If you update the wiki - let me know, if you don't think something is
clear in the docs, if something is missing, if you have a genuine
reason you haven't been using maypole - ask us - chances are what you
need is easier than you expect or something that isn't hard to add but
we never knew you needed.

I've been using maypole for a few simple CRUD apps here- it fits our needs very well. I've used the standard templates, with a few changes here and there. There were two changes I found myself making in every app here. The first change was in the view template- I replaced the standard listing of has_many tables with the same type of table found in the list template (showing all fields in the has_many tables, not just whatever stringify was set to.) For example, we have an application that tracks the employees here. In the employee view, a user can see all the employee's information (phones, addresses, titles, etc.) They can update/delete/view all relevent information from the employee view template.

I tried coming up with a generic way of doing this, so that I didn't have to do this by hand for every table. I have something that mostly works, but I'm sure it isn't the best way of doing it. I can share code/screenshots with anyone that wants to see it (or better yet, improve upon it.)

Another thing I found myself doing was guarding against cascading deletes- I used some AJAX style javascript to check if a cascading delete would occur, and warn the user if so. I'm not sure if anyone else desires this sort of thing. Again, I'm willing to share code with anyone that is interested.

Thanks,
Stephen
