I've used both Rapidweaver, but not the latest version 6, and WordPress for web sites. Depends whether only Macs are used to maintain the web site or might want to use a PC. if the latter then Wordpress is good enough. If just a Mac then both are viable but you should also check Sandvox by Karelia - you can download a trial. Karelia aim Sandvox as the successor to Apple's iWeb!
Calendars are normally the weakest area. Most people seem to use Google's Calendar function which works but difficult to get it to match the UX of the web site, maybe impossible. WordPress offers a calendar widget but I've never tried using it. If I was starting over I'd use Wordpress instead of Rapidweaver as I think RealMac, local as they may be, have lost their way as far as the market they target - too much aimed at pro-web site developers these days. There are some fairly decent books in WHSmith in using WordPress, and there are plenty of e-books that are cheap to see if tit will fit your needs Regards, Tony Sent from my iPad > On 4 Nov 2014, at 16:10, Phil Tomlinson <[email protected]> > wrote: > > Our old village website, created with Drupal, needs remaking.
