Curious Question...

Hey guys -
Let's say you have a site with multiple sections (as most sites do) and under each section you have pages and you want them all to be editable. Is there a way for admin menu to be cleaned up a bit so it's not just one big ol list of pages with a drop down that pops up after 4 or 5 page additions? It would be nice to be able to categorize things into sections with drop downs so it is easier to navigate to a page for editing.
I guess this is a feature request?
:)

Hi lterenzi!
Are you referring to the actual editor page? In which case, using separators to split up the content can work really well. Try adding a new separator field (it can either be a blank line, a header with a title, or some custom HTML) and that should split things up nicely. :)

Hi Donna!
Actually i meant once a client logs in and is presented with all the pages they can edit via CMSB (the admin page). I would love to be able to neaten that up by site sections with drop downs for each page that is editable. If I have 5 or 6 sections with say 60 pages that a client could edit I would love to be able to present a cleaner way for them to navigate to those pages and edit them.
Does that make sense?

Hi lterenzi,
I don't know if it's exactly what you're looking for, but the next version (in beta) has a new interface with the menu links along the left side.

Hi Dave!
I am sure that will help. Could I mockup what I am thinking and send it to you just to see if it's possible or as a feature request? Thanks again for everything CMSB made one of recent site builds 10x faster and more efficient and the client was knocked out by the ease of use.
Best,
Lenny

Hi Dave,
How did this end up? I am in the same boat - when the client logs in they are presented with a drop box with about 25 sections in it - if I could even just add a dotted line to separate a few of the sections into groups, it would make it a lot easier to find pages quickly.
Is this possible now, or coming?

The latest version has the links on the left side. You can see a screenshot in the second post here:

You can't group them though.
