---- Best OpenSource CMS ?

Heredetik - 4:50 pm on Mar 3, 2009 (gmt 0)


I’m looking for the best opensource CMS for me to use. I’m pretty new at web design, so I’d like something fairly easy to get up and running, but something I can also grow into. I’ve heard a lot about Joomla, Drupal, and DotNetNuke.

Can someone please help me with some suggestions of what CMS would be best and what plug-ins/add-ons or components I will need to add to build this site?

  • I want to build a site where the key feature is the ability to search for records from a list of 1000 to 5000 items. The only person able to update and edit the list would be myself. I’d like the user to be able to perform a searching using one or more of the fields (probably as a drop down list).

  • For the search results I’d there to be a summary list of all the matching records. If the user clicks on one of the matching records there will be more detail about the record. At the bottom of the detail would be a place for users to add their comments/ratings for the record.

  • Eventually there will be a job listings section of the website. So I’d like the CMS I use to be capable of building a clean and effective job section of my website.

    Any comments would be very appreciated.

    Thanks!
