Re: [Maurice] creating a section editor with directory

Hi Maurice,

CMS Builder doesn't have a publishing directory, unless you're referring to the directory it keeps uploads in.

It would be possible to accomplish this through custom programming. Please let me know if you're interested in that.

I'd like to come up with a simpler (and cheaper) solution for you, but to do that I'll need to better understand what it is you're trying to accomplish. Why do you want to do this? Are you creating a lot of almost identical sections and trying to save yourself time? Please explain exactly what it is you're trying to do and I'll try to come up with a simple solution for you. :)
All the best,
Chris

Also, I'll add that you can set specific upload directories for each upload field. So if you want uploads for a certain section to go in a certain folder. You can do that.

Also, you can remove the .php extension from viewer files:

So news.php shows up as news/

Also, there's an option called useSeoUrls that makes your urls look like this:
/news.php/news-title-123

Which combined with the above gives you:
/news/news-title-123

You can create any kind of custom urls you want. Some just take more work than others.

Hope that helps!
