Hello. Looking for a good CMS, I also found this one - it had very positive comments. I have installed drupal and joomla and find them overwhelming and slow in response time. I am not a newbie at computer work and made a couple of websites in Net Fusion and RapidWeaver. I was now asked to take over o community site, originally created in drupal but ugly and malfunctioning. All I need is:
Publish articles in public and "registered user only" environment including inline images
Provide a nice forum
Provide article category for registered users with comments capability (something like user blogs) including inline images
Be able to influence the graphical interface with own design
Optionally, I would like to provide private messaging and private photo galeries
Good response time on an AIX (IBM Unix)
I do not expect you to spend time on detail answers but would appreciate yes/no to my needs.
Thanks
Lanny

Re: In search of CMS
Thank you for your response.
I have impatiently downloaded and installed the product and have gone through it. I do not think that external forum is acceptable - it means that much more CSSeditting I would have to do.

Re: In search of CMS
