Title: Concrete5 Website Software
Post by: QuadShot on August 11, 2011, 08:37:41 AM
Has anyone had experience with, or know anything about this software? I'm "thinking" of eventually moving my www.talescast.com (http://www.talescast.com) website away from iWeb, but want something very easy to update, but gives me the creative freedom I have with iWeb...

No idea?  Just move it to Wordpress!

Rico,
I thought about that, but WordPress is still pretty new to me. I have quite a few pages on my website with "living" content (constantly updating, etc). Is that possible with WordPress?

If you mean the content is being updated via Javascript, I'm pretty sure WordPress supports that. I'm not an expert on it though.

billybob, yeah, you lost me at java! :) I'm a pretty simple guy. I'd like to be able to customize a WP website to have a similar look and functionality to the iWeb site (www.talescast.com (http://www.talescast.com)). It's probably possible, but how "techy" would I need to be to do that?

WYSIWYG...that's what I'm looking for! That's pretty much what iWeb is.

Just got some news that Adobe released the beta of their "Muse" product. Might not be exactly what you're looking for but I thought I'd post it here:
