b2evolution - content and community management system

 b2evolution is a free and open-source content management system (CMS) that is primarily focused on blogging and community features. 


The key points about b2evolution:

  • It is a medium-scale CMS centered around the blog concept, allowing you to run multiple blogs, photo galleries, forums, and other content types on a single platform.
  • b2evolution provides content/presentation separation, full user management, internationalization, workflow management, and extends beyond just blogging to include wiki-like and forum features.
  • It is highly customizable, with the ability to use different skins (themes) and widgets to control the look and layout of your website.
  • b2evolution is designed to be an "all-in-one" solution, aiming to provide everything you need to build a full-featured community website without requiring many third-party plugins.
  • While not as popular as WordPress, b2evolution has been around since 2003 as a fork of the original b2/cafelog blogging platform. It has a dedicated user community, though support and documentation may not be as extensive as WordPress.
  • The latest stable version is 7.2.5, released in 2022. b2evolution is written in PHP and uses a MySQL database.
