Growlf, Thanks for your input on this. Really appreciate it and I am sorry for my delayed response - I completely missed your reply until today. > I would suggest using Django-CMS and adding your fixes, plug-ins and > documentation to the project rather than home-rolling yet another > CMS. I agree with you on this. Seems a little foolish to attempt to reinvent the wheel when there are plenty of options about. I ended up ditching fiber pretty quickly due to lack of documentation and ended up choosing FeinCMS, which has been great, although lacking in some areas - either that or my knowledge/understanding of the docs is lacking to the point where I am coming to a grinding halt with the MPTT side of things. Anyway, cheers again for your response. Dave -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django users" group.
