Having used both products extensively, I find Wordpress’s UI extremely efficient - if you’re creating a blog. If not, you’re in deep trouble. Moveable Type is a good interface, but often slow and takes too many workarounds to do what should be simple tasks.
Truely agree, thefore I don’t have the idea to copy it 1:1 in anyway just to grabb some nice design ideas and create something that is very easy (read stupid) to use for end users and clients, who dont have the technological expertise to navigate to the revolution manager theme.
I believe the modxcms interface is state of the art codewise, It was just a thought to just port some of the MT interface to a modxcms for personal usage, and anyone who wanted something like that. It would most likely be less code perfect but better fit for my own particular clients usages. Just a thought to feel how others here on the board would think about this therefore the poll
I dont suggest the main theme should be changed in anyway, just to have a alternative that is more simple (stupid) for the end users that maybe need to login to there website and edit there pages.
If you’ve got criticisms of the UI, we’re all for hearing them. But you need to state them clearly, and specifically. Simply stating that the UI should be changed because you like another is not good enough.
I think the modxcms is great and I dont want to stirr any fuzz or be rude,
Just feel like the interface is not fit for non technical people who need to edit there pages.
Having had clients to work with wordpress was a big task, removing all unneeded menu options with user roles they managed to get along
it still was more user friendly in my opinion because of the way the page was organized. Every CMS and interface has it flaws and issues.
