My need is for a low cost system to run a small specialised bondage site that I can easily maintain myself. My requirements will be pretty standard for a pay site, with the addition of a Wiki or hierarchical articles section, having the ability to designate content as public or members only. The ability to have an e-shop to sell physical goods would be an advantage. A friend has supposed to be writing something for me in Drupal but this situation has dragged on into years and I can't wait forever for him to find the time.
As I already have used WordPress, AdultSiteCMS sounds as if it might prevent further protracted wheel re-invention.
I asked Claudio of AdultSiteCMS for ref sites that hadn't been customised by his team but he gave me that one was already listed on their site as being an example of customisation. So far, my request for a list of typically required components has been ignored. I'm guessing I need WP itself, AdultSiteCMS, Strongbox but not sure what else might be required apart from a payment processor (Zombaio sounds economical). Problems getting answers pre-sales are not encouraging so I'm wondering if AWiz might be safer?
Any advice to a total newbie to pay sites appreciated. Are you guys using these packages? My concern is that AWiz might be a bit dated and inflexible compared to a WP based solution. OTH, it seems to have a good user base so is hopefully fairly solid. How do they stand up against each other currently?
