I'm currently working on a site which was half-built in Joomla by another developer. I've been asked to finish it off, but I'm having doubts as to whether the way it's done is ever going to work well (there's a LOT still to be done in it, and the way it's been built, it's going to take some hacking to get all the parts to work together).
I usually use CakePHP to build sites, and I've been thinking of suggesting to the client that I just re-write the whole thing from scratch, using cake. However, the sites I've built with Cake before have always been basic websites, or apps which just used PayPal for payments. This site needs to accept credit cards as a means of payment as well as PayPal, and possibly bank accounts too. Would CakePHP be a good way to build this site? I know it would work well for the behind-the- scenes building user profiles and so on, but I'm thinking in terms of security for processing transactions, preventing hacking etc. (since bank account details etc may be stored, security needs to be up a notch from the regular site security). I'd appreciate any advice, or if anyone could point me to some helpful resources, that would be a big help. Thanks!
