You can use Wordpress - I would, but if you have never used it before you might have a lot of learning to do. :) I built a business directory a few years ago, it was my first PHP project - didn't take too long really, it was pretty simple...
I planned to get stuck into wordpress, because that seems to be where it´s at! I´ve seen Chris´s video tut- PSD to wordpress- but can anyone recommend a more recent build along Wordpress tutorial? Is Chris´s tutorial very outdated??
Yea just to clear that up - I made my directory without wordpress and just coded it from scratch.
On the video: Yes it probably is a little dated by now - especially for some of the newer awesome features... but I would look into things like custom post types and custom taxomonies (categories) as an add on to the video Chris made.
I´m thinking of creating a local business directory, with one line listings, and paid photo ads....what platform would people recommend for this?
Thanks
Is wordpress a good option? I hear it has plug ins for directories.
