Hi,

I’m trying to evaluate how Radiant will fit with sites I develop for  
lay-people (salt of the earth) who will want to edit some content, but  
who may get freaked out by too many \<r:foo/\> or other codey bits. Is  
there any way to mark some page parts as “admin/dev only” so that  
customers can see/update only those parts that are pure text?

Thanks!

James

Right now there isn’t such functionality. But you could be interested
