Need a CMS, Spec me!?

mast3r · 1 Apr 2011 at 21:23

Hello to all,

I run a large gaming clan and we are in serious need of a new site, i have two artists in the clan but no coders or developers. So i need some help to decide on a CMS to use that’s suited for a Clan.

I require a forum, this has to be integrated and not a link, so only one login to the site.

I have a list of
PHPNuke - Old and has many flaws but we have used this for 8 years and know it fairly well.
E107- i dont like it myself.
Drupla - seems over complicated?
Joomla - as above
Webspell - seems to be limited

Please can anyone point me in the right direction??

Current sites -

www.epcclan.co.uk
www.webspell.epcclan.co.uk
www.webspell2.epcclan.co.uk
www.webspell3.epcclan.co.uk
www.webspell4.epcclan.co.uk
www.old2.epcclan.co.uk
www.temp.epcclan.co.uk
www.elitepcs.co.uk

Many thanks

Joomla and Drupal are generally about as complicated as Lego. They're very powerful and generally exceedingly easy to use and customize.

If your used to nuke it shouldn't be too hard to get to grips with,
ive been running nuke sites of various guises for 10 years and this is without doubt the most secure and feature packed

Quite a few people have success using wordpress as a CMS.

I haven't used Joomla, but Drupal: as above.

For that type of project, I'd go for Drupal over Wordpress too.
