Wordpress vs Mambo

I have build two websites with CMS package. One is Mambo, the other is Wordpress. They all are good systems but with different features.
1: Wordpress can only be used on blog website. Mambo can be used on some other website.
2: It is very easy to install Wordpress. It only took me 5 minutes to install on the server without any problems. But Mambo took me 30 minutes or longer.
3: Wordpress has Chinese package and support Chinese very well. It is a little bit painful to use Mambor to build Chinese website, but works!
4: It is quit easy to change template in Wordpress system. You only need to unzip the template files and move them into the specified directory. Changing template in Mambo is a little bit complicated and difficult, you have to upload files from the backend and you will encounter problems most time.
Conclusion, if only want to build a personal blog, I strongly recommend using Wordpress.

A very good PHP template for website-- Mambo

I had been always looking for a PHP template that I can use to build my website. I am not a very experienced PHP developer, but I do have much PHP knowledge. Eventually, I came across Mambo. This is from a free source CMS project. It integrated a very good administrator interface as well as there are many free templates, modules available. I used Mambo to build a Chinese website dedicated to Software testing. www.studytesting.com

Add advertisement code into Mambo.

I tried to add Bidvertiser code into my website www.studytesting.com which is using Mambo template, but I met difficulty. Take me long time to find that I should add the code into the index file of the template of one module saying: "euroyellow_blue". It seems that this index file manages the layout and it shows what we are seeing on the website.
