New Unofficial BlogEngine.NET Forum

blogfodder.co.uk — The awesome ASP.NET blogging platform BlogEngine.NET has fascinated me for a while now - I learnt so much just by looking through the solution and seeing how well it had been built. Since then I am convinced with a little 'community' love, BlogEngine.NET could also be used a CMS just like WordPress made the transition and you see a lot of sites using it as a CMS and Blog.

I've taken a look at BlogEngine.NET source code and it is not well positioned for a CMS. I doesn't appear to have gone through many (if any) code reviews as the architecture is not (IMHO) rock solid. However, BlogEngine.NET does have a lot going for it as it has a long history and neat widget support.

There are better alternatives if you are looking for a .NET CMS. See Grafitti or for open source check out BlogSvc which is still young but we are moving very quickly. It's architecture, especially with respect to roles, workspaces, collections, authorization is much better implemented. The authentication and authorization logic is not spread around in odd places like it is in BlogEngine.NET. The backend uses web standards and the data is not pigeon-holed into being a blog post. Everything is treated as an extensible entry in a collection. See AtomPub for more information.
