Well.. I will very unclear in my arguments against Drupal, and because english isnt my native language, isnt easy for me to express all my points.
I have tried. Really, I did. But I have been defeated by Drupal.
Few weeks ago, I have chosen CivicSpaceLabs (a Drupal distro) as the CMS for some websites I have to develope for some clients. The websites should be for online communities (basically, they should have a forum and maybe other community tools).
I was very excited about starting to learn and use Drupal for some clients.
But now, all the enthusiasm of the begining has gone.
The last weeks, I was devoted to learn Drupal, by reading documentation and tutorials and forums from various source, especially from Drupal Site and Bryght, and also from CivicSpace and from sother Drupal users and enthusiast sites. And of course, I also was playing (well... not really playing but fighting) with Drupal configurations, phpTemplates, lot of style-sheets, etc.
But, let's start from the begining: the installation was succesul. It's a very-easy-to-install script.
Then, all became to become more difficult...
And I'm not the kind of people that want everything to be easy. I love challenges, and certainly, Drupal started to become a challenge.... a really difficult one.
During this weeks, my taskbar was full of windows, specially, a lot of Firefox windows, plenty full of tabs with content from Drupal site and Bryght sites.
