Join Date: Jul 2006 Posts: 1,518  | Joomla is nice, but it's a bit bloated (feature-wise), and it's ACP is a bit confusing. Obviously, it has more features + options than the default IPB Portal, but it really depends on what you are looking for. Have you taken a look at TinyPortal? Drupal? Chris | ||||

| I used it on my older site until about a month ago. The ACP is a bit overbearing to begin with and could be alot simpler. It's great if you use most of what is available and it can be edited to work for just about anything, but it was just too much for me to worry about and not quite what I was looking for. It is definitely a powerful tool if you use it correctly.
