    Hi all,

    I've just been spending some quality time with Niko, and I have to say I
    like it quite a bit.

    I've also been keeping notes on some of the things I wish were better in
    Campsite, but as there are an awful lot of open tickets in Trac, I figured
    I'd run these by you first before inputting duplicate tickets.

    So here's my wishlist of feature requests from today:

    - Restart parser from browser
    - Reorder fields within article types; when creating an article type, if a
    user forgets a field, like 'date' and then inputs it later, it shows up in
    the wrong place. A reorder function would be really nice to have.
    - Edit/change assigned article types in the article metadata page. I can't
    tell you how many times I've gotten my article types wrong on input, and
    the only thing to do is to delete the article, possibly losing work in the
    process
    - Ability to set article type defaults on a per-section basis. I really
    like the ability to set the section templates from within the 'configure'
    button, and would like to see the possiblity to set the default article
    type (users would still be able to change them).
    - Edit photo number for files added from photo archive. When you add a
    photo from the archive, there is no way to assign it a number; when you
    upload a new photo, there is. So the workaround is to either input a
    duplicate photo or delete the existing one from the archive and then
    change its number

    Hi Doug,

    Please file these features requests into trac, anything that is not there does
    not exist.
