Yep...I have one site running phpNuke and another running postNuke.
My thoughts:
- For new users, postnuke is MUCH easier to install. It utilizes an install script that takes you through the setup process 1 step at a time.
- In my opinion, the Admin panel is not as polished as phpNuke, but that is not to say it isn't easy to use.
- Pretty much the same functions, although postnuke appears to have more pre-installed modules than phpnuke does
- Phpnuke (v. 6.5) comes with phpBB pre-installed...postnuke does not. However, there is a module to incorporate phpBB (v.2.04) into postnuke.
- I have found phpNuke to be rather buggy in comparison to postnuke.
- Both are themeable and have an active developer community
Basically, you'll get the same functionality regardless which one you choose to use. Both are wonderful if you want to set up a website that is easy to maintain and update.
Here are the links to both sites I'm setting up so you can compare:
http://www.supporttheforce.org - postnuke
http://www.familypen.com - phpNuke
Of course...both are hosted on Totalchoice
Let me know if you have any additional questions...
