How Is Ip.content Conpare To Drupal?

[Panupat]

Still deciding what would be best for my website. Anyone have experience using both of these? I am set to use Ip.Board but still deciding on the CMS. I have no experience using CMS but I am quite comfortable working with codes.

 

From what I gathered, ip.content will be the easiest to make my main page have the same look as the i.board. and to pull information from ip.board to be shown on the page. While Drupal has a very good file management system but the IPB integration could break when I upgrade either of the software.

 

My website has a lot of data and tons of pages; I estimate upwards 200+ pages. Most of them will be static pages however. In this case how would ip.content do compare to Drupal?

I have never used Drupal so I can't compare. I do know that all your static pages can be duplicated with Invision Community Pages. If you are comfortable with code you will be able to do anything you like with Invision Community Pages. If you use the forum wrapper all the pages on your site will have the same look. They will inherit the style from the forum. So if you change to another style or have more than one style which ever style your users choose will make the whole site in that style.

 

I have only used the file manager for a short time and I can tell you it is very good.

Still playing with the ipb demo. I can't find the file listing in the ip.content. So finding the file to edit or adding them to other pages are quite difficult... Can you give me some advice please?

Drupal is more of a true CMS than Invision Community Pages is right now.

 

Invision Community Pages is good for building pages manually (last time I used it any way), drupal is probably better if you're going to need a lot of pages created. But again, I haven't used Invision Community Pages in a LONG time and they've made a lot of improvements to it since then.
