ItemManager 2.0

[Felix]

Would you please explain what you're trying to accomplish so I may better help you?

Your help with ImManager is very complete, thanks again for that.

But maybe a little history will be on it's place.
I come from a different cms with a powerful but over-engineered api with mysql as a database.
Since I discovered that with xml a website is much, much faster I switched to the GS cms.
Also the use of xml apps or plugins such as ImManager keeps everything modular.
You only install what is needed for a website and keep everything else out.
But I still have to get used to the differences in api usage.

Yes the use of Util::preformat($my_item);
is very good for debugging and see what is possible to accomplish
I have added it to my tool box !
