bloghelper.is-there.net — "By virtue of the fact that WordPress (WP) makes it easy for us to write, publish, edit and organise our blogs, it’s already a content management system (CMS). So, what in the world does “Use WP as a CMS” mean when we already are?"

I've been using Wordpress as a CMS at my job for quite some time now. It really is a lot more powerful than people give it credit for.

Trac is good for managing programs' development. If this is something you want to do then check it out, it is, in a way like wordpress for source control (easy to set up, yet still customizable). Apart from that, it isn't really relevant.

Thanks for this submitting this article, I was looking for the easiest CMS possible, and easy to install as I know nothing about Php. And I was tired to fight with CSS coding. Its better to be focused on the content, and on designing the content.

I use Wordpress to handle my blog at <a class="user" href="http://www.mkoby.com">http://www.mkoby.com</a> and Drupal to handle my family's website at <a class="user" href="http://www.thekobys.com.">http://www.thekobys.com.</a>While I'm sure Wordpress would be more than capable of handling the family's website, I went with Drupal for it because it allowed for easier "community" feel as it were, so my friends and extended family can create accounts, upload pictures, and comment on posts. Wordpress seems to be better geared toward blogging and publication, but I do enjoy using it immensely and intergrated various elements has been nothing but easy through the use of plugins.

Wordpress is a great CMS. It's robust plugin API let's you add almost any functionality you might need. However, it has some of the worst documentation I've ever read...

Aren't most companies and independent contractors using someone else's software for financial gain? I never knew blogging required much skill in the first place.

I think that WebAPP from <a class="user" href="http://www.web-app.net">http://www.web-app.net</a> is more powerful than WP. Its the best open source CMS cgi portal out there.

CMS? Not a CMS? This is an insanely tired argument.<a class="user" href="http://websitelogic.net/articles/cms/is-wordpress-cms-who-cares" rel="nofollow">http://websitelogic.net/articles/cms/is-wordpress- ...</a>
