Thank you, I've started studying some open-source forum machine as well as some other CMS. And I started with the PM system which would include the normal inbox features and notifications.

A very crucial point I didn't even thought of. Thank you.

It's not a competition or something, I am making a custom blog for myself. Not really thinking to sell or have a commercial use of it and maybe I may release the source code here if I think I came up very well with this thing.

Thank you too.


So, something which are essential or say very necessary for a CMS is SECURITY. I've nearly figured out how will be the database and soon I'll head towards, optimized, precise and secure coding. Am I going right ?
