In general, I’m a big fan of Revolution as it’s now already.
However, there are a few things that bother me:
1. The tree: In my humble opinion it’s really annoying that the tree keeps closing and re-opening on every page load. I also don’t think that for example the Web Resources part should automatically close, when I want to have a look at my Content Elements, because there will be times that I need information from both.
2. Sudden crashes: For some unknown reason, the system crashes for me after the slightest change. Whether it’s simply adding a new CE, or changing a System Setting. At first nothing seems to be wrong, but when I log out and try to log in again, I don’t get past the login screen. To restore that, I have to completely re-install Revolution (I mentioned this in the FAQ topic, but it seems like my posts got lost after all the questions that followed).

Hmm, this has never happened to me...but then, I use the SVN version and our server environments. might be different.
Oh, I think you raise some interesting points here but we’ve actually hijacked someone else’s thread!
Thanks, I just want to see this become the best possible solution for my assignment. It’s supposed to help me get my Bachelor’s Degree, so it would be great if it could be as close to perfect as possible.
And I apologize for hijacking the topic
I never intended to.
I’m guilty of this all the time 
Well, there’s a few issues here - just expanding it and leaving it open (a la, panels), would create some issues as well as solve them. The main one is real estate. If you have a lot of Resources in your resource tree, it gets pretty tall. So if I want to open the Element tree, I have to scroll quite a bit if the Resource tree stays open. Would the 3 tree panels then have to have a maximum height, with scroll bars? This, to me, is not optimal.

You’re going to have to provide us with some server environment information, browser information, and more for us to debug this. This sounds like a PHP or Apache configuration error on your server’s end; I have never experienced this behavior in my multiple environments.

3. Context cache: The main reason for me to use Revolution, is because I need a system where I can manage the content of several websites with the same layout and technical aspects, but with different texts (in different languages). But now, when I have two domains (domainA.com and domainB.com) with two contexts (domA and domB) I can edit both sites from 1 manager, BUT... I still need to have the manager on both domains. Because when my manager is on domainA.com, and I make an adjustment in domB, I still can’t see the changes on the site. If I also add the manager folder to domainB.com, and I edit it there, or clear the cache there, THEN I will see the changes. Now I’d asume that this is something that still needs to be fixed, but it would be nice if someone could confirm that for me.

In addition, there’s also one feature that I’d really like to see get slightly adjusted and that’s the function to duplicate web documents.
Right now, when you try to duplicate a document, it immediately makes a Duplicate of [name] (with the option to give a new name) in the same context.
What I’d prefer, is to also select which context you want to duplicate the document to. Then if you duplicate the document Home in domA, it can also be called Home in domB (as long as there isn’t a page called Home with the same parent).

Again, you’ll have to provide more information about how you set these up. Did you set them up on a shared core? If not, this scenario wont work. Are they sharing a database, or using 2? If they’re using 2, this scenario wont work.

From what you said, I understand that I can somehow get them to share the core? Could you tell me how I can do that?
