Hi:

I would like to develop a Web site for my church, using the community edition of DotNetNuke. I made this option when I saw that the Professional Edition is about $3000.00 subscription per year! Can a full functional Web site be developed with community edition? I am new to DotNetNuke.

Thanks.

You can also use the community Edition to develope a Website.  Community Edition is the base that is also included on the professional Edition, but missed some of advanced modules and funktions. Many Websites running with the Community Edition.  It is also possible do develope own modules and Providers for the community Edition.

The Community Edition is only devivered with the HTML module, but there are many modules and skins availible from the forge or from codeplex for free.  Commecial Modules, Providers and Skins can be get from the DNNStore.

DotNetNuke needs a Windows Webhosting and should have for the future .NET 4.0 and above, and a MS SQL Database.  On a own Windows Server (virtual or dedicated) you could also Need the free MS SQL Server Express Edition.

You will be fine with the CE. The features missing between that and the Professional edition are not necessary to build a nice website.

DNN Community Editon, Pro Edition and Enterprise Editoon all three use the same framework, hence having same base performance and scalability. DNN Pro and Enterprise include a couple of modules for advanced use cases (Document Management, ECommerce, Sharepoint Connector and Content Staging Server) as well as a couple of advanced providers for optimized caching, granular permissions etc. - for most of those, there exist 3rd party extensions as well.
