a new site (very clean layout)

I am a webdesigner/developer. I only installed it tonite, and have to go through the templates and docs yet. In the learning process. I am changing from Movable Type. So far I am very impressed with it. After trying over twenty (a lot more) in the past year, it is great so far.

I especially like the writing static files to the server. Getting a great URL file structure seems very possible ie:
/website.com/categoryname/file-name

As a developer, I strongly agree to supporting the developer with a percentage of client sites, and will be happy to do so. Seems only fair and right to me.

Would you please tell me where I can find this option to generate static files?

Thank you!

I am desperately looking for such a tool. LucidCMS is too difficult to edit...

And the Terms of Use for XDBCMS are very restrictive for cases you guys discussed above:
"
XDBCMS can be used free of charge as GPL licence software, as long as you do not remove the references to XDBCMS (i.e. the 'built using' logo, or the meta tag placed within the heading of each piece of generated HTML
"
But still it seems to be a great tool for cases where you can't deploy a PHP/MySQL-solution on the remote server.

I am developping offical sites for educational institutions and other offical authorities. They sometimes don't want to see a "built with" notice on their site.
A "workaroud in this case could be
1) put the logo and the copyright notice on the disclamer/imprint page which all (offical) websites ought to have by law
2) Make a "sites-using" page on the officalt WebsiteBaker homepage where Webmaster could register their sites. Then you'd have enough references...

Greetings,
Shakka

I think he meant the feature that for every page an access file
wb/pages/somepage.php
gets created which gives friendly URLs automatically.
There is no option regarding this as it is the default behavior.

Ah, I did recognize that and liked it very much. A good tool for as said portfolio pages.  :D

But what do you think about an option to generate static files?  :?:

Like:
1) define a direcrory $DOCUMENTROOT/wbfiles/myhomepage/
2) set up your whole page with all content and templates...
3) have a button "export" and push it
4) take the files from $DOCUMENTROOT/wbfiles/myhomepage/ and upload them to your remote host...
5) thus you can create cool websites "on-the-fly" on your local server while hosting the pages on a 0,29ct-html-only webspace!

I think this would broaden the use of WB a lot...

(I haven't tried to use httrack for this idea...)  :roll:
