[aklug] Re: Open source templates/CMS testimonies

I'm going to suggest WordPress. It's easy to use, easy to maintain, and there are a lot of sites that use it. Some hosting companies have a quick install button.

I'm still learning php and css and can't create a theme or template... There are lots of free templates/themes. You could be up and running in a few hours. Install is quick but adding the right theme and modules can take a while. There are lots of options.

Hope this helps.

Subject: [aklug] Open source templates/CMS testimonies

Hi. I'm the webmaster for my church. I need to remake the church website
because of some bad mistakes I made the first time. Unfortunately, I made
the first one look pretty nice, so now everyone expects the remake to look
really nice too (and I don't really have time now for the graphics design
and all that).

Any suggestions or personal experiences you'd like to share regarding open
source website templates or open source CMS? I can make a very basic Perl
CGI framework if needed, but I haven't done much web-design for over a
year now.

And I don't have root access to the hosting server.
