Publishing Nirvana
A CMS that just works, so you can focus on your content.
Pubvana is a modern content management system that comes with everything you need at your fingertips. SEO, security, media management, social sharing, analytics, multilingual support, scheduled publishing, backups, and a built-in marketplace. It's all there from day one. No hunting for add-ons just to get the basics working. Best part, it's free!
Write Your Way
Switch between a rich-text editor and Markdown with one click. Every edit is saved automatically, so you can compare changes or roll back to any previous version whenever you want.
Write now, publish later. Schedule posts for any future date and see your whole content calendar at a glance. Gate premium posts behind a login for subscribers manually or with our automated plugin, create standalone pages, and choose what your homepage looks like: a blog feed, a static page, or something entirely custom.
SEO That's Already Done
Meta titles, descriptions, Open Graph tags, structured data, sitemaps, RSS feeds... it's all handled for you automatically. Your content is search-engine friendly the moment you hit publish. No setup, no configuration, no extra tools.
Themes That Look Great and Stay Safe
Pubvana themes are sandboxed, meaning they can't run code on your server. You can install and switch themes with confidence. Every theme adapts your widgets automatically, so things just look right without any manual tweaking.
Pick from free and premium themes in the built-in marketplace, or grab one from the community. Theme options are managed through a simple admin panel, no file editing required.
13 Built-In Widgets
Add widgets into your sidebars, footers, and content areas:
- Recent & Related Posts to keep readers engaged
- Categories & Tags to help people find what they're looking for
- Search for your whole site
- Archive List to browse by month or year
- Social Links to show off your profiles with icons
- Author Bio that automatically pulls the post author's info
- Table of Contents auto-generated from your headings
- Recent Comments showing the latest conversations at a glance
- Language Picker for multilingual sites
- Text Block & Ad Unit for custom content or ad code anywhere
- Paywall CTA to promote your premium content
Every widget automatically matches your active theme's look and feel.
Plugins When You Want More
Browse and install plugins from the Pubvana Marketplace right inside your admin panel. Plugins get their own section in your Admin sidebar, manage their own settings, and are checked for safety before activation.
Building something custom? There's a clean, documented plugin system for that too.
Built-In Analytics
See how your site is doing without adding any tracking scripts. Pubvana tracks page views on its own: top posts, top referrers, day-by-day trends, all right in your dashboard. Want Google Analytics too? Just drop in your tracking ID. But you don't need it for the basics.
Security You Don't Have to Think About
Two-factor authentication, role-based access for your team, spam protection on forms and comments, sandboxed themes and plugins, email alerts when account details change, and automatic checks for unsafe add-ons. It's all built in and turned on by default.
Speaks Your Language
Twenty Four languages ship built in, with locale-aware URLs, a language picker widget, and full admin translations. Using Pubvana to a multilingual site? It's ready to go.
Backups and Updates Without the Stress
Pubvana backs up your entire site (content, themes, plugins, uploads, database, everything) and keeps a rotation of recent backups you can restore with one click.
Updates check compatibility with your installed themes and plugins before they run, back up your site automatically, and show you real-time progress so you always know what's happening. If anything goes sideways, roll back in seconds.
And There's More
- Social sharing that auto-posts to Twitter/X and Facebook when you publish
- Social login so visitors can sign in with Google or Facebook
- Affiliate link manager with short links and click tracking
- Broken link checker that finds dead links across your site
- Redirects managed right from the admin
- Contact form built in with spam protection
- WordPress importer to bring your content over in minutes
- Activity log showing who did what and when

Pubvana runs on standard, shared PHP hosting. No special infrastructure, no managed hosting plans required. It's lightweight, fast, and works with Apache or Nginx. Probably the kind of hosting you already have.
Easy Installation
We even provide easy installation with our autoinstaller. Simply upload the installer to the server folder you want to run Pubvana from, unzip it, point your browser to it and follow the easy prompts.
