Pages-and-Items framework for Joomla ComponentPluginLanguage

The Pages-and-Items framework for Joomla is:

FRAMEWORK FOR CUSTOM ITEMTYPES IN JOOMLA
----- any field is instantly searchable! (optional per field).
----- template manager with optional different templates for categoryblog-view and full-view.

example template:
(sorry, can't use tags here)
div
{field_image-left_33}
/div
div
{field_checkboxes-thing_33}
/div
div
{field_email_34}
/div
div
{field_youtube_25}
/div


field types are (for now):
- editor
- text (to be validated as not-empty or emailadress, so doubles as mailto:link)
- image (with optional auto resize to match layout)
- checkboxes
- radio
- select
- HTML
- textarea
- link
- item-creation-date
- item-read-more-link
- item-read-more-url
- item-author-name
- item-hits
- item-modified-date
- item-publish-date
- item-version
- youtube
- item-title

EASY TO USE ADMINTOOL WITH PAGE TREE
allowing 1-click creation of:
----- category

FRAMEWORK FOR DIFFERENTITEMTYPES IN JOOMLA
Default Joomla has only the text-with-image itemtype. With this framework anything can be made into item types. It's easy to make a new itemtype.

itemtypes:
----- PHP
----- HTML
----- module position
----- image gallery
----- YouTube video
----- Google video

You need to also install the Pages-and-Items bot for everything to work.

This extension hasn't got the credit it deserves in this directory. When it gets the frontend editing it will be something BIG.

Maybe the description doesn't remark clearly enough the most important features for me:
- You can add custom fields in different formats to content.
- You can use it as a template manager for content creation.

Dude! i mean! COME ON! this extension is AMAZING! i registered to write this comment! i am dazzled by how powerful this comment is, here is my story, i am creating a site with artists listing, and it was really a big problem for me to make my admins and moderators migrate from the old system i had which i built on codeigniter, to Joomla! the older system was easier for them since they are used to it and since the GUI provided them with what they need, so for me, i didn't want to put my feet in deep water before i study all the possibilities, and the quest to find the extension that can do what i want started, till i found this amazing little piece of extension! silent! and no one even commenting while it's AWESOME! seriously! creating custom items and putting them anywhere in your site has never been easier, this must be an editor's choice, and i am not related to the author of this extension by any form btw so you won't think i am being biased.. try it by your self!
