So i am offered to redesign a national magazines webpage here in Europe.

The magazine is big in the newsstands, but is badly made on the internet.

Basically they still edit all the articles and add adverts throught notepad/html.

 

They´ve asked if i could do it for them and in considering taking it on.

 

I have worked with joomla and pagelime. Looked at wordpress and visited the site of dupal but not really

done much else with that.

 

They need to be able to add adverts (flash, img, text) with the cms. And now the question is, what would you choose? Would any of the above mentioned do the job well? Or maybe id ask, which one would you prefer to use if you did the job and why.

 

Best Regards,

Emwi

Wordpress all day long to be honest mate!

 

Good luck

+1 with Terydinho, wordpresss all the way. Joomla, drupal and Expression engine are too bloated for it. Wordpress would be the perfect choice.

Oh i love the WP's

 

This is a magazine, WP is a great publishing platform for this type of gig although I have been hearing good things about EE.

I would use Wordpress or MODx. Wordpress has stronger support for magazine type sites, while MODx is great for any other type of CMS site.

I just had a look at modx and i must say it seems very attractive to use. Even though wordpress is powerful as well. Seems like joomla etc are out of the question.

 

Must have a deeper look inside wp and modx to decide. Thanks for the help guys!

It's not Wordpress' power I like it's the fact you aren't locked down at all really. Once within your themes domain you can write as much custom PHP as you like. The reason i like it is the super user friendly admin system that your Grannie could pick up and play with.
