From what I can see, this is the main page code.Hopefully the templates use the XenForo classes so that they can be edited easier to reflect the site
HTML:
<section>
<!-- h1 title, description -->
<div class="titleBar">
<h1>Example Page Title</h1>
<p id="pageDescription" class="muted baseHtml">This is an example page description.</p>
</div>
<!-- main template -->
<div id="pageNodeContent">
<div class="baseHtml messageText">
<p>This is an example page content.</p>
</div>
</div>
</section>As it's html then I can't see why you wouldn't use the XenForo classes.

Why won't you be using it for a while?
(If you don't mind my asking)
Well the importer won't be available for one (phpBB), which is the main reason.
I also can't lost the chat functionality on my site until after the F1 season finishes which is mid November.
I already considered that.phpBB to vB3 is possible
I would still need chat though so it makes no difference.
I think we'll have to if we want the pages to match the rest of the forum, won't we?I was curious as to whether or not you were going to use XenForo's classes
Of course you can create new css and classes, etc. but I don't see why you would do that.

I will use the Xen pages for good, handy link directories.
Apparently not, according to Mike and Kier.it depends on whether or not we'll be able to use php in them. We'll see

Guess since they are static, a dynamic element isn't a requirement?
Like the use of html and Xen classes that should make for some mayhem right there.
only if they know HTML
Kier told me a WYSWYG editor will not be part of the core but would be a simple mod.
So this is obviously going to be a highly desirable mod for some of us.
Once I have that although I will design some pages in html I'll be able to do very fast updates on my Pages, and also delegate this to some of my mods.
With the permissions system I will have some collaboration Pages for my mods and I to share notes on current goals, lists of certain users and their issues etc. So for example we can add notes to a paragraph about a user so that it becomes clear that the issue is not only arising with one of us, or that one of us knows an explanation that helps us all understand what's up.
Certainly this can be done on a forum with threads but it's much quicker to scan one page which several of us can edit to keep up to date.
Some of my usergroups will have their own section with an index page.
That links to their own main forum, or to several as relevant.
A theme picture to represent the section and a description of its aims.
