I agree, your list is spot on!

I would just like to add:
'Drag' support for records in a Category Section like we have for Multirecord Sections

Hi everyone,

Thanks so much for your feedback and suggestions.

Some are going to take longer than others, but all of these things are on our planned features list.

Please feel free to post any feature requests, etc whenever you think of anything. It does help shape the future direction of the product.

Thanks!

Hi,

Just thought I'd throw out a few things that I'd like to see in future releases.

1) Number of Records Diplayed
A selection in the admin section general tab that sets the default number of records displayed in the records lists. Many of us have more than 25 records in our sections and our clients are constantly changing the setting.

2) Blank Space Plugin.
A plugin that checked for a blank space as the first (and only) character in all text and WYSIWYG fields on an entire site, so I don't have to put the code to check for that in each if statement.

3) Menu Groups for section editors.
Something similar to menu groups for section editor fields, so that complex sections expands only when fields are relevant. That would make many of my clients happier.

4) Better layout options for section editors.
It would be great to have more flexibility to determine what a section editor screen looks like to our clients. The "icing on the cake" would be to have the ability to design the editor screen like we now design our web pages.

Just a few thoughts.

Best,

Jerry Kornbluth

Hi Jerry,

Thanks for the suggestions, I've added a link to this post on on development plan document for future reference.

We've actually been a little bit behind on adding new features but we have a number of features we've already completed for custom projects that we plan to release soon as v2.05.

You're welcome as always,

I hope that you don't take any of my suggestions as negative or as criticism.

No one can't do everything that everybody suggests all at once.

You're making great progress at staying way ahead of the curve.

In short, I think that you folks Rock!!!

Best,

This ones not technically not an update but a slim version, what I mean is most of my clients now use iphones and it would be great for them to update their sites from their phone, although technically possibly using the excellent safari browser it would be better if cmsb loaded a version specifically designed for mobile browsing. I've no idea wether this would be technically possible, and maybe it could be sold as an extra for people that would require it. Just a thought.
