I currently run a website dedicated to action sports and their surrounding cultures, im no web expert so please dont pick my current site to pieces, however a bit of feedback would be appreciated :)

 

anyway...my point...i am constantly having problems with integration, so i would like to know you lots opinion (im from yorkshire and cant speak proper :p )

 

i tried joomla...i dont have much patience

i tried drupal....it was too slow

i tried something....i cant remember...

im currently on wordpress...which i really like, but like i say i have integration problems and its all a bit faffy...

 

i want to know the best way of going about a site like this...kinda like facebook with everything under one username, blogs/galleries/forum all user friendly, cos at the moment its a little bit disjointed :(

 

im also currently install magento commerce into a different domain so i can sell clothing to my friends...any one got an opinion on that? (current one is zencart)

 

cheers

Expression Engine might suit the bill because you can manage blogs, galleries, and forums without tons of addons and modules like you'll need for the others you've tried. This means one login covers everything which is probably what you're after.

 

The only thing you'll need to be aware of with EE is that you can't use it as a "sign up for your free blog" type of site, instead everything is a communal effort, ie everyone posts images to the same image gallery but you can filter what's displayed so you can "display all photos by Fred Bloggs" if you wanted, same goes for any articles, blogs, and so on.
