Joomla Vs Wordpress for content management?
 

Every now and then I hear someone talking about using Joomla fotr content management, are there any pros to using Joomla vs Wordpress? Discuss...

Joomla is like phpadsnew... You can put content into different categories and have it popup in designated areas of the website. You could do the same with wordpress but it wasn't designed to perform that way.

wordpress is about as simple as you can get to run any size blog you want

joomla is a bit more complicated and can run anything from a blog to a full on monster like cnn.com (no, they don't run joomla, just giving an example)

alright, might be worth taking a look at then. thanks for the info guys. how does joomla fare in the way of plugins and seo?

If you are dealing with actual content... go Joomla...


just blogging... stick to Wordpress...

i have a non-adult news type project in mind that will be content based that i think this might work well for, and from a designers standpoint it's probably something worth at leats taking a look at. was just curious what people thought of it, i hadn't heard too much...

there's a few seo plugins for joomla and you can do some pretty easy .htaccess mods.

about as much as wordpress has

they are called components

http://extensions.joomla.org/

looks like a pretty good library to me

there is NOTHING joomla can't do ;)

i run www.xxxis.net off it, but there isn't much going on there

I am working on another site right now that will be a full web 2.0 portal for the burning man community in the southeast...it will have user created blog, interactive forums, flash galleries, etc....all run from joomla
