Found this song https://freemusicarchive.org/music/Yung_Kartz/August_2018/Mars_1797
while cleaning up my old functions; I found my krui function. Still works!
Looking into setting up a new cms sort of website for a local org. Nationbuilder comes to mind and it would work, but after giving the basic info for setup I got the pricing:
14-day free trial
For your free trial period, you will have access to all of the features of our Pro plan (starting at $179/mo). After your free trial ends on Feb 15, 2024, you will be billed the monthly price of $179, plus any applicable taxes, based on the size of your database.
Change or cancel your plan at any time
You can cancel at any time during your trial period, or downgrade to our more limited Starter plan (starting at $34/mo) in your control panel settings.
Ok so that's a bit pricey, though it could work, and it would actually accept donations.
Looking onward to CiviCRM, it's open source 👍 but it still costs as follows (apparently their paid hosting is called Spark)
- Spark Starter - $15/month
- Spark Essentials - $30/month
- Spark Prop - $50/month
When it comes to self-hosting civicrm I can see these platforms:
- Install CiviCRM on Backdrop
- Install CiviCRM on Drupal
- Install CiviCRM on Joomla
- Install CiviCRM on WordPress
- Install CiviCRM (Standalone)
Of them I'm most interested in the standalone one for starters, though it might be time to do a review of the big php cms options.
