[TYPO3-english] templavoila?

[Thomas Skierlo]

Hi Horace,

the most important feature of TV are FCE. Flexible Content Elements - or 
Custom Content Elements. These might be accordions, sliders, 
galleries...whatever you might need, you'll get it. Since TV supports 
sections, elements can be expanded at need (like adding another 
accordion tab without changes to the general structure of the element).
Since TV has no realistic future, you might be better off with similar 
solutions, like Gridelements. GE has some advantages over TV, but still 
some disadvantages too, when it comes to workspaces or multilingual 
elements. But I think, it will develope in future.

Regards,

Thomas
