[mezzanine-users] Re: new release?
Hi Gavin My understanding is that it is done on a best-efforts basis, so the short answer to your question is 'no'.

Re: [mezzanine-users] Some newbie questions for someone moving from WP to mezzanine
Hi Brandon Helping Mezzanine become novice friendly would be great I think. There are 3 articles written by Ross Laird that I have consistently found really useful... 1. http://www.rosslaird.com/blog/first-steps-with-mezzanine/ 2. http://www.rosslaird.com/blog/building-a-project-with-mezzanine/ 3. http://www.rosslaird.com/blog/customizing-mezzanine/ In terms of why Mezzanine is designed the way it is, well that is a big question. I have listened to this video http://blog.jupo.org/2014/08/21/pycon-apac-keynote-mezzanine/ a few times where Stephen McDonald talks about Mezzanine. It could be useful to give you a background as to where Mezzanine came from. I have heard that Vimeo may not be super accessible. Let me know if you have problems accessing the video... Take Care Graham On 30/04/15 06:52, Brandon Keith Biggs wrote: Hello, I have been looking around the web, comparing different python CMSes with Mezzanine and I keep coming back here. I am wondering why mezzanine does not implement functionality for non developers to use it out of the box? So for example, I have my website on wordPress and would like to migrate it to mezzanine. I know python, but not django. In order for me to move my site to mezzanine and make it look like I want, I need to both modify the CSS file, the template files, learn django so I can display some variables that I have on my front-page and figure out how to deploy mezzanine on a server. After I get my website up and running I want to learn django and start building apps. Granted, mezzanine has a much easier entry than any other python CMS I found, but I think it could and should be a little easier. After all, there is a huge audience of people who know basic python and would really like to use a python CMS, but don't want to learn django or a complex templating language to create a good looking website. For example, why does it take 5 commands to run? (granted 5 is really good as most other places take 10+), but mezzanine-project myproject could totally make the db, setup the user and ask if you would like to run the server. (possibly a -s or -b could setup the server for server-side development and -b could set the folder like it is now). I have not yet deployed it on a server yet, so can't say how difficult it is, but it would be really awesome if mezzanine either did what wordPress.com does or give a really easy (no more than 10 step) tutorial on how to install mezzanine on something like Python Anywhere. Also, why does mezzanine not have a content folder with subfolders of plugins, themes, apps and the default templates? I think it would be super easy to make and would promote well-organized site structure. I know that mezzanine is built for developers, but so is python. I think that mezzanine could totally remain super developer friendly while also being non programmer and basic python programmer friendly. These are just a few thoughts from someone who is just coming into mezzanine never having developed for the web in python before. (Other than brython :)). I really would like to tell people to use mezzanine rather than wordPress because learning how to script in python is just so much easier than learning how to script in PHP, but currently it is too complex. I am learning django and hopefully I can either make a separate CMS based off mezzanine or help mezzanine to become novice friendly.

Title + the publishing controls are present across all things that inherit from the Displayable class where as the type of content on those various models will vary from class to class. Blog Posts have categories and content, Rich Text Pages just have content, Links have no content, etc... All the admin classes of those models inherit from Displayable so they end up all having those things grouped. Besides the technical reasons I think the consistency is useful and I find it nice to always be able to have the publishing controls right there. 2. The editor is a WYSIWYG, particularly one called TinyMCE. Here's what they have to say about accessibility, http://www.tinymce.com/wiki.php/TinyMCE3x:Accessibility, but maybe some or all of that isn't working? You can change what is used though, for example in your project's settings.py file you could put: RICHTEXT_WIDGET_CLASS = forms.Textarea Doing that should get rid of the WYSIWYG and those types of fields should just show up as normal HMTL textareas. That would affect any admin user, not just yourself. 3. There isn't anything like that built in, there might be other projects that do things like that for Django that you could integrate with Mezzanine. 4. I don't think we have considered Brython but it should be easy to integrate any front
Re: [mezzanine-users] I need to put editable sections in my home page.
You have a couple of problems: 1) The homepage isn't managed by a page object by default, as to the why and how to get that working, see here: http://mezzanine.jupo.org/docs/frequently-asked-questions.html#why-isn-t-the-homepage-a-page-object-i-can-edit-via-the-admin 2) You've misunderstood the way the editable tags work - in your example you've hard-coded the text Clean, Crisp, Powerful and Responsive Web Design rather than using the model field that will be edited.
