| Posted by luespi, 06-30-2009, 12:34 AM | | I need to create a site for a client, which will be an online magazine and a facebook, so that it will have articles and forums created both by users and admin in the main front page,
but will also have facebook features, along with paid memberships
features:
-joomla, preferibly or drupal
-articles created by owner and by users
with images and videos from youtube, not from own server
-front page and rest of pages controlled by admin
-main forums created by admin and users
-users can create a profile page with different looks
and pictures
-users can have friends shown in profile accepting friends etc
-users galleries and forums
-users would need to to pay to suscribe
I have good skills at:
c++ SQL html css
poor skills at php-mysql-functions
My cuestion is:
do you think it will be possibly for a person with my programming background to create such site?
how much money and effort will it take me?
and do u know of any site where they offer programming joomla or drupal support?

Regarding facebook it is easy to integrate with drupal as drupal already have a module which will connect to facebook application.

Any large content system is going to be somewhat confusing to start off with - it's a trade-off between number of features and the possibility that having too many features makes the system too complicated for anybody to possibly fathom. I personally think that Joomla strikes a nice balance - once you've figured out what you can rip out safely and where to hook in your own database code it's all rather easy really.

Check out their extensions directory you may find what you need without hiring a programmer.
