I’m looking for a (CMS) plugin that enables my clients to ad pages to their site by themselves without my help. Is there a plugin or stack that makes this possible ?

I will also be releasing a new CMS next week, featuring direct page editing and Cartloom product adding. But if you truly need client ability for new pages, I believe Pulse CMS is your best option.

@Bartje Feel free to reach out if you have any questions about Armadillo’s ability to create pages. @robbeattie is right that it’s a lesser known feature as there don’t seem to be as many people who need it compared to blogging, but I do consider it key functionality and would love any feedback on h…

Best CMS? That really depends on scale (among other things). For med/large sites, RapidWeaver would not be my choice - that’s for sure. WordPress, Drupal (and many other open-source free CMS platforms) are much better equipped than RapidWeaver to handle the job.

Total CMS’s blog feature can work as well. Since each blog post has its own unique content, there is no reason that you could not use it for adding pages to the site. You would have to get creative if we wanted to add those pages to a menu. However, there are many ways that this could be accomplishe…

What’s missing from this discussion is pricing. Armadill0 $40 TotalCMS $99/site PulseCMS $195/site or $297/year subscription for mutiple sites. Please correct me if I’m incorrect. I don’t know they are direct competitors?

That looks right Bob (which is why I rolled my own) [image] Free CMS for RapidWeaver! RapidWeaver This CMS uses WordPress as the back end (though you can just as easily go direct to MySQL or some other CMS) Install WordPress → wp-config.php to get DB credentials → …

Actually, you can pay $297 for Pulse CMS and use that for multiple sites forever. This also gets you 12 months of support and updates. The sites etc will continue to work and you can add new sites even after that year. You only need to pay $297/year if you want to continue to receive major updates. …

Don’t forget there are others as well. Easy CMS is $50 one off fee and - I think - is really quite powerful. SeyDesign Sentry is £20.00 one off and looks good for editing text and photos Kuler Edits 2.0 is $19.00 one off and looks to have a similar feature set to Sentry Rob

Brilliant synopsis @habitualshaker and better than I’ve ever done - I’ll look at rewording the site! :slight_smile:

Armadillo is a great option and reasonably priced. Jonathan is always available to help if you run into trouble. His service is second to none. He spent at least an hour holding my hand. His patience and expertise are second to none. I can’t compare it to anything else as I never used anything else…

Best CMS system?
