This is a rather long one:
"Macro's" or "Glossaries" in Midgard?:
OK. Let's look at a possible scenario: Everytime the word
"Mugwumps" appears on a site, no matter where, I want it to
be BOLD and be a link to <http://www.mugwumps.com>. (It
doesn't really exist, at least I don't think it does.)
Typing all the tags necessary for this when it appears in
content REPEATEDLY across the site is time consuming. I'd
like to be able to create a "macro" (in the language you
used in the example site) or a "glosarry" (my language)
entry, so whenever I type <[MGWC]> or even if it just
encounters the word, it replaces it with <B><A
HREF....>Mugwumps</A><B>.
mgw_get_article:
Can you combine :h and :f together?
Style/Layout Admin:
I haven't seen it demonstrated anywhere yet: Using
Layout/Style Admin, is it possible to vary it depending on
where you are in a site?
Example: On the homepage at RadioDigest.com, our left-hand
nav is a list of the different markets we have. That is a
style element that is called from a master table style
element. As you drill down into the site, we'd like to vary
that left-most column as it is on our site. Example: If you
go to radiodigest.com/los_angeles, the leftmost column is
specific to that market (AM/FM Dials..station listings,
ratings, etc.). And our article pages don't have a leftmost
nav column at all.
Suggestions for varrying layout across a site?
Terms used in Midgard:
I've noticed that Midgard uses several different terms to
refer to the same functionality, which can get confusing.
Example:
Layout Administration/Style Admin...
Host Administration/Directory Admin/Page Admin/
Content Administration/Topic Admin/Article Admin
Group Admin/Person Admin
I'd like to suggest standardizing the language you use for
Midgard. Along those lines, perhaps a good choice for top
level categories in the Midgard Admin would be "Style",
"Content", "Structure", "Permissions".
Just my .02...
