    Hi,

    Can someone recommend a good community cms? I've use Joomla, Drupal, and Wordpress. My need is I want user to have it's own page and it can join forum, chats etc with using only 1 login account. can someone recommend a good and fresh cms?

    I know Joomla & Drupal could do that but I want something new.

    Thanks!

    Wordpress multiuser, also called Wordpress MU. If I understand it right, that is what wordpress.com is using. Each person can have their own page that acts like a blog with built in commenting system, and you could use the wordpress forum.

    But if you want to build a community, why not use the software that was designed for that? And that is a forum. VBulletin 3.8 was released today. Each member can have their own profile, with built in commenting system, built in picture gallery. There are chat rooms that can be plugged straight into VB, such as flashchat buy tufat. There is even a blogging system for VB that is fully integrated. Using VB, your members can have - profiles, blogs, picture gallery, chat room, forum, profile commenting system, private messages. What more do you want?

    I do all of those things you listed, and about 1,000 other things on my site with Drupal.
