Hi Patrick. I hadn't realised that by Page Type you meant, in effect, a different content model. Page Types in django CMS are a way to take a snapshot of a page for resuse, to save you having to re-do a complex layout that you often reuse. If you want to manage weblog content, or events, use a weblog or events application, so that instead of shoe-horning information into unsuitable containers, you can have models that are designed to hold it in the most useful way. Other CMSes (like Wagtail and Mezzanine) extend their pages in the way you describe, but django CMS has always avoided that as a core principle.
