Hi Angryboy,
Thanks for the help, makes sense. Funnily enough, special pages actually helps in another way which is to allow me to define 'per page editable regions' too, rather than using custom fields that show up on every page. Is this the best way to build 'per page editable regions'? Say if I have a page that has 3 columns, and an intro section. I'd create a special page that would allow the user to use the main wysiwyg for the intro section then create 3 custom wysiwyg sections for each column. Would I then define in the template where these different sections would be output(a little like wordpress), I saw that you can also add php/html/css onto the special page but, I wasn't too sure how that works?
OK, other than that I'm going to get stuck in using get simple and see how I get on. My main focus is on creating something I feel 100% comfortable giving to a non technical client. I worry a little that once I start to use too many plugins, it might get confusing/tricky for clients who have no technical expertise.
