As I mentioned in another thread here, I run my website on Joomla. But now I am considering to move it to another CMS, maybe Drupal or even Wordpress. What does it take to move your website to another CMS?

That is dependent on the content you have. It is possible that you have plugins that the other CMS does not have. Here is what I know it will require

-Skin port
-Content transfer(scripts may exist for it)
-Plugin/addon ports

Why do you want to switch? Just make sure that it is worth the effort.

Thanks Village. I share freebies (mostly ebooks) on my website and use DocMan to manage the downloadable files. The main problem with Joomla is that it's difficult to make the URL search engine friendly. I have tried several extensions including sh404 SEF but none of them worked well.
