Editorial Review: Product Description: Content management, blogs, and online forums are among the most significant online trends today, and Drupal, phpBB, and WordPress are three of the most popular open source applications facilitating these trends. Drupal is a full content management system that allows you to create any type of website you desire, from an e-commerce to a community-based site. phpBB enables you to set up a bulletin board or forum. And WordPress is the software of choice for the exploding blog community. All three technologies are based on PHP and MySQL. Building Online Communities with Drupal, phpBB, and Wordpress is authored by a team of experts. Robert T. Douglass recently created the Drupal-powered blog site NowPublic.com. Mike Little is a founder and contributing developer of the WordPress project. And Jared W. Smith has been a longtime support team member of phpBBHacks.com and has been building sites with phpBB since the first beta releases. Average Rating:
 Rating:  - A great book for web designers.

There has been a major reorganization of the administrative pages, leaving the information given you more likely to confuse than inform. My other major objection is that the information is ...

I found the sections very helpful and easy to understand. Rating: - Great IntroductionThis is a great introduction, at least to Drupal version 4. Note that the administration menus are significantly different for the current Drupal 5 release. I wonder if a revision is in the works? Rating:  - Theres Advanced, Basic and This book - Way To Simple!This is basically an outline for beginners ONLY. If you expect to be able to move on past simple installation and configuration, save your money! The software Drupal, phpBB and wordpress are all excellent programs. This book is an introduction to each and has nothing to do with building online communities. Way to simple. SORRY!!!
