Most open source WCMSs have the capability to support add-ons, which provide

extended capabilities including forums, blog, wiki, web-stores, photo-galleries, contact-

management, etc. These are often called modules, nodes, widgets, add-ons or extensions. Add-ons

may be based on an open-source or paid licence model.

Hybrid System:

Some systems combine the offline and online approaches. Some systems write outexecutable code (e.g. JSP,ASP,PHP,ColdFusion, or Perl pages) rather than just static HTML, so

that the CMS itself does not need to be deployed on every Web server. Other hybrids operate in

either an online or offline mode
