"[...] I think that b2evolution is poised to become the next big thing in blogging software.

[...] The only real problem with b2evolution is that not enough people know about it...

[...] I think that the people developing b2evolution are smart and have the pulse of the blogging scene."

"Soooo easy to set up!

My first site, I had a few template issues, but no issues with the software. B2Evolution is pretty neat so far. The second site took less than a day to work out and again, that was designing the template, getting that running and the blog set up was quick. Waaaay cooler than what i used to use before. (GM and Blogger)

Anyway, thanks for the great software."

The backend is more configurable and powerful than WP. It's more like a CMS than a blog and it has several powerful features like multi-blogging and per-post enabling/disabling post filters (like smilies, smart quotes, auto-links and other code) etc.

It doesn't have a WYSIWYG editor, but the editor itself has a lot of goodies (in "expert" mode). Just check out a demo of b2evolution at www.b2evolution.net. ;)

Really cool.

"I just now installed b2e on my test server, and I must say I'm impressed. The installation went flawlessly and was impossibly easy to do, and I'm quite impressed by all of the configuration options. The configuration files are very easy to understand, too. I'm currently poking around to see what I found, but it took just a few seconds to import my 1500+ old posts into the new database. I'm extremely pleased and can't wait to see what I can do with it."

Wish all FOSS project developers were half as obliging!

" Hi there, I'm new to b2evo but I just wanted to say thanks.

After going through the FAQ, I went sifting through the forum trying to answers to oddball questions that I still had. All throughout I've been reading your posts and I found it very refreshing to find someone who takes time out to respond without being sarcastic or degrading to newbies as I've seen on other sites.

Because of the thoroughness of your replies, I haven't had to post anything to the forum yet, I've always managed to find the answer.

Thanks again,"

Thanks! to you and your team. Your product is SUPERB - head and shoulders above all the others. I say that for one simple reason - the comprehensive documentation makes the whole thing incredibly easy by explaining in simple terms what goes on, and how to customise it. Let your rivals take note. I am immensely impressed - very well done!!
