FInding Scripts

issues finsing scripts to meet my needs

[vrmant]

I have been searching for weeks now, without accomplishment, for scripts in the following categories.
1.CMS - so editing a web site that is currenlty online is simle for the avergae joe.

2. Links Directory - that allows th avergae user to maintain the direcotry and make all necessary changes.

3. Shopping Cart - (biggest problem) that is SE friendly and that can enable anyone to administer. That aloows for multipe autoresoponse follow ups.

4. Email List manmagement - same as above - just feature rich, bounce management, html templates for the emails, and easy to use.

I find it hard to believe that of the thousands of scripts i've come across. Nothing is simple enough for the average person and feature rich at the same time.
At this point money is not an object, so what do average people use to maintain their sites, content,ecommerce, etc.?
Any help would be great
Thanks

vrmant,

I know this may not be what you wanted to hear, but have you considered writing the scripts? Whenever I need a front-end for my customers to take care of things like a links list, email list, editing html, etc. I write them. Typically I use PHP with a MYSQL database to control such things as the lists, locations of .html docs etc... I have never been able to find a vanilla "script in a box" that suits every need in this aspect, being every situation is different. Just my 2¢

I hope you acheive what you're shooting for ... Good luck!
