CMS Made Simple is an open source package, built using PHP with support for MySQL and PostgreSQL. The template system is driven using the Smarty Template Engine. CMS Made Simple aims to provide easy development and customization with themes, add-on modules, dynamic menus, tags and translations.

Features
