tags for templating

"<?php get_page_title(); ?> is not really any more time consuming or difficult than your suggestion."

Okay, it was just a suggestion.

"thus making it more powerful for those that need it."
But powerful is not the goal of this CMS, am i wrong ? If i want something a little more powerful, i'm just using an other CMS. Websitebaker, Spip, worpress, Plume (wich doesn require mysql either, stocking data in txt files)... those are simple two but more powerful.

"is not really any more time consuming or difficult than your suggestion."
No you are right.
But if modx has such a success, it is in big part because of his template wihout php. And i'm NOT talking about systeme template like smarty (with horrible conditions and foreach, i prefer use php directly ), but maybe my suggestion mean a lot of works ! I never tried to do such a thing.

My thought was : a lot of people who make html are frightened at seeing only one php tag : they just run away, even if this is as simple as your templates.

In my point of view what i think to be "foolish" would be to ask too much real new features for GetSimple CMS, like someone who talks about "custom field" : it leads to more complexity and to reinvent the wheel; and take the path that dozens of CMS have taken before GetSimple.


Just an opinion in ordert to discuss : i like the project really :-)
