What is the best way to lay out my CMS?

Question

Basically once the user is logged in they will be able to edit a news article and the image gallery and pdf's which will be attached to it, the image galleries can be used in multiple news articles so can the pdf's - so what is the best way to lay the CMS out?

I should have mentioned that I'm building the entire website using Codeigniter so want to build my own CMS - just really wanted some ideas on the best way to lay the CMS out.

Answer 1

Have a look at drupal I like the way they offer a edit tab or text once you are logged in .. You still navigate the site and see all the pages ..

Answer 2

Have you considerd Drupal ?

Just the Core modules of Drupal and CCK for creating your news content type, in combination with the gallery module, you will be ready to go.
