I can subclass modesl, create themes and override views easy enough. By the time I jumped through all the hoops I realize it would have been easier to customize the views in plugins directory and edit the models directly. That being the case, then why not promote CE to a full blown app? I imagine this also makes for a more responsive application by doing away with the engine plugins altogether. I can see the benefit of using CE as a plugin if you have an existing rails app, but if you're creating a site from scratch where most views will be customized and models changed then CE as a plugin is an extra level of indirection and added complexity.
I looked at Insoshi (viral license not good for commercial work), lovdbyless (like the pre-built functionaly of CE better). Maybe I'll create a fork on github. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "CommunityEngine" group.
