    I am fully aware what free software is and I am grateful to the developers that have taken on Evo.

    Dont accuse me of taking the candy without helping - I help where I can, maybe not in the direct development, but I help users who have problems, with small tutorials, code snippets etc. Some of my latest forum posts: 1, 2, 3

    Saying that I am harsh with what I write is not on. I am sure most people know what constructive criticism is, that in my opinion is what I write.

    Test it, play with it, ask around if you don't understand some parts and write it down. That would be a great help.
    I have - you are writing in the main post

      Are the new mods' actually being thoroughly tested ? I get the feeling, NO.
      Does that sound constructive? The small sentence 'I will test it next time, too' is missing. Just my 2 cents.

      Is it possible to get comments etc. translated into English ?

      That one is true and should be regarded before merging the code together.

        Have you actually read my initial post ?

        I can nitpick as well:

        Tested - that's why I know it doesn't work

          What's the current process for contributing/patching pre-release (development) version of Evolution on Github?
          I already have modxcms/evolution forked - how can I send pull requests to you (the team)?

              I forgot to say: The HTML code view with highlighting and tab support is awesome! There is so much progress in this version. I love it!

              I am creating right now my own responsive and semantic template boilerplate for MODx Evo which is based partially on semantic grid system ( http://semantic.gs ) and the best thing is, that I uses php less as snipet in MODx. I manage the CSS for this in chunks. May be one day, there will be a CSS editor with php less support... *dream*

              I am not really experienced with Git and GitHub. Is there an alternative way to submit my stuff to the project, once it is far enough?

                Got it - but how can I send pull request to forked, not original upstream repository?

                And please open a ticket for the patch on http://tracker.modx.com/projects/evo

                Sure, will do.

                    Great advice, I wasn't aware of that [Compare and Review] workflow with all forks conveniently listed in dropdown.

                      This has been driving me crazy on a couple of old sites. I dug around in the section of code that iusemodx mentioned and found a way to prevent defaulting to the View Children tab.

                      At or around line number 358 I changed this:

                      <script type="text/javascript">docSettings.addTabPage( document.getElementById( "tabChildren" ) );docSettings.setSelectedIndex(1);</script>


                      to this:

                      <script type="text/javascript">docSettings.addTabPage( document.getElementById( "tabChildren" ) );</script>


                      Problem solved. I definitely agree that this default behavior should either be removed or made an option in the config.
