Administration of pages can be simplified by adding a sorting and filtering option to
the Pages tab.

Reordering should be temporarily disabled when a filter or sort is active.

A filter by Status, Parent and Keywords is suggested.
Sorting should be available for Title at least.

When only Filter by Parent is active, we can leave reorder also active for that subtree.

Personally, I disagree with the goal here. While I would like to see the Pages screen
rows be a bit slimmer (like the Files screen), and I like the idea of live filtering,
I think that the goal of optimizing administration for thousands of pages may be a
bad one.

Part of Frog and Radiant's charm lies in simplicity. Plenty of complex CMSs exist
that target the enterprise level market. It is the trade-offs and sacrifices they
made to support that level of site that make them complex.

The previous comment displayed here supports that. Just by adding filtering, we now
need to explain that reordering is disabled and set the user expectation to
increasingly complex nuances.

The current Pages screen both displays and models the hierarchy in a very effective
manner, that changing to optimize for higher page counts might fundamentally
undermine. Adding simple "expand all" and "collapse all" links might be a good
starting point.

... just my 2 cents

very good point here !! Frog have to stay simple

Colins has a good point... Bebliuc is going to add the expand all/collapse all thing.

Bebliuc, please let me know the current status of adding the expand all/collapse all
addition in prep for 0.9.4 stable release. Thanks

Moved to 0.9.5

Just an idea, but in theory you could extract the archives/news/blog stuffs from the
Pages tab and give it its own tab. This wouldn't really help with sorting through
hundreds of blog posts in and of itself, but it would help with the page
ordering/layout of the pages tab.

Forgive me if my comments are inappropriate, I am merely trying to give advice and/or
new light on the subject
