We size our images to create great structure and although CMSB can indeed resize based on maximum height and width, this results in images that are not the sizes we require.
We have so many customers tell us that they have "never used an image program before" or "surely it doesn't matter that much, does it?". The long and short of it is that it absolutely does matter and that's why we were looking to provide a tool that would allow the customer to see how the images would look with predefined dimensions.
Your idea of using this free tool is just great and probably something we should have considered sooner.

My sincere thanks

We have decided that we are going to integrate one of the J query cropping tools into CMS builder. I was just wanting to ask whether someone has already done this or if not, whether you guys think it's a good idea.
We are looking to integrate something similar to http://deepliquid.com/projects/Jcrop/demos.php

Any comments would be greatly appreciated, especially any from you great guys at interactive tools :-)

Could I please confirm how this actually works. Are you saying that irrespective of how much CMS builder currently does within our clients site, the preview button will display the complete page exactly as it would if the record were saved?

Also we have done a lot of our own custom coding within CMS builder.
We want to ensure that we don't have any issues with the current version. Is there a safe way of including the new "preview" option without disrupting anything else?

Your help would be so very much appreciated.

Is there any way to show the value of _link variable in the admin, so the user knows how to link to particular record? If so can it be shown in a nice SEO way?

Thanks

Opening tables | SET time_zone = '-04:00'

The issue is coming out of the blue after months of no issues.
The only way to solve the previous occurence was to upload new CMS Builder files and restore an earlier version of the DB.

Can you please advise what might have caused these 2 occurences as I am sure its going to happen again.

The customer is able to manage both the menu and the pages that are linked to the menu without admin access.

However the client now wants to create links within some pages to new pages. These new pages must not be associated with any menu, they are just pages that require creation. How can the client create a page that is not linked to a menu and also be able to see what that page will be called so that he can link to it from other areas of his site.

I do hope that makes sense :-)

So it is now a really important element.
Is there any way that a breadcrumb trail can be generated. Manually adding it is not an option as the client will have the ability to create new pages within the CMS.

Your help would be greatly appreciated.

Our USP is that we create high level design and enable control of more complex functionality using CMS Builder. Despite all this clients continue to ask how they add and remove pages themselves. It seems to be a fundamental expectation for many and one that has just lost us a significant piece of work.

Guys - can you comment on this.
Sincere thanks

"Can I add a new page myself and update my website menu accordingly using a simple point and click operation?".

This is a standard feature of all CMS facilities except CMS Builder. I fully understand that CMS Builder does not work in that way. The problem is that the client cannot change the menu or add pages himself - he has to come back to us each time. It is a limiting factor for many clients.

I have no doubt that we can get CMS Builder to manage a menu but I dont know how we can allow the client to add pages as we would first need to define a template for the necessary CMS Builder code to attach to.

Can you advise how I can deal with this.
I hope I am making sense.

The problem is that the files seem to be uploaded with permission 600. This means that nobody but the owner can view them. Is this a server issue or is there somewhere we can set the permissions for uploaded files through CMS Builder?

Many thanks for your help.

We are currently coding an image gallery which integrates lightbox and a number of other more complex features.
I just wanted to say that this product is NOT just for simple website control. I have a team of extremely experienced open source and Microsoft developers. All have said that this product far exceeds any CMS product in terms of flexibility and control.

We think its fantastic and will pass on any major add ons we create.

Great work guys.

All was fine until the client said that he wanted to control the content. Is there any ay that we could use CMS builder to alow the client to control the content within the Divs.

When viewing the index page in a wysiwig web editor the div content is not visible. Its only possible to view it all in "source code" mode. My fear is that this same limitation would apply if the client wanted to update the content using CMS Builder.

Can anyone please comment on this.
The index page is located at www.first4zone.com/55degrees
You can see the div content by clicking any of the menu links.

It says the record is saved but when the field is checked it always recerts back to the word "Save".
If you visit http://www.fareastfilms.com/reviewsPage.php?Flash_Point-3 and look at the left column you can see the word "save".

I notice on the main website :-

Hidden option lets you hide content that's still in progress - then set as live to instantly make it public.
Publish Start Date lets you queue up content to automatically go live on the specified date.
Publish End Date lets you specify a date to automatically expire content and take it offline.

Can anyone advise where these options are located or how I create them.

Sincere thanks

Am I correct in thinking that the recently added "Category" menu type is supposed to achieve this?
If so how will it work. Obvuosuly the most flexible method is to use dropwdown menu options such as those at www.2and4wheels.com
So can we somehow use this facility to create horizontal and vertical menu systems?

I think if this were possible then it adds a completely new dimension to the product and I will have a new client right away!

Your comments would be appreciated.

The main one is content "approval". Many of my clinets want to give others the ability to make updates but to be able to approve them before they go live.

The other one would be "version control".

Is the simple answer that CMS Builder will never be able to carry out such functionality or are you going to surprise me with a "all your dreams are about to come true" answer :-)



Thanks in advance.
