Hi
I would strongly recommend a version with wicket templates.
Wouldn't it be the most important reasons for using a Wicket CMS that you
don't have to deal
with any scripting language but plain html ?
So I would prefer Number 2 (use Wicket templates, but create additional, CMS
specific
Perhaps we need to define the problem better...
A typical article has an author, date written, date last modified,
tags, content, summary, keywords, title, subtitle, etc.
Some people like to show everything on their blogs, so you get in a
Wicket template:
div wicket:id=article
h1
The reason that Joomla and Drupal are so popular is that it is relatively easy to make custom templates and modules. But when we use Wicket and Velocity, it becomes a little too difficult for a normal user. Someone who has little or no programming experience.
Then there is another problem. Wicket
The part where wicket would really shine is the part of application
where you manage content, etc. For the part where you show the content,
I'd consider multiple approaches.
You definitely need different templating engine (like freemarker), or
maybe some scripting language. I'm not sure that
I don't know but if you want a powerful scripting language then you should
look at JRuby.
If however you are concerned about users, then you could do it entiry using
JavaScript. In fact that might open the door for a numer of widgets already
in the public domain, yui being one of them.

That's the stuff you'll be learning! :)
Rhino, JRuby, Jython, etc, all have excellent Java integration. By the

hello all,Some of you may know that we're working on a Wicket-CMS as our grad project. We've been thinking about the use of templates. About how we are going to let people create their own templates. As we saw in Drupal and Joomla, there templates are full of PHP-code. If we're going to do the
My inclination would be to do as much as you can via CSS, but if you
need to add scripting, I'd (a) go with Jython (b) make a major
effort on examples documentation!
