Simple Content Management??

[[bill]]

I've built a site using CSS and rather than me having to do all the simple updates to text/news upload pics etc. I could do with including an extremely simple CMS for someone with no experience to log in and make simple updates to selected areas - preferrably wysiwyg cross browser editor.

Can anyone recommend one - I don't mind paying for it but it needs to be really simple to use... thanks for any advice.

CMS400.net. Never used it, but might be worth a look?

Free CMS using php+mysql very easy to use.
Mambo

Joomla

I've used phpNews in the past for exactly that purpose, don't know what it's like these days, but have a look.

Basically, I have learned (being a newb myself) you can create what you want by simply following a few tutorials - which has helped me learn coding alot. I am in the process of completing my own CMS and learning to intergrate different features into it. If you do try coding your own, check out http://www.fckeditor.net/ so far I haven't any problems incorporating it into my site.

Good Luck!

MrsDelley, can you point us in the direction of the tutorials you have used?

I did the same as MrsDelley for one site I made. I Found the SitePoint series Build your own Database Driven Website using PHP & MySQL

Part 1 here:

There are also some good ones at DevShed:

or

Hope that helps

If you want a commercial product go with CMSimple. If you want an gpl open source the go with CMS Made Simple. The names are similar but they are two different products.
