Not a massive fan of their design direction, but it shows off the capabilities of a Joomla! website. Smile

Although Wordpress is good, I would go for a proper CMS if I were you. It will be easier to organise things how you want them - unless your friend is able to utilise Wordpress' custom post types?]]> Sun, 22 Apr 2012 21:53:04 +0000 http://forum.speakerplans.com/best-website-platform_topic65934_post662061.html#662061 <![CDATA[Best Website Platform : Cheers for all the suggestions,...]]> http://forum.speakerplans.com/best-website-platform_topic65934_post660324.html#660324 Author: burningbush

Cheers for all the suggestions, my friend knows Wordpress so might go with that - although I have access to both Joomla and Drupal.]]> Tue, 17 Apr 2012 21:34:03 +0000 http://forum.speakerplans.com/best-website-platform_topic65934_post660324.html#660324 <![CDATA[Best Website Platform : Ahh, I see!Since then I&#039;ve...]]> http://forum.speakerplans.com/best-website-platform_topic65934_post659375.html#659375 Author: infrasound

No, I was referring to Perch. I've used both Joomla and Drupal before. I was the one who recommended Django in your web technologies thread, really can't say enough good things about it! My hair has grown back a bit since I gave up trying to make Drupal work for me. Others may have more luck..]]> Sat, 14 Apr 2012 22:58:24 +0000 http://forum.speakerplans.com/best-website-platform_topic65934_post659365.html#659365 <![CDATA[Best Website Platform : Are you referring to Joomla or...]]> http://forum.speakerplans.com/best-website-platform_topic65934_post659363.html#659363 Author: infrasound

Are you referring to Joomla or Drupal? Both are nice bits of software. Both got their pros and cons though..

Perch looks nice, never seen that before. £35 pales in the cost of developing / hosting a site Thumbs Up

Never used it myself as I'm dubious about web software without easy trial methods, but Perch might be worth a look too if you don't mind paying. Although there are plenty good free alternatives to not bother.

Joomla or Drupal are other good alternatives Thumbs Up

You will need a CMS if you're thinking big!

If you can wrap your head around it, I would recommend the Django Web Framework. Otherwise Wordpress or Textpattern would do.

I was looking for suggestions for what I should use to construct a website documenting the history of PA, its companies and product specs and photos.  Would Wordpress or something similar be best to use?]]> Sat, 14 Apr 2012 13:52:58 +0000 http://forum.speakerplans.com/best-website-platform_topic65934_post659236.html#659236
