Hello, are there some best practices you can suggest concerning the management of news items and similar data? F.e. in the new STK there is a news-area, where the content-editor can edit the news-items inline, but there doesn't seem to be a way to add *new* news-items from the front-end inline interface. It seems this has to be done from the website tree in the authoring interface? Is there a particular reason for this? And can end-users understand this, because they can add all kinds of paragraphs in the front-end, but one of the most used areas, news, they cannot add from the front-end?
I can think of globally 3 ways of managing news: - from the website tree, from the data module with a news type, or in the front-end inline. In the last case, how do you cope with publishing dates? Do you have to program your templates so that an editor sees *all* the available news-items, or does the editor only see the "live" news-items (ie published/active/etc.) that the website visitor also can see? A lot of thoughts and directions, and thus the question if there are some best practices on this topic :) cheers, Olaf ---------------------------------------------------------------- For list details see http://www.magnolia-cms.com/home/community/mailing-lists.html To unsubscribe, E-mail to: <[email protected]> ----------------------------------------------------------------
