Thanks for the awesome replies.

I pretty much am going to stick to just building a static html/css/js site, then once I have that how I like it, I will move to a dev.yaddayadda.com remote server for building templates and fields, cause it just doesn't make sense to redo things twice.

I was just wondering if there was something I was missing that might have made it quicker, since processwire is so awesome.

It appears this forums are equally as awesome as well!

Thanks for the help.

An idea for part two of the planets tutorial:

Planet type could be a great place to introduce relational page fields. This might also help cement the idea of just what a page can be in ProcessWire.

Good idea, I will plan to do that.

I was just thinking that it would be great if this was carried on in some way. I think the main advantage of having a whole site tutorial is that so many different methods come up that we all face in our projects:

How you organise your templates
How you go about changing permissions so that the end-user only edits what is needed
Field types
Navigation

I think when it's all part of a project then it's easier to grasp and people will come out the other end of it with a much better idea on how to do their own projects.

I know time must be very short and if there's any way I can help out, I'd be delighted.

I also must stress that on a general level, the documentation here is outstanding, I just think an all-inclusive project walkthrough would be the icing

ProcessWire is meant to support your existing way of developing things, but I think it's always good to provide a starting path and then let people take it from there. More needs to be added, like you mentioned. We added the tutorials board here a few months ago and hoping to continue adding to it with more stuff like this. I also want to start adding new site profiles. I plan to expand on this tutorial with the items mentioned at the bottom of it (page 1), as soon as time allows. Anyone that wants to make tutorials or site profiles, that's great too and just let me know what I can do to assist.

I'd love to help out but think it's pretty early days for me so far!
I feel that it may actually be the 'back-end' where most of the head-scratching goes on (that could just be me though).

We're lucky that the community and yourself back this product so much that the answers are nearly always out there.
