I love WordPress!

It's such a simple template to work with, plus, you can build your own theme from scratch, adding all the essential components and getting rid of what you don't need.

At the moment, I feel that Kartris suffers from 'Divitis' which may or may not be to do with the way ASP.NET modules generate their default code.

Something leaner and totally customisable from a designers point of view would be a great release, say, with completely blank CSS.

ASP.NET creates a lot of the divs itself for this like update panels, etc. If you look at the .master page code itself, it's fairly simple - but the process of ASP.NET rendering a page does tend to add in a lot of complexities.

Is that because ASP.NET has become more object based with essentially 'sealed modules' creating login functions etc, whereas with PHP there seems to be a lot more scope for customising HTML to wrap the functions in?

I still maintain it would be good to have a 'vanilla' option without any ZURB Foundation content for those of us who don't want to use that particular framework as a template. v2.9003 upgrade testing is causing me extra grief because of the increasing integration with the ZURB Foundation framework.

ASP.Net puts a lot of divs into the markup as part of how it renders the controls collection. As the Microsoft code goes through the controls and forms that build up the page it will insert divs to help structure the page. As a developer there is little that any of us can do to control that.

We do get some extra control by using custom controls, and you will see them used in Kartris, but you will still need to add divs simply because it is a necessary method of working with dynamically built forms.


We are always willing to help out the community or pitch in to help you fix a problem. However, if you want a complete solution made such as a code module or new feature added you have two options. Either
1) Reach out to the Kartris internal development team at http://www.kartris.com/Contact.aspx.
2) Contact one of the Kartris approved partners at http://www.kartris.com/t-Worldwide-Developers.aspx.

Have fun and good luck coding.
