I would suggets you to go for XOOPS. It's a very flexible CMS and very easy to use. It's also very popular on the internet. You can find it at www.XOOPS.org There is a very huge community to help you out. I have been using it for past three years now and It has evolved so much.


And regarding PHPBB. I'll say that it's the best forum script

And for wordpress you just can't integrate it with Joomla as it is by just giving a link.

Well, it really depends on what you want to use it on.

DokuWiki is good for small time developers. PostNuke is good for clans. Siteframe is good for blogs and community based sites. Drupal is a little better with some communities. Coranto is good for sites that just need news updated frequently, without extreme bloat.

However, there are bad content management systems. Joomla is rather bloated, with a poor interface, and an even worse templating system. I wouldn't reccomend it to anyone. Siteframe can do what Joomla can with half the bloat and twice the performance. Joomla is suberior to any given content management system, I believe. phpBB is even worse for forum environments - it can't contain spambots, its CP is out of date, trying to remove multiple users is like pulling teeth even with a mod, and there isn't even a decent moderator CP. SMF is much better at what phpBB does.

For me, its Subdreamer. It costs a bit of money, which sucks, but It comes with heaps of different skins and plug-ins you can use, so its really customizable.

The main reason i use it though is because it integrates with IPB, which is the software im using for my forum. It can integrate with the other popular forum software too, so you can log in with your forums username and password, which is really convenient. Here is the link: http://www.subdreamer.com/

I think Joomla (www.joomla.org) is the best CMS. It is very easy to use. You do not need any knowledge of php, html or whatever (although it will help if you did a bit). There are thousands of cool mods, themes, components e.t.c.

If you're thinking of making a content site, but don't know any knowledge of php or any other internet language. Go For Joomla.

Thanks....
