if they are terrible with computers.
