Website maintainence with CMS
-
Hi all, I'm not sure if this is the right forum for my question, but here goes. I have no problem with using dream weaver or note pad to edit my websites. However, if I want to allow someone who does not know a single HTML tag to maintain his/her own site after I create one for him/her, that would be a problem. What free CMS (content management system) out there will allow me to achieve my goal? I would like WYSIWYG as one of the features and also drag and drop capability to allow dragging and dropping of different web elements. I have seen many free ones but they did not satisfy my needs. Please point me to ones that are user friendly and have all of what I have mentioned above. Any suggestions would be great, thank you in advance for your help.

Not knowing what kind of website you want to implement suggestions are hard to make. Have you tried Joomla?

Hallo. I'm actually working on a gig where my client uses DotNetNuke (DNN). It is free/open source, though doubtless the hosting and any personal tech support is what adds cost. DNN is an open source CMS built on ASP.Net, snd so far, I'm finding that it works fairly well, comes with several basic skins and choices of other free/low-cost skins, etc. You can add security, create different portals (such as using it as your CMS of choice for multiple clients with different website addresses), etc. As for the WYSIWYG part, DNN has FCKEditor (FE) built in for that, so you will need to study FE to work out minor CSS issues brought on by slight conflicts between the built-in DNN Stylesheet Editor and the FE syles and config files. Looks pretty easy if you have access to the full directories (which as a contractor I do not). Check it out: DotNetNuke: [^] FCKEditor: www.fckeditor.net/[^] Good luck!! :cool:
