e107

I searched for a CMS after spending too much time trying to design one on my own (in perl, yuck!!!). I ended up finding opensourcecms.com over 6 years ago. I tried a number of the demos and narrowed it down to about 6 (many being the more mentioned names). I ended up selecting e107. Positives. * Solid core * Easily modifiable themes. * Easy to design Plugins (Blocks/Menus) * Easy to understand Language system. * Stable, every version I've ran. * Good community and wiki for docs and solutions to problems. Negatives. * Minor errors in some existing themes and Menu's. e107 is a good choice to create a unique looking site quickly, but it may not be the best choice for non-programmers who can't fix minor issues in themes and plugins to make them perfect, or those who can't find any existing plugins they want. However, if you are even a basic html/php programmer, or smart enough to follow directions to edit files, then I think e107 is an excellent foundation for a website. 1. Minor issues with themes, languages, and Plugins can be fixed or modified easily. 2. Simple Themes and Menu's can be dissected and understood easily to teach you to create custom ones. I go back to opensourcecms.com annually to see the newest additions or releases, and I still find e107 the simplest to customize. It really didn't take all that long to open a theme, or Plugin, and dissect and understand them well enough to create my own easily. I'd recommend at least loading it, testing it, dissecting a theme and dissecting a simple plugin so you will see how stable and easily customizeable it really is.

Good Soft! Thank. Excellent application!
