Pages Manager vs CMS - El Forum - 11-15-2011

[eluser]craig.hoog[/eluser]
I'm starting a new project in CI and I need some advice.
Previously I had used things like PyroCMS and Ionize, etc to create content management solutions with CodeIgniter, but this new project is something entirely different.

I am building a website management system that has to manage pages, but also "specials", inventory, and have various other modules.

Now what I'm debating is whether I should be using the core CI install and making modules for each requirement (pages manager, specials manager, etc) or if I should be using a CMS and trying to add the modules to that. I don't have much experience with any CMS beyond using them "as is" but I've torn CI to shreds for various projects and am completely comfortable with that.

Just looking for any suggestions before I dive down one road and regret it after 2 weeks of coding Smile

Thanks!
