Dynamic Content Types

With Flextype you can define unlimited content types with unique behavior and custom fields. If you have used WordPress before, you a probably familiar with custom post types which are used to extend WordPress beyond a regular blog. In Flextype these are called entries and can be used to create any content type that is both easy to manage from an administration perspective as well as providing developers with the flexibility to build dynamic applications.

Poor Image & File Management

While most things in Flextype are designed to be simplistic and intuitive. It falls short when it comes to image and file management within the admin panel itself. I find working with images tedious, as there is no way to upload multiple images, or manipulate images from the admin panel.
