Point?

 

WordPress isn’t a full blown CMS…IT can be used as one however if you know what your doing. You can define a different homepage in the control panel and on the codex(I think it’s there) there is a good article on using WP code in other pages.

It’s possible but in my opinion it’s fine just being a weblog.

I think this issue starts from a wrong ideia. I already discussed with a friend of mine that WordPress IS NOT a Content Management System but a Weblog System but it is so good that people start to wish it is.

A Weblog system is a personal diary and we must assume that the people that we invite to be co-authors are our personal friends and that they are people we trust.

A CMS system does not need to have friends around but it need to have a very tight Workflow to avoid the kind of problems mentioned already.

If you wan't a CMS with Roles and Levels and a big professional Workflow then you should choose something like ezPublish or Typo3 and not a blog system. A good example is at http://www.care2x.org/ made with Typo3.

If you just wan't to blog keep yourself with Wordpress.

Even if you need something that is more than a Webolog but not necessarely a full blown CMS you can stick with something Drupal (or Civicspace). Good example at http://www.culturekitchen.com/

Thanks to FOSS you have a lot of options. Diferent solutions for diferent needs. Don't try to make it all-in-one.

Best,

Lopo
