Hi,

my client has a small static smarty template web project.
No he is asking me to edit certain content parts.

Is there a simple way to have for example tinymce editor who can access selected templates, allowing to edit (not the whole template) a certain part within the template? This "certain" could be marked with a comment for example?

I guess it means that I have to overwrite the template files, or?
Or should I work with a database better?

What do you guys recommend?
I really do not want to spend too much time on it... and I am looking for a smart and simple way.

Thanks
Heidi

sounds like a pain. why not use FTP client and text/html editor? For the "certain part" editing, just break that out to a separate template file, and just edit that file.

Pain again - You can break your template's header/footers (the really reused contents) into different files. Then, you can have a single file which is NOT a part of your template, but you can edit the WHOLE content with your favirite editor like TinyMCE. This seems a fairly good solution if you have several static files. On the parent template/controller do something like:

I second mohrt, use an FTP client and text editor.

C you around!
