Some simple startpoints

My name is Steven Heynderickx and I have been using Wikidot for more then 3 years now I guess, could be longer. Wikidot is a wonderful tool that enables you to make sites in very little time with a lot of cool functionality.

However if your site starts to grow you need some tools or functionality that is not yet available in wikidot… or which is a combination of some cool tools you did not yet think of.

On this Website I explain and I made available some of those "extended" uses that can really help managing your site. AND!!! as the title might suggest… I kept it as simple as possible.

Some of the features are on this site, but for some features I made a separate site… In that way, a separate site hold only the functionality and coding needed for that specific use. Again to make it as clear and easy as possible to understand.
