Deciding upon a content management system is highly vital to your success I advocate Drupal. Because Seeing that the biggest government websites use Durpal, I picked Drupal For a development platform I selected Pantheon with features like SFTP access to build on-server What solution do you like?<br /><a href="https://drupal.org/node/2014127" rel="nofollow">Drupal Dedicated Hosting</a><br /><br />Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09558750082710156898noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-979574082424508337.post-18455018925524902662012-11-20T16:21:26.248+01:002012-11-20T16:21:26.248+01:00"Oh!

You always run the risk of module a not having a specific functionality that (at some point in time) you (or your client) will be needing. So (at some point) you'll be spending time either looking for an extra module, a replacement module or create a new module.<br /><br />Easy (and basic) example is that drupal 7 still has no "Rich text editor" so you install (for example) the CKEditor... module, next you want to select an image and not memorize where you uploaded every image so you install the IMCE extension. The next step is ofcourse that you want to create folders in IMCE so you install the 'imce_mkdir' module and then there might be something else you might need that isn't supported (or provided) by CKEditor/IMCE/... and you will spend more time on installing (and configuring) modules.<br /><br />The above example doesn't take much time installing and setting up, but if you need to do more complex stuff, you 'll need to spend more time to 'investigate' what module is better in the current situation and the current module might need a few extra modules to do exactly what you need it to do. <br /><br />And since they usually say "time = money", you might (sometimes) be cheaper with a secure 'vendor lock-in' then a CMS that needs updating every so often.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07763757726880076610noreply@blogger.com
