[Alpha]New Backend-Theme: wb2_theme
Waldschwein:
Hello!
Only people in the administrators group can see the News - that's a feature. ;-)
If you want to restrict it to certain people please change from the replacement line
--- Code: ---<?php
if ($rss_enable == true && $_SESSION['GROUPS_ID'] == 1 && file_exists(THEME_PATH.'/rss/rss_fetch.inc')) {
?>
--- End code ---
to
--- Code: ---<?php
if ($rss_enable == true && $_SESSION['USER_ID'] == 1 && file_exists(THEME_PATH.'/rss/rss_fetch.inc')) {
?>
--- End code ---
or just the user-id you wish. The "nice" thing is that it's not possible with that if ... else to see anything in sourcecode that leads to the adress /content.
As said before: Unfortunately it's only possible to change that in "Core" in /admin/start/index.php. I don't think such a News-Feed has any good in Admin-Tools...

Hello Michael,
I didn't have the time earlier to check your creation, therefor I come that late with my feedback.
The Look fits more to the new WB Design and I think this theme should be the default theme in the next release.
I am glad that you used the media overview created by Ruud and Argos, for the image preview and the other stuff in it is more user friendly.
I also like the idea of the RSS Feed.
But there should be better a interface (schnittstelle) to another admin-tool with more options, features (not only RSS Feeds), maybe a whole userdefined dashboard interface, as we know from other CMS and Blog-Software (expl. WP).
Just some thoughts.
I also like the "switch-size" feature, and in fact I am using something similar in my own unreleased Theme.
Maybe you want to release this Theme here:
http://www.websitebaker2.org/en/add-ons/backend-themes.php
(maybe without the RSS Feature first, till it's in development?).
Regards,
Stefek

Hello Stefek,
well, it's yet just a "technical preview", not at all finished. Argos gave me some improvement of his theme yesterday, that mostly get's rid of tables, so we will see what about the theme later on...
Default theme: I don't think it's a good idea having different themes in Core, but well, I don't decide that.
About RSS-API: Yes, I thought about that. It's not possible with WebsiteBaker right now. Of course some "Backend Modules" / Widgets (like WP...) would be nice, but that's not at all possible with the sourcecode of /admin. There would be a complete rewriting necessary - again. So - with respect of much more "important" changes to WB within security - I don't think it's good changing here too much, and in the end having nothing useful, or something that is 40% finished.
There are too many unflexible things in backend (JSadmin, /admin (e.g. pagestree), ...) and most of them are module based...
A user dashboard has the problem: Where to store information? There would be a "framework" necessary, like droplets. But I don't want to code that, it's too much risk...
Yours Michael

Yes, I know.
It's not a easy task.
It's more a long term objective.
That's the only reason why I never presented my own backend theme to the public - the core 'admin' doesn't allow to get it to work in all aspects you want.
Nevertheless, I like the way your backend gets along with the new WB Design.
Regards,
Stefek

Yes, absolutely. Perhaps I'll program some (kind of) UML and get it to the DeveloperTeam...
Yours Michael
