Etomite

I installed Etomite on my test server last night. It's a fairly mature PHP and MySQL content management system. The install went smoothly. The installer tried, but could not create the database, so I did that manually with PHPMyAdmin. Then the installer completed its tasks in less than a minute.

At first glance, Etomite looks good. The admin interface is clean and is well organized. The default page template looks okay. It runs quickly. Adding a new page was fast, and it automatically appeared in the main public menu. It has some built-in search engine optimization features for each page.

I need to take a closer look at how to change templates, what variety of templates are available, how it behaves when adding different kinds of content.

But, so far, it looks worthwhile.
