xoops? Geeklog? or phpNuke?

If I want to create a comunity, like http://linkedin.com or http://ecademy.com, what content management should I use?

Also, can anybody tells me how to integrate stuffs? For example, can we integrate phpNuke with chat?

Which chat scripts are the best?

What content management can be integrated with phpBB?

try http://www.opensourcecms.com/ and check a few out. I think a lot of it comes down to personal taste and the use you have in mind for it.

There's a huge amount of possibilities around there.
It all boils down to what you want to do with your CMS and what options you all need.
It's best to think about this first, and then start looking around to see which CMS fits your requirements best.
Most bulletin boards can easily be integrated into different kinds of CMS systems, it's just up to you to see which one you prefer the best.
Perhaps you could also take a look at the homepages of several CMS systems and try out their demo's to get a better feel of it.

Let us know how you get on!

mkportal integrates nicely with phpbb and their default skins match each other.

You can also check it with http://modxcms.com/ or http://www.etomite.org/

Mambo would be my pick.

www.joomla.org - the new mambo
www.textpattern.com
www.drupal.org
www.interspire.com/articlelive/

Those are some really good ones.

Thread moved to Web Design and Content.

PhP Nuke has a large copyright notice below. Is it mandatory? If not I want to make it smaller.

Where can I get support for PhPNuke? They don't seem to have forum.

I need chat, forum. Also I have several websites. Like http://greateducationaldeals.com/business http://howtolearnmath.com and http://greateducationaldeals.com/business . Can I create a bunch of directory structure using content management system?

I was going to say Mambo/Joomla.

PHPNuke is a pretty bad idea, IMO.

Before you install PHPNuke, check out CPGNuke:

http://www.cpgnuke.com/

What's the forum for support for PhP-Nuke?

php-nuke has separate communites for each country. You can search them from this page: http://phpnuke.org/modules.php?name=Community

hardjoko,

You can check also ; http://forums.postnuke.com/index.php and www.nukeforums.com

I second Joomla and Drupal as well. I'd head over to w ww.opensourcecms .com/ to get a better overview of your options. Communities like LinkedIn have some pretty custom features as well, not really something you'd find "out of the box".

e107.org is the best! I've tried them all but nothing beats e107.

My vote is for Xoops, www.xoops.org

Very powerful and tons of community support, lots of add-on modules. I use it almost exclusively.

NCaster is another good one, but it's probably best for video game sites.

I am thinking of doing typo3. You're right. phpnuke sucks.

However, there is no forum support for typo3.

There is a forum support for phpbb.

Joomla is not supported by cpanel. So is typo3.

The best CMS is PhpKit, you can integrate the WBB2.x and Php Open Chat (POC) with extra free modules into your website and database.
Its easy to edit the templates too !

greeting

Both not entirely true BTW.

Hi all

Well I have used some of the one's listed. I have had a lot of luck with phpwebsite, it is simple in design but can be expanded to fit your needs. It has a bbboard that will follow the them that you are using. Real easy to costomize.

Ummm yes... almost all cms's beat e107 due to the number of bugs it has... they haven't released a 95% bug free version yet.

IF they come out with a version that is at least 95% bug free then I'll start using it again.. I like the layout of it better than any other but it sucks spending hours finding all the patches every time a new ver is released.

What is fantastico?

Hi hardjoko

Fantastico is a set of scripts that is a part of cpanel that will automate the install of many programs.

I recommend phpwcms - http://www.phpwcms.de/

Is fantastico free?

It looks like fantastico is made by a third party:

Hi hardjoko

To the best of my knowledge it only works with cpanel. Cpanel does require's a licence.

I am using typo. The learnign curve is insane. You can't just easily make a template. Anyone else use typo?

hardjolo

I did a quick qoogle search and found some likes to templates but am not alowed to post links yet. From what I read it is mostly html style templates. I myself am working with phpwebsite templetes which uses css and html and tables to format the pages.

Good luck

I've used PHPNuke, but it seems pretty tought to use if you are not computer savvy. Any thoughts?

Where can I get good typo3 templates? I know the basic of making template but I'd like to start from something already good.
