HuggieBear Posted August 8, 2007 Share Posted August 8, 2007 I'm after suggestions for a CMS to use with an existing design. Here's what the site looks like: Pulse I guess CMS is probably a little too grand for what I want. I just want to be able to update the text on each of my pages without editing the design. I've implemented solutions like TinyMCE before and think it's an ideal editor to use, but I need to be able to integrate this with something that can handle the content.

pranav_kavi Posted August 8, 2007 Share Posted August 8, 2007 I suggest that if the content on ur website is a constantly changing one..u shud go for a CMS. Else just a little of coding can be done on your pages and just update ur database(manually) wenever u want.

HuggieBear Posted August 8, 2007 Author Share Posted August 8, 2007 OK, say I went for an all singing all dancing CMS like Joomla, how easy would it be to create a UI/skin for it that reflected my design?

XeoWolf Posted August 8, 2007 Share Posted August 8, 2007 Thought about just using includes for the text areas of the site? The only thing I've ever had against CMS's is the lack of control over the layout. So I've been tinkering with using includes and online WYSIWYG's to control the content. But I'm not sure how that effects search engines and web crawlers if the content isn't actually "in" the site's pages. I wouldn't want google to be listing my include files instead of my index files. Just a thought. Interesting topic to me.

HuggieBear Posted August 8, 2007 Author Share Posted August 8, 2007 I think that's what I'll end up going with. TinyMCE with my site's stylesheet should be OK.
