Hi,

here a new site using CMS Made Simple:

http://www.imklosterbezau.at

Multi Lingual Support was realized with two separate installations that share the upload directory - I know not ideal, but better than nothing.

Yes, I had a quick view on it.
One problem I found was, that I was not able to make the news block multi lingual. The same with the album.
Is it possible to have everything multilingual and not only the content blocks?

regards

Hi,
I also like your site!  Very eye-catching and light!
I was wondering how you arranged to have a different banner for each new menu heading?
Anyway... Thumbs up!

Hi,

I simply used the module "Album 0.7.4" with one of the existing templates.

Regarding the chaning banner picture:
I did it with the following definition in the template:

 

This allows me to enter the CSS class when creating a new page. The class must exist in the CSS file and defines which picture is  shown.
Again - this is not ideal but it works. You have to make sure when you edit the content in the backend, that there no HTML tags ( like ..., etc. ) stored but pure text.
Another option to realize this would be to have multiple layouts - one per picture you want to show.
