Re: Move presentation layer to file system

Sorry. No can do at the moment. There is no thread. Just take it as stated. I can say no more at this point. :)

Re: Move presentation layer to file system

It seems as if it might be a good idea to implement something that would keep both types of people happy. There are those that prefer the design to be stored in the database and edited through the admin area and they are those who would prefer to have physical files so that they can use a IDE of their choice. Why not have a templates directory, and add a timestamp to the database for the layout. When the page is requested the system grabs a timestamp and does a compare, if the timestamps differ then grab the files and place them in the database. When they are being edited from the admin area then write out to the files and the database. That way one can develope their layout using either method. Just a thought. Then again, I am very new to TextPattern and just taking a look at it, this is the one area that bugs me as I prefer physical files myself. Just my 2 cents for what its worth.
