Hi

The FE editing of TemplaVoila 0.4 is awful bad - horrible.
Have somebody fixed worst bug is 0.6.


The content wizard in the FE
works without pop-up-window support really awful bad way:


Wizard - BE view - Wizard again - BE -view - close window -
*EXTREMELY* confusing. I can't imagine much worse behavior and the user
is soon *totally lost* - I can't imagine worse behaviour.

If the new content element wizard in FE toolbar is in pop-up-window
the situation is not so bad.

But the problem is that the wizard has too many steps and inconsistent 
behavior.


If the behavior could be in FE at least showing BE-view, where you create a 
new content element like in BE, the situation would be tolerable.

The BE view itself could work as wizard to put 
element into certain place. Then content wizard would select the 
correct type. I made that change and I get working solution.

At least quite consistent behavior. 

Because you can't put content element *directly* after certain element 
or to the top of the content area, the behavior is not as good as using 
the standard page module.


If you take off from 'Create new content element after' from normal 
edit panels, you don't create another confusing situation.

The link 'Create new content' in the toolbar  would be the *only* way
to create new content in FE at reasonable way.

You MUST disable/ not to define at all

1) from edit panels move up, move down, new (record after)

2) 'Save and new button' - new content becomes into unused elements and 
the user is *TOTALLY LOST!* 

It is possible to build fair working FE editing for TemplaVoila - but 
the functionality is still far from good - at least in 0.4.
