    Here’s a few things I’ve noted when trying out this CMS:

    - It would be nice if you could change the document type in the rightclickmenu. I.e. change an ordinary document to a weblink or vica versa.
    - The possibility to render the FlexSearchForm results as an (un)ordered list or a definition list.
    - When creating a link in the text-editor it would be of great help if you could "browse" the other documents in the database instead of manually having to make a "index.php?id="-link with the correct ID.

    I’m sorry if there are solutions to these things already, but I’ve been browsing around both in this forum and in the manager itself without having figured it out, so I take my chances smiley

      Good suggestions krizinbrizz.

      The FSF output should be addressed in the future via a template solution similar to Ditto. Links are easy to create now by just just using the [~8~] format, replacing 8 with the ID of any doc in the system. A pop-up list of available options would be nice indeed though.

        Thanks for the tip, rthrash, I’ll try the [~id~] thing.

        I haven’t tried Ditto, but after I wrote the first post I tried out NewsListing and I really like the way you can control the output with the help of creating a chunk. IMO that would be close to the perfect way to control the output of the FlexSearchFom as well.
