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?
I tried it out. It didn't work for me. WP is a powerful CMS, but AdultSiteCMS removed lots of WP features that make it so great to use.

Make sure you get it from them in writing that they are compatible with Strongbox now. They weren't when I tried it out and it was a nightmare. Actually, get Strongbox to check the install even if they say they are. You don't want Strongbox to be disabled!

I use WP for my pay site, but I went a different route. You can email me if you want to know how.
