    Website content mangement systems?

    What content management system does your church use for website management?  Ie. Joomla, Drupal, Wordpress, phpNuke, custom code, faithhighway, cloversites, etc.

    We are in the process of redesigning our website and would like to know what other churches are doing.

    Thanks

    We're using Joomla, but we haven't integrated F1 yet.

    Joomla.  We loaded a style sheet that matches our colors on F1 and just use the standard linking.  However we are watching the new RESTful API F1 is comming out with and have plans to integrate with it.  According to our developer we have on contract it will be pretty easy to get tight integration using Joomla wrappers or some modules he is going to create... but its a bit early yet to know.

    It's cool other churches are using Joomla.  Here is something of interest to you guys...  I wrote a Joomla 1.5.x authentication plugin for F1.  You can get it Download it Here

    Just login to the Joomla admin interface, select go to Extensions->Install/Uninstall then browse to the zip file and upload.  Once installed you need to enter your church code(weblink church code) and a user that has data exchange permissions.

    If you use the Joomla login module, this will allow you to login using an F1 weblink account... so you see what possiblities this gives you.

    Enjoy

    We are working with a development partner on a new site that uses Drupal as the CMS, and our partner has selected Acquia Drupal to help simplify support.  Our plan is to tie in to F1 once the new APIs are out.
