Subscribe to our RSS feed to get a faster update via your favorite RSS reader or email

Although SimplyWP started as a Wordpress “blog” design, we slowly turned to a wider opportunity, which is CMS (Content Management System) by using Wordpress platform. We’ve been doing a few Wordpress as CMS site, which we think that there are things that needed to be noted down as a CMS.

Page exclude and include.

wp-page-exclude
A lot of CMS site give you a reminder at the bottom of their page, expecially in the footer. This is when page exclude and include came in. As for Wordpress theme designer, if you think a little bit more, you can actually use widget at the footer navigation as well :)

Page template

wp-page-template
Unlike blog, CMS doesn’t really start with news and update page. Instead, they might start with a landing page with everything crowded or limited content. That’s my friend is where art talks :)

Page link arrangement

wp-nav-arrange
In the end of the day, Wordpress is still PHP script made up by a human. You gonna make them listen to you.

Search form

wp-search
Search form become something very important in CMS. Because there is no loyaty visitor who follow your site from day 1 to today, and the point about CMS is providing information and information and more information.

Mailing list

This has to talk about the plugin. Google it or search in Wordpress.org plugin directory.
