Long-time Joomla user here (for other for profit sites). Our nonprofit is now using an HTML site with a blog after multiple frustrating experiences with Joomla.

We love it, use it for all our new sites. It is very flexible, can integrate wonderfully with CiviCRM so I'm told however we are moving to integrate Salesforce with our Joomla work. Takes a bit of learning- the structure and concepts are tough if you've not dealt with CMS before. So many awesome...

Has anyone developed and packaged a standard set of non-profit-ready extensions, modules, and/or plugins for an open-source CMS like WordPress, Drupal, or Joomla? I would appreciate any leads. I'm thinking of something like ScholarPress , a project that describes itself as "a hub for developing...
