I'm gettign one specific error everytime i activate the template, I'll have a go again in a while, when i get home, and i'll try and reinstall the templates. i haven't got time at the moment for hacking it, so the whole cms is on the backboiler for me for the next week or two...

give me a shout on here or on im if you can't figure it out

"DTD Version mismatch, cannot import"

when trying to import theme. by manually creating a template (ie. copying and pasting code)

Thanks Forbairt. I appreciate that.

sounds like the theme you want to use has some versioning info included in it that states its only for version x.y.z of CMSMadeSimple.

Which theme is it ? and cmsmadesimple 1.3.1 ?

I looked at cms made simple and a few others but they where ether to complicated for the end user or to big so i wrote my own cms with php and an open source javascript wysiwyg text/html editor. Now i just use include files where ever my customers want to be able to update content. Its simple enuf and just uses flat text files and pages as an array.

Still working on a gallery tho but if any one is interested in the cms the code bellow is the main part to build on.

Each page is added to the array and has a text file containing the content. Now if you build an admin page and password protect it you can use a wysiwyg javascript editor to write to the text files and wack a simple customised cms made in no time..

should your Pages not be validPages ... or vice versa

yes sorry just seen that..

personally I wouldn't go that route of home grown again ... unless I'd a good bit of time to devote to it and it was going to be a product I was offering customers.

It doesn't give you nice urls
It doesn't give you keywords / meta / titles
It doesn't give you easy linking to other pages.

and lots of other things.

Keywords meta and titles I deal with in the code but if you wanted to include them in the cms that is simple with include files editable in the backend.

I have added very simple linking in the backend where the client can select the page they want to link to from a drop down list.

I also know how the whole system works unlike using a ready made package.
