Hi Gary, Jonny and all, I support the idea of a non-complicated one-step (or one-configuration) approach as base for average users. Tiki is massive and I frequentlky witness users (even admins) being overchallenged by the sheer amount of options. To make basic configurations complicated in a mandatory way is imho the opposit way than the route we should go. We have to make life easier for the users. Not to missunderstand: I LOVE 'custom modules' and a 'custom module zone module' etc. might be more than awesome, make Tiki outstanding in another more aspect. But! We are on the way losing the average user. I usually use plain html Bootstrap Navbars with smarty and all types of modules and menus inside. This is one way to use Tikis capabilities. A MyModuleZone might be another way for a number of users. But the easiest way and fully appropriate I think is the layout approach of Gary. Why we should get rid of it? It is optional. T.
