Hey I'm Lee. My blog was put up to house useful nuggets I could refer back to, document my learning curves on new technologies and house tutorials I write for Umbraco and other .NET stuff.

Using BlogEngine.NET As A Content Management System (CMS)

'If' I can get my workload sorted in the next couple of weeks, I'm going to attempt to do something I have always wanted to do - Turn the latest BlogEngine.NET into a content management system!  I looked into this a little while back, as I'd love to have the ability to use LiveWriter to make new pages and add the content. 

For my own reference here's some useful links I have found so far, which should prove very useful for what I want to do

The main problem I have found initially when creating a page using LiveWriter you don't have an option for selecting whether it appears in the main navigation or not, as I was going to create a multi level page navigation control.

I'll update this page more when I start getting my teeth into it.
