Forum: Fixing WordPress
In reply to: A simple newbie questionThanks guys. WordPress has a couple of other advantages too. Firstly, I found out that there’s a local WordPress User Group, near where I live and secondly, a friend of mine is quite experienced with WordPress (though admittedly, only to build blog sites).
Getting back to my original question though… I would definitely need to be able to design a form for the site and (ideally) I’d like the form to have the same look & feel as the other pages. In other words, if the other pages were based on a template, my form would need the same look & feel. This is where everything falls down with Xara. Can that be done with WordPress?

In reply to: A simple newbie questionDrupal has now been suggested to me as a possible alternative to WordPress. Checking out the Drupal web site, it does seem to be quite well suited to my needs. Does anyone here have any experience or comments about Drupal?

In reply to: A simple newbie questionI program bespoke applications for the Film & Television industry (for example to convert media from one manufacturer’s format to some other manufacturer’s format). I’m not involved in web programming (or web site design) in any way. Hence why I’m looking for tools that make web design easy. Xara, to be fair, is pretty good in that respect. It doesn’t go far enough but it has a simple aim, to ease the process of designing a simple web site. It doesn;t do anything fancy but AFAICT, it’s pretty good at what it does do.
