Sorry to be resurrecting this old post, but I've just upgraded my
application version number up to 7637 and started poking around all of
the changes. I noticed Hans' forum WYSIWYG additions and boy is that a
big win. The problem that I'm still facing is that I just don't see
where the editing of the home page that Hans mentioned falls within the
hotel backend. The hotel frontend works like a champ. The hotelbackend
seems to work perfectly - but I'm still a little lost on where
management of this content actually resides.
So, when I log in to hotelbackend - I'm at the main screen. I have two
sets of tabs - where do I go from here for simple content management
(pages not associated with products or categories)? These end up being
xml files, correct?
Once I've got that - I have a product category that needs to have it's
META information, and three parts of the page be configurable content
(it at least seems to be outside of the normal stuff that I do for a
product) - where shall I do this?
I'm happy to make the phone call to anyone who fully understands this
piece - it's a big deal for my customer. Thanks to everyone for their help.
Cheers,
Tim

I noticed in a recent review with a client that the Wysiswig HTML editor in the content manager is not longer there and hasn't been replaced with the new one. This would also be nice to have in the Product->Content screen in the Catalog Manager.

Some revision management stuff has also been added (as part of the CompDoc stuff) that could be used to customize the admin part of this to support keeping historical changes, rolling back, etc.
