delivi 0 Report post Posted March 26, 2007 (edited) the best solution for your need is Wordpress. You can download Wordpress from here https://wordpress.org/download/Wordpress is the most popular Blog Management System. It provides you the basic features of a blog and the users can also post comments.The best part of Wordpress is the huge number of Plugins available to customize the Wordpress. With the right plugins and design you can modify your Wordpress blog into a full fledged CMS. You can also customize the Wordpress blog with a theme of your choice, you get a huge number of free Wordpress themes. Just Google for it.

jlhaslip 4 Report post Posted March 26, 2007 For a decent "add-on" compnent to an existing site, Google "cutenews". Works good.sample site hereNotice how the index page contains all of the articles and selecting the specific Company name from the left-hand sidebar displays only the company specific Articles? this is done using "categories" on each Article and the cutenews code to select by category for the selected Company.The Template is available on the "Annex" site in the pink Toolbar above the Shoutbox.

I can honestly say cutenews is great! Its very clean and simple, but it also can be tailored to your site easily.The integration is the best part. It is so simple to integrate with 3 lines of php code (three short lines that is!) but can be so easily configured. And its standalone php files, no mysql databases either. Give it a go, see if you like it. I've integrated it with my site (have a look round the blog pages and all the different blog sorted pages. You can choose to set it up how you like it!): projectjim It supports easy image upload, longer "full story" modes and comments by visitors, or whoever you tell it to allow. It also has smilies as you'd expect! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jlhaslip 4 Report post Posted March 26, 2007 oh, ya, I forgot... I have removed the commenting on that page... :lol:It works good, too, but that is a Demo page for a prospective client who doesn't want the comments... Sorry about that.Go to the cutenews site I linked up there to see their demo... or to Jimmy's page. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

monarch 0 Report post Posted March 27, 2007 the best solution for your need is Wordpress.I have to agree with this.When I first found wordpress I was searching for a blog system that will allow people to create their own blogs. https://mu.wordpress.org/and once I got the script running I was pretty amazed at how easy it is to add content.

SamiFX 0 Report post Posted March 27, 2007 thanks to all, I relly liked WordPress so it has many themes and plugins, I preferd it from joomla cause of it's simplicity and do not take time to load on a page that's what I need.. I didn't do a search but I want to know if it has a plugin for admin so he can make multiple accounts and each account is an admin with a subfolder? just like multiforums...
