[quote="webmedic"][quote="Wayne Luke"][quote="webmedic"]sounds like you want postnuke .8 Seriously we have most of those completed the 3 column thing will be a part of posntuke .8 and the theme engine is backwards compatable with older verions of posntuke also.[/quote]

Actually I have looked at Postnuke many times and the code is not up to the quality that I look for in a project. I doubt I would ever use it or any other php-nuke derivative. I am looking for a CMS not a portal.[/quote]

Well you have not seen .8 and if you had looked at the code you would easily see that any module could be taken out or added as needed in any release of postnuke. That is the nice part about postnuke. 

As for users I'm not sure about which is the most used I know we get at least 10,000 visitors a day on the site not including the forums wich are down right now for security updates(phpbb fault not ours). The forums have 10,000 members and the site has over 46,000 members. If thats not enough for you then well I dont know. 

Now to cover the cms part. Well that is part of .8 also. I assume oyu mean being able to handle static content and the like also is you would have looked a little there are alreadt modules available to do that now. Paged and one other are available. It is very easy to add this and just leave off the news module if you dont want it. Just like it would be easy top add a commerce module along with ap, ar, gl, and any other type of module you may want to use.

That is the one reason why postnyuke has flurished because of the ease of use and the ability to easily customize it. This is only going ot get better. The modularity really sets it apart in this respect.[/quote]

Why don't you just face it and live up to the fact that I will not use your garbage product. If it is suitable for others then they can use it. I do not want a portal system with a CMS module. I want a CMS, a shop, a Links directory. I want them completely separate and distinct from each other. I want each of them to use different databases. I do not want an overloaded piece of bloat trying to be all things to all websites. Each site is different and requires different tools not the same tool with different modules. Your solution is like using Microsoft Word to create spreadsheets and while it might give you the basics, there are going to be issues when you want advanced features later.
