many presales questions about features

Hello

now I am searching for a CMS system for my new site.
and actually i am interested in that features:

1.breadcrumb feature. (this is the most important for me, because I plan a site with a lot of articles with subcategories, so it would be very helpful for users and for me to know there we are on this site), smt like

category->subcategory->article title

2. Subcategory support

3.Something like statistics such as the number of articles on your site.

4.backup & restore database feature.

5.google friendly urls
is it possible to do that docs will show titles of articles in the top line of browser instead of just site name?

6. images inside articles, news or stories, not only teaser image

7. articles rating (I see there are comments inyour systems, but I can;t found the rate feature)

8.how much flexible templates are? i see some site powered by storyteller, but they all use only 3 tables design, i need some more complexity like a portal. would it possible to insert storyteller variables in my own design?

9.Polls: are there multichoice option?

10. Integration with IPB. What actually it does and how it works?
does it copy a n ipb members database and then create new one at both databases when new user registers, or smth else.

thanks a lot
:)

Perhaps in 2-3 months

Not in every article, just in the template for the articles

thanks for answers

As I understand it only on your plans, not developing yet. Winking Face

From the list above ratings feature and multichoice poll would be very nice to have, but the subcategories is a must be for me site, because I have a lot of it and a lot of articles to put on my site.

Breadcrumb is also very useful and it has a lot with usability for large site, like a good navigational feature.
I would like to see this automated. As you said it could be done through templates, so as I understand it sounds like to add it manually for every article?

Or take a look at this, maybe it would be useful working on v2.0
This is a free script of breadcrumbs, perhaps it could be also inserted in templates as php variable. I don't know, didn't take a closer look yet.

Subcategory support is planned for version 2.0 later this year

On the main page? This could be done with the templates as well

4.backup & restore database feature.

There is no backup feature right now, because many providers run PHP in safe mode (30 second limit for scripts). Personal, I would use SSH or phpMyAdmin (if preinstall by your provider) to backup or restore your database

Yes, both news and articles show the titles. Storyteller generate also keywords for each article.

Yes, this is possible. There is also a thumbnail function

Very flexible. You can even add PHP code to the templates

Both scripts will access the IPB member database for login and new registrations

Let me know if you have other questions.
