Can we use the responsive prototype, website generated by RLM (i.e., layout), to export into a Content Management System (CMS) (e.g., Drupal, Wordpress, liveSite, Concrete5, Joomla, etc) as a tool to finalize my website.

If so, where are the knowledge base articles posted in the forum?

When you export a layout, what you get are the html pages you have created, plus any css files that are necessary for it to work. It can not be exported in any other way, at least not yet (Maybe we will see something like that in a future version?).
What I think will work, though, is to use it in an EasyCMS environment. But that means that you have to change everything into php yourself. I did something like that, before RLM was born, with a reponsive site that I coded myself, and it works great. So I would think that it will work with RLM too.
Ha en riktig god dag!

I have a simple CMS with which I regularly use RLM templates. It will work.

Did you know that Web Form Builder can be used for both simple and complicated forms and that it's not limited to the default fonts and buttons? Take a look at a form we developed for WindowTinting.com.

There should be no problem using it in a CMS site.
All the sites I have done is made with Joomla.
Just remember to use the Bootstrap 2 Grid. If you don't do this you may have a problem with images not being responsive.
I know it is Bootstrap 2 but this is really not a problem.
RLM should be released with Bootstrap 3 later this year.

Time to toot the horn for my favorite CMS / CMF: MODX lets you use any HTML / CSS (i.e. client-side pages) as templates. Go have a look: http://modx.com/

Yes, I looked just like that in 1962.

I can't hear what I'm looking at.
It's easy to overlook something you're not looking for.

Thanks. I was thinking more just a very broad overview. For example, I knew of an early file editing program in which you simply surrounded the text that you wanted to edit with a couple of tags. If MODX works with any design, I'm wondering if it works the same way.
