what should be in phpWCMS

[triarius]

Hi,

In my opinion phpWCMS needs most:

1. menu items that have children without any "attached" pages - now it's slighly crazy when you're using multi-level menu structure 'cause you've got a dummy page for every menu item with child;

2. more powerful stuff for templates:

a. separate head, main, left, right, footer
b. proper copying, renaming etc. of templates (now you don't seem to have the possibility to copy a template and save it under new name);

3. search engin friendliness - as much as I know SE's much prefer files and directories than scripts and many a CMS and such pretend to have this directory structure, it would be nice to have it here.

4. then... I must confess that I'm not particularly creazy about this "one article per page or only headers" hack, it looks exactly like a hack to me, smart for sure, often a simple and usable solution... but it shouldn't be the only option, should it? or, as some people off handedly suggested once when I raised this question - to use other hacks (or maybe even kludges) to get around it; phpWCMS is too fine a system to need force its users to use kludges. Hough!
