Once again, Xoops jumps into the breach and does not fail. This site took me all of 3 days to get tweaked into place and go live with. Of course, I did not go so far as to get into a custom theme. What was needed here was Rapid Deployment, and in that, Xoops has no peers that I know of. Better logo is on the way. At the end of the day, one thing I am NOT is a graphics artist.
Next up: Bidding on a site for an Automotive Detailer and Used Car Dealership. Xoops will handle that one, too. No probs at all.
I'm telling you guys, this stuff is about as easy as falling out of bed, and a lot more fun.
Kudos to the Core Coders and the Module Developers for making this stuff happen. I look at Xoops and simply see a wide vista of possibilities. As far as the eye can see.
