    I am wondering which CMS to use on my new website. Which CMS do you find useful and easy?

    I am not looking for joomla, wordpress, drupal and other open source but just normal CMS for webiste.

    It would be nice if it is simple and flexible. To publish articles, assign URLs, maybe recent, related and popular articles module to be included in this CMS.

    Anybody has any good recommendations?

    Thank you

    I use wordpress, and it has all features you specified, all you need to do is to find the plugins

    WordPress is the best CMS if you want blogging, but if you want some nice website with a lot of features Joomla is your CMS. I hope I helped you much.
    Thanks!

    For my sites, wordpress fits my needs perfectly. Its light weight, easy on the server and does everything that I need.

    For my forums, I use VBulletin. Even though its not free and cost a good bit of money, I think its well worth it.

    wordpress but its not a CMS,, you have to make it CMS for your needs using a lot of custom coding..

    If you hate to code, then try WPThemeBuilder as it can generate themes and CMS features in wordpress for you without any coding..

    Search the forum.. you will get lots of similar threads on the topic.
    My vote goes for drupal, there's nothing that drupal can not do, possibilities are unlimited. it has better architecture and clean code.

    Actually, DLE v8.0 (it has English language as well),
    since it has an option to share administrating tasks
    with other users from this version, is SEO-friendly,

    uses UTF-8, shows news fast. HighSlide library for
    showing graphics and player for multimedia, TinyMCE
    editor or BB codes for writing content; native module
    and integration with phpBB, IPB, vBulletin forums, etc.

    As always, it depends on what you want the site to do.

    For us, Wordpress is used for a few sites but we tend to use Drupal for most heavy duty CMS builds. Joomla has a good following and is easier to get up and running with; but in my opinion, the architecture is nowhere near as good as Drupal's.

    Drupal can take a while to learn though - particularly if you start to build your own modules.

    Drupal is the best for me, but it's not as easy as WP or Joomla. Pligg is worth a look though...

    If you come to CMS, surely Joomla, Drupal etc are the best and lakhs of sites using them. But It seems the thread starter needs some artcile publising site script instead CMS. He can go for something like this
