I'm building a community website (not WoW related) and am curious what, if any, framework(s) Wowhead may use. The general, non-WoW specific functions of the site are near identical to what I need.

A few of the features I'm interested in are:

Item page comments
User/Account management
Forums
Blog
Content Management
Search box suggestion

I'm sure allot of their site is custom built but I assume that some portions may be third-party solutions, like the forums and blog.

I just don't want to reinvent the wheel if it's out there ready for me to make use of.
