[quote author="Yorick Peterse" date="1250457631"][quote author="egoslip" date="1250391983"]I actually have a question...
Have you consider moving the template engine to the db and create template straight from the db instead of having files uploaded???
basically something similar to the EE setup.[/quote]
Phil thought about it, but I will not allow it since it's just plain stupid. Here's why :
• you can't use your own editor
• it's slower than using files
• harder to manage
• database size will grow too fast[/quote]
Ignore Yorick, database modifications of theme files is something definitely planned for the future.
That includes both the HTML and CSS. The main issue is finding a decent templating system first. I tried this with my HelpfulParser project, but that really is not good enough. I'm looking for a solution close to Smarty without being so bloody massive and OTT.
And as for making a mess of things, watch your damn tongue Yorick.
Having multiple class names for things like "float-left, list-unstyled, link-hidden" is not perfect but there is currently no solution for adding custom CSS without hacking theme files. It is perfectly valid syntax and avoids inline styling by using a list of pre-defined class names. This does NOT mean I am messing anything up and I don't want to have to talk about this again.
Your constant slander and rude comments is starting to really tick me off! It's good to have you back but you need to stop spamming out the "phil is a n00b" comments on here and Twitter. Lets get back to creating a freaking awesome CMS.
Remember, PyroCMS is a joint effort by me, you and a few others. If a feature is disagreed with by any of the main developers we'll have a vote on here. If that vote is a no, it doesn't go in and we find another solution. If it is a yes, the developers who disagreed can shut up whining and support the new feature.
