I've probably been one of the biggest proponents of a vbCMS platform for the longest time. It's probably the next step in terms of building a community.But I've finally gotten fed up with the delays, the silence and procrastination of the CMS.
Granted what Freddie has shown us recently is awesome, and spectacular, I'm afraid it's months off before we will see anything remotely in beta where we could use.
Plus as I'm sure it is the case for many others, there have been key instances where we've needed a CMS this past year because of new titles or subjects and we've pretty much missed the boat because we've been sitting around waiting for something.
As I've noted a few weeks earlier that I've found a killer application.
Last month, I came across a brand new CMS called Contentteller. It's an open source CMS under the GNU/GPL Licensing. After a few moments of playing with it, I discovered it to be pretty much almost the CMS I need. Plus, I'd argue it's the CMS killer and the first nail against vBCMS.
Vile and I have been both playing around with it for the last two weeks, and I'd have to argue we were both pleasantly surprised and what it packs.
It's an awesome CMS. While rigid to a certain extent, it's a very versatile CMS. With one system, I can design and manage multiple unique websites. Plus it integrates (yes integrates) with vBulletin's systems. It takes advantage of the vBulletin's user system and works in conjunction with the vBulletin user system while not creating any additional user records.
I love the fact the most that I can manage and build multiple unique websites, have unique styles, yet use one common interface to distribute information. Say for example I have a news item that matches two topics on two sites, I can post it once and it will appear on both sites. No more copy/pasting a news piece twice.
Plus I love how comments for news are pulled from the forum threads created after submission.
My only main criticism would be that it's user handling is a bit clumsy. You still need to create users to administrate the site, but it's a bit clumsy. The system could use a lesson in terms of usergroup management and admin permissions from Jelsoft.
But overall, I'd argue this is the CMS 90% of us could use. It's powerful, it can manage multiple websites, and best of all it integrates well with vBulletin.
Plus there are a few nice addons available to download over at vBulletin.org too to bring together the integration process even closer.
Check out what a few nights of work has produced.
I urge you those who are looking for a decent CMS to consider Contentteller. It's a very decent system and I think it's going to hard to beat. At this current point in time, I'd highly recommend Contentteller to all vBulletin owners
