Hi everybody.

I want to get the admin interface a bit under control. I have handled to assign every input in the "new content" page (addcontent.php) a unique class. Now i would like to not diplay the content text area (css:display: none; of coarse), and work only with content blocks because i can reorder and rename them.

My question is, how can i do it so, that its not necessary to write something in the content text area and work only with content blocks? I want simply to avoid the message "no content given!" and to make it possible to leave the field empty. I hope you understand me. Sorry for my english. I appreciate any help.

When Im ready with this project, the admin interface should be under full control, i will share my work, if I make it. I belive the biggest problem of cmsms is its admin interface which is not applicable for end consumers ( My boss rather give me a new task for updating a page in the bug tracker and wait a week than deal with cmsms, though its not even that bad).

Thanks and greetings from Sofia/Vienna

Empty no but (untested) a quick hack can be:
Site Admin > Page Defaults > Add   in Content field

now Content have a space in content when you add a new page (you must check if Tiny drop this....  :-\)
