Is CMF worth investing the wicked steep learning curve. I really am banging my head against the wall with it. Mainly in terms of how to make it look like and feel like a normal website and not one that members need to know what folder an article is published in. It's all
Uhh, unless you provide links, you need to know what folder a given document is in on *any* website. If you need a site with membership, and one where members need to have a low bar for content addition, then CF is appropriate.If not, well, it is a *FRANEWORK*, not an out of the box website, and you'll have to do development. This is true regardless of CMF. Zope serves almost no needs 100% out of the box. Heck I even use it for a site where only I publish content. I use the document, news item, and some semi-cloned document objects, to provide what I need almost effortlessly. Just as with any tool, it depends on your need. A hammer can drive a screw, but a screwdriver is better. If you are having a hard time, you may want to reconsider if CMF is the right tool for your job. Bill
