Re: [Phpwebsite-developers] Proposal: Let modules place metatags

[Richard S. <ri...@ri...>]

I personally think thats great and should be implemented :-)

I think it will be cool to change the theme on a page by page basis  
also if the user wanted to. I want to develop a site with different  
categories and would like the ability to change the look and feel of  
the site depending on the category they are in. I think it will be a  
great and unique feature of they CMS that no other one has so far but  
it's just an idea. What do you guys think?

Anyways....

+1 for Eloi
