Hi everybody,
I am developing a platform for building websites called www.9folds.com
using Django/AppEngine.

I bumped in an issue that is more of a user experience issue rather
than technical:
Currently when a user wants to start building a new website for
himself, the back-office UI makes it almost impossible to start. The
UI is just not clear enough. One of the issues which seems to make
this harder is that the templates which are available for the users to
use, are also user generated (everyone can upload their own Django
HTML templates or use other's templates), and so they are very dynamic
(here's an example template http://github.com/burgalon/design-white).

The correct solution which seems to me is edit-in-place where the user
gets to edit the place-holders texts+images and add pages and link
between pages. However I cannot think of a technical solution to
implement this since the templates are pure Django templates. (Anybody
knows an opensource project which allows such template syntax
replacement?)

On the other hand, I cannot think of a way to redesign the backoffice
interface so that it will be more intuitive for the user.

Any recommendations?
