Is there a way to make a menu item that is a direct link?
For example, if I create a menu item "Search", can I have that be a link directly to lmgtfy.com?
If not, I'd like to make that a request. Please.

[SOLVED] Clean theme - dropdown menu for subpages
I have worked out a pretty good dropdown menu system. If there weren't mobile devices, it would have been easy 
I will post a link to a site that's using it, just as soon as I get permission from them. If they nix using their site, I'll make a demo site.

REQUEST: SimpleBlog description and keywords
Part 1:
For posts, it would be beneficial to have a keywords field. The "automatic" method is only useful if you make your first text a keyword-heavy mess.
Eventually, it would be really cool to pass the blog post to an AI and let it create the description and keywords automagically!

SUGGESTIONS: several small (I hope) things
I've been using WCMS for over a month now. Like everything, it has pros and cons; however, for now it's doing the job I need it to do.
There are some niggles I've noticed, so I thought I'd make them into suggestions.

[SOLVED] Re: Overload private functions in $Wcms?
Never mind.
Instead, I copied menu() and renderPageNavMenuItem() into functions.php.
There, I made a few tweaks of $this to $Wcms.
In theme.php I call menu() instead of $Wcms->menu().
It's working, so now I can proceed with the theme.
There might be some gotcha with plugins or something, but ...

Re: [edited] Contact form w/spam protection?
Cool! I'm glad I could give a little back.
When you do implement it, you should probably use the POST method since GET is deprecated and liable to be dropped at any time.
I don't keep a website for myself, but it's Scott Smith aka grimblefritz.
Thanks!

Overload private functions in $Wcms?
I'm working on a new theme. I need a mostly new renderPageNavMenuItem(), which is defined as a private function in the Wcms class.
I don't do much PHP OOP stuff. Understand it barely enough to be dangerous.
Can I overload renderPageNaveMenuItem() and if so, how?
If not, then I can take a shot at ...

Re: H1 heading tag
I simply don't use the H1 tag. There are just too many gotchas with it. Your ranking can take a hit if H1 is:
omitted
hidden
by any of several methods,
all considered black hat
placed in <footer>
which often makes sense,
but is considered bad form
exactly equal to <title>
too dissimilar ...

I have this working. I'll try to describe the solution so it's useful for everyone.
