Topic: Monstra and the future

As much as I am enjoying working with Monstra there is no apparent movement on the project itself.
I'm sure most have seen the twitter post: https://twitter.com/monstra_cms/status/ … 9970674688
I hope that Awilum will return in the not too distant future and guide the project on.

In the mean time I am curious what people are wanting?

  • I have seen mention of the login script and think this could be updated to use your email address as well as a case insensitive user name.

  • Multi level menus has been mentioned

  • Block/ snippet groups/ folders

  • Settings in plugins

  • File manager improvement such as thumbnails, sorting

My dream that probably will never come true is Steam OpenID Login.

Using Google OAuth recently for a plugin I have though about using it for login / account creation.

Hi mate, from what i have seen it seems Monstra is active thanks to all of us... Members must be busy but i belive that development will go on and new versions will come up. I have been making new versions based on 3.0.1. However, we could make contributions to community in order to push the development further on.

@wormsunited

Agreed. My intent was / is to see what people are wanting so that contributors can action or at least there is some direction for Awilum and team when things are "officially" moving again.

I've got lots of plugins / Monstra tweaks in my someday planner not least of which is a reworking of pages so that there are specify content areas that can be modified inline by an editor rather than whole page editing, removing potential of template damage, keeping things harmonious and stopping editors going crazy... after all it often just a bit of text or image that needs changed.

But I think I'll make some core tweaks including plugin settings and logins first.
After that i'd quite like Routing so that a path can be re-routed/ tinyurl-ed

I've also been thinking about a new theme something along the lines of:
http://bootflat.github.io/documentation.html or http://fezvrasta.github.io/bootstrap-material-design/
