Hello,
I've been building websites based on GetSimple for many years. I have created a few plugins and I know this CMS fairly well.
I miss many things (native multi-level menu, more modern look of the administration panel, etc.). Many of these things are solved by version 3.4, but for several years there is no final version.
Therefore, I am looking for an alternative (apart from Worpdress). Maybe you know some interesting CMSs?
I care more about a good administration panel (multi language, users, custom fields) than on creating a website template directly in the CMS system.

I saw it. Will there be multi-level support in the manager menu?

For me, this is a "must have" option. I plan to expand my plugins with a lot of new features.
Do you think about the 3.4.1 or 3.5 version with the implementation of this?

I appreciate your commitment but as we have been waiting for 3.4 several years it will probably be 3.5 and will come out in a few years. There is no chance to include this option in version 3.4?

You can use I18N.
Or you could create a plugin that "replaces" the default menu manager.
