I have been testing this out all day and the great part about it is how much code control you get. There are three main files.

Index.php - the layout of the website

snews.php - all the code behind it

style.css - pretty basic style sheet

It is too under developed for clients but for a designer that knows code and knows exactly how they want their site to look and feel, this is a simple way to achieve that with little to no knowledge of PHP.

This is not the most robust CMS I have ever played with, but I was able to download and install it in a matter of minutes and was testing out all the features. They have some very nice functionality for a free CMS and with the control you get it's worth every penny!

Some minor tweaks that would be nice would be a more robust WYSIWYG editor, and better image upload support. Also being able to select from different templates or "index.php" files would be nice to use for multiple pages. This is a great start.

Thanks,

Seth
