Hello,
Any of you tried Mambo?
Yes, I try (
hardly) to create with it usable sites, and have one my site on this <censored> stuff
From non-developer POV - it
- lacks usable modules in wide area
- has ... well... "problematic" concept of separating components (modules in Xoops) and modules (blocks in Xoops), overloaded complexity (forgot to note another creatures - mosbots) as results... You never know before, what you have to have in order to get "this part and this" to work
I can't read Mambo themes without
- they are unreadable in editor (but biggest part look nicer than most of XOOPS themes, IMHO)
From reading news and user's comments: each even minor update is
big headache for mambers: now they are in movement form 4.5 to 4.5.1 and ... it's not obvious process, even flash-instruction posted as manual
In my tests I see XOOPS works faster - even on more complex site (same host) XOOPS loads ~2x faster
I had to find editor, which will work
- in WYSWYG mode in FireFox
- without glithes
and (partially) failed in such research
For XOOPS I didn't try find alternatives (I have, but it's not "must have" replacement)
Also...
Docman (file-archive) is ugly, forum is "infant terrible"
I can continue this "blacklist" after continued attempts made in Mambo that
I want, not that
Mambo think I want
