I finalized all major tasks involved in migrating to concrete5. This here marks the end of my attempt to migrate to joomla. I have to say that out of all the CMS’s I tested, concrete5 seems the most easy and yet feature sufficient (as in core level) targeting the needs of my site. It is such that I might be able to migrate my gallery from gallery2 to concrete5 which if happens will mean that I will migrate all my sites to concrete5, including my web directory. And, excluding this blog of course which will remain on wordpress 😛
I like to keep things unified but I am yet to nail things down security wise. Joomla add-ons were always full of security issues which is why I kind of hated joomla. I don’t think there was one week without a security notice being circulated on the internet. Now with concrete5 … well, the userbase is small which in turn makes the CMS itself not be targeted so much so there may be issues and they may be found much later than in case of joomla. That’s a risk I’ll have to take.
But, as mentioned, it’s core provides almost all the functionality I needed which means that there will be few 3rd party stuff that are usually the ones prone to security issues.
Well, that;s enough for now, I have to get back to RTFM-ing on the concrete5 advanced security settings.
