Your Weekly Devot:ee - September 2, 2010

devot:ee

This week we start including whether or not the add-ons are available for EE1 and/or EE2.

The team at Barrett Newton is at it again. First they made working on commerce sites almost fun in ExpressionEngine with CartThrob. Now you might just pass out with joy the next time you have to work with a SAEF when using SafeCracker, which is a replacement and enhancement of ExpressionEngine’s Stand-Alone Entry Form/Stand Alone Edit Form (aka SAEF, which leads me to think they should have named it SAEFCracker and just laughed at anyone who thought it was a typo).

We use a couple huge SAEFs on devot:ee and I’m sure this would have helped shave off a ton of time when developing them. There is a version available for EE 1.6.5+ as well, but you will need to contact BN directly about that version. Get cracking!

I do believe this is the first time I’ve clicked through to the original post from the RSS feed - all because I wanted to say “Thank you!” for adding the EE1/2 indicators to the post! smile

I tip my hat towards Barret Newton for SafeCracker but IMO a stand alone edit form needs to be part of the base functionality of EE.

My *only* gripe with EE is there are now quite a few things that I believe should be part of a CMS rather than a bolt-on. (don’t shoot me down, just an opinion.)
