advice on which Blog/CMS to use for my website...

    Hi there,

    I'm creating a website where I have my own custom header and google adsense at the top, and a side menu on the left and right.

    I have started creating my website using Wordpress. It went well, until I realised that I need to add a table of data with images onto some of the pages. The point that I am trying to make is that Wordpress only allowed me to add blog posts to every page so I couldn't add images, tables of data or anything like that which I can do in HTML and CSS.

    So my question is, out of the following, are there any that will allow me to do what I'm trying to do? The main page is the only page that I want to be like a blog where I post articles, but I want every other page to be like ordinary HTML/CSS without any need for any PHP stuff. It could be easier to just create a one page blog site and link the buttons to HTML pages, or not?

    I think you've not got to grips with wordpress.

    Here's one I built using WordPress as CMS : http://www.ayurvedicmedicine4u.com

    All is done with wordpress, except menus. Images can be added, can write HTML by flipping into code view, pretty much anything you want.

    What's the problem with wordpress?

    Hi, could you please tell me where to go so that I can fully edit the pages. For example I want to edit my "Video" page, where do I go in the admin section? Is it Manage > Pages ? Thanks.

    I'm all for WordPress. It's a blog CMS out of the box. It's a do-whatever-the-heck-you-like when you delve a little deeper. :)
