    Default Re: Dynamic website, cms and e-commerce shopping cart (wip)

    xtom,
    thanks for your answer and sorry for my late reply. What you say sounds good!
    For starters I think it was cool to make seamless = graphically absolutely integrated Blogs possible.
    Examples of current techniques typically look as if non native content had been embedded (as it
    is the case).

    What you describe means having one Blog Entry per Page. I could live with that but I actually prefer Blogs
    which at least by Month or by Category show all entries on just one scrolling page.

    I have no Clue of Coding and possible complications - so please bear with me.
    What I however considered ideal for a Blog was to boil this format down to its very basic virtues:
    Listing stuff by date and Categories and maybe giving People an option to comment.

    Instead of using a stare layout and a CMS-typical authoring Tool (some wysiwyg Text-Editor) I'd rather
    be able to create a chain of possibly very different pearls, depending on then individual contents requirements.
    Each entry would be an encapsulated piece of graphical content.

    As a backbone all these posts had in common the already mentioned organisational attributes.
    Obviously what I said will have limitations - so one will not be able to change the Background just for Entry No. 3
    when it shares the page with several other Posts...
    To create Content I'd like to use Xara exclusively and gladly trade the option to Update from anywhere.
    But it was of course desirable to simply fit in another Post between two already existing Entries or to change
    the length of an existing post without having to manually rearrange stuff.

    One last remark: I see that you plan do release your CMS as a commercial product.
    Maybe a scale-able solution made sense here? I for instance was currently only interested in a flexible Blog-Solution,
    controlled from Xara and not in all the E-Commerce Features you also have in the making. If that should change
    one could upgrade to the Full version of the CMS.

    Greetings, Holger
