Thanks. One problem I do have is how the hell can I change some look and feel pieces. That's more a general thing for the presentation framework than the content. My main "surprise" was that I needed blocks for everything. And that doing italics was hard, when I wanted to do a citation. Or is it another way? As I am a Tiki Wiki CMS Groupware team member, this is indeed a different way to look at things (https://tiki.org/Communications+Team) But I guess the codebase there is 100% non Pharo. And most of you on this list would, well, run away :-) But the community is quite working well. Check https://tiki.org/Monthly+Team+Meetings The Pharo site looks somewhat dated by today's standards (Have a look at the AngularJS site to see what I mean http://angularjs.org/, ). Next week, I have a meeting w/ a young designer who will be proposing me new looks, we'll see if we get traction with the community and if yes, get a new look on.

The look and feel is predefined by the designer. You then only characterize the content which adopts automatically the predefined styles. Cmsbox was created to manage CONTENT not STYLE as we address a specific, non-technical target group. Therefore you cannot change styles anywhere.
My main "surprise" was that I needed blocks for everything. And that doing italics was hard, when I wanted to do a citation. Or is it another way?
HTML5 was created with some new semantic tags such as article, sections, ... We anticipated this development by introducing "Articles" which keep the content semantically together which is also the basis for good SEO. Besides, yes, you really need for each paragraph a new text element as this allows us to create semantically and standard compliant HTML code which is on of the main goals. Each element at the represents an HTML tag or set of tags at the end. Hint: You should not want to format content but to adjust its function. Each element has therefore properties which are always context-sensitive within the black toolbar on the righten side. Hint2: Use the element "Table" for the links to the Shops at http://www.pharo-project.org/community/shop. Besides, link can have a description and a link action. You do not need to show the whole link within the content again if you do not want too.

Of course, Tiki Wiki and Cmsbox do not have anything in common beside the content management goal. This is due to the target group which is completely different. I would not want to explain wiki syntax to the secretary of a Swiss carpenter. ;)
The Pharo site looks somewhat dated by today's standards (Have a look at the AngularJS site to see what I mean http://angularjs.org/, ).
+1. An example using Responsive Design would even be better as Stef tends to force mobile devices.
Next week, I have a meeting w/ a young designer who will be proposing me new looks, we'll see if we get traction with the community and if yes, get a new look on.
+100. If the community accepts your proposal we would love to adopt the styles to new design. We are programmers and therefore dependant on designers input... but if we get it, we can do almost everything your want: http://www.cmsbox.com/en/showcase/our-websites Cheers, Chris -- Christoph Wysseier netstyle.ch GmbH, CEO
