Hi all.....

i am going to build a new website soon.
In the past i used WordPress, Typo3 and once Joomla.
I heard and saw good things abou CMSMS, so i would love to give it a try.

For this new site, i have some layout things i would like to know if they are possible in CMSMS, but first i like to know the following.

They are going to have a section where the want to list publications/books. So we need a backend section where they can insert them.

I would love to have a sort of content type where they have to enter seperate fields for things like:
Title
ISBN number
Publisher
Author
Description
Cover Image (image upload)
Category (List of categories where they have to pick 1)

Is such a thing possible in CMSMS?

Thanks for helping :)

There would be Products module http://dev.cmsmadesimple.org/projects/products that i think would be best option for you.
Fields needed can be added with Extra Fields.

If you want to build it based on regular content pages look at AdvancedContent and GBFilepicker modules, for additional fields you can also use {content block="foo" label="This is my additional block" oneline="true"} in your template.
