Two suggestions for version 2
Posted: Fri Mar 16, 2007 1:15 pm
I've just spent an intense morning with my Website manager trying to get the CMSMS implementation to conform to his designs. A lot of this has been playing with stylesheets, and in the process a couple of gotchas have come up.
Worth thinking about for the nevt revision.
1) Most parts of CMSMS admin consist of selecting an action, then getting a dialog box to allow you to choose what you want to do the action to. The Adding stylesheets dialog on the other hand has a select for which stylesheet you want and then an "add" button. This feels the wrong way round, and makes it easy to add the wrong stylesheet to a template.
2) The pretty long list of possible stylesheets even available off the standard install looks intimidating, and can cause errors, but we don't want to delete them in case there's a useful function in one that we can steal/harvest at a later date. Some sort of function to create a folder to hide them in would be neat, and shouldn't bee to hard to implement.
Thanks in advance for your attention.
