djgary72 Posted December 11, 2012 Share Posted December 11, 2012 Best way to go with websites these days is use Wordpress, It takes a fair bit of learning but it's easier than trying to code just a php website.

PapaBearPW Posted December 11, 2012 Share Posted December 11, 2012 I'm kinda partial to Joomla! (Free) myself. I have even made a couple modules for it (i.e. the NativeRadio flash radio player available for free on my site). Huge collection of modules and components (free and commercial) can be found on their extensions page as well. http://www.joomla.org/ http://extensions.joomla.org/ I have also heard a lot of good stuff about wordpress, I've just never tried it out myself. http://www.lunarcaster.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PapaBearPW Posted December 11, 2012 Share Posted December 11, 2012 Joomla is a pre-built php powered website, much like wordpress is. Dreamweaver et al. are not needed. All you need is a mysql database for it to connect with. There are a number of video tutorials available on youtube that will walk you through the installation process (search for "install joomla" or "install wordpress" on youtube depending on what you decide to go with for example) which will be much better than me trying to explain it here. http://www.lunarcaster.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lmarrie Posted December 12, 2012 Share Posted December 12, 2012 WordPress is SUPER simple. Here is the shell of my radio station homepage I'm building in WordPress http://www.verbradio.com and this is a completed site I will be launching soon http://www.myvirtuouslife.com also built in WordPress. And as I've said before my knowledge is very slight in these areas. http://img208.imageshack.us/img208/1069/vrnlogopng.png www.verbradio.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

powerfmonline Posted December 13, 2012 Share Posted December 13, 2012 Agreed with Wordpress! I've worked with mock and live radio websites on Drupal, Joomla (countless versions) and Wordpress and I have to say Wordpress has been the best to work with. Our site is based on the old Z100 (and other clear channel) sites www.powerfmonline.co.uk and we're still working on developing/ improving it! If you can, try going for a prebuilt theme or a framework, this is a good theme and free! http://wordpress.org/extend/themes/graphene H[url=http://wordpress.org/extend/themes/graphene][/url]ope it helps Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

immokaleeman Posted December 20, 2012 Share Posted December 20, 2012 If you have any web issues or questions, contact me. Wordpress is the way to go in my opinion. Completely customizable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
