WordPress as a CMS – Part 1

If you’ve been around Nicasio Design & Development long enough, you’ve probably noticed that we’re always talking about using WordPress as a CMS. But what exactly is this CMS thing anyway, and why should you use it? Let’s break it down.

CMS stands for content management system. WordPress’ administrative area turns it into a CMS because it provides a WYSIWYG (What You See Is What You Get) editor similar to a mini-version of Microsoft Word. Basically, anyone that knows how to work Microsoft Word will be able to add and edit web content themselves without having to know any technical junk, like HTML. Below is a screenshot that shows what a WYSIWYG editor in WordPress looks like. Once you type in the box and hit save, whatever you’ve written is automatically published. It’s that simple.

One of the most positive findings of this report is how satisfied users are with WordPress, as the illustration below illustrates.

telfair_homeNicasio Design, in collaboration with brightwhitespace, is proud to announce the launch of our latest WordPress project: Telfair.org. For those in the Savannah, GA area, The Telfair museums need no introduction. The Telfair Academy, Jepson Center for the Arts, and Owens-Thomas House are at the forefront of the art community in Savannah. These internationally renowned museums needed a new website with an innovative design that allowed them to categorize, manage and add new content pertaining to all three of their museums. The solution was of course a custom WordPress site.
