It would be much much easier if the plugin included a function similar to I18N's get_i18n_search_results(), where you pass all parameters like sorting order, component to render through, amount of items etc. In effect, what this plugin misses is a simple output function that combines all of the actions in the example in the first post here: http://get-simple.info/forums/showthread.php?tid=4779. I'd probably be able to make sense of it after a day, but then again I'm looking for a plugin & not a framework with a learning curve, I'd rather use I18n special pages & I18n combined to build items through regular pages, just because the API is much more accessible. And it sucks, because I know this plugin is specifically built for item lists, and at least as sophisticated for this task.You are little annoyed just because you can not handle with the API?
I see you have not really understood what the ItemManager and you are trying to compare apples and oranges here. ItemManager can do so much-much more than simply sorting and outputting the pages. Instead of getting angry, think about what you want to do exactly with ItemManger and I'll try to show you a few examples so that you will then know what possibilities ItemManager is offering.
