Article post system for web

[mishima]

Hi,

I'm in search of a News/Article type posting system for a website I'm making. I need something that will post up articles and have a backend so that images can be included and text edited etc.

I've had a look at a few scripts but they don't seem to do what I want.

Can anyone lead me in the right direction or offer me some help please?

yep.

it is brilliant.

It is completely customizable and supports RSS feeds.

Also has an advanced WYSIWYG editor which can add images etc. (sort of like the forum one but more advanced.)

Thanks,

Would I be able to have previews of the articles on a page. Like 3 or 4 of the latest articles, or would I have to do this manually?

You can add a teaser which is the preview and choose the amount of articles to display on each page.

Superb, I'll give this a go tomorrow. Thanks for that - really appreciate it!

as another option for you : one of the popular article managers at the moment is ArticleMS.

If I work on this and develop different features within it, would I be in trouble?
