Hi
I'm in the process of moving our current website platform over to SilverStripe 3.1 on a Windows environment. I have a question about the use / migration of multiple templates. We have 13 templates (that have different links) that have over 300 web pages in total and am trying to figure out the best way to make the "best use" of SilverStripe to migrate this content easily. Are there any add-ons or features that SilverStripe provides that are useful? Any ideas are welcome :-)

Cheers
Karn

Inheritance.

Templates have their on sort-of 'inheritance' (more like a fallback list), so if your pages are similar to each other and inherit from a familiar root, then that will simplify things.
Eg. How the tutorials cover this.
