oops…

seemed some of the content is filtered

just add :db to the end of remember_token_expires_at at line 9.

In:
bort\spec\fixtures\users.yml

Line 9:
remember_token_expires_at:

should be:
remember_token_expires_at:

Or the specs will fail.

This project looks really helpful for me, thanks. I’m using it to build a sensible set of foundations before building a site on top of that.

Just wondering though, how do people go about bulding a skeleton set of basic pages. I mean, I see provision here for content management of some kind, e.g. in the application layout file I see mention of @page_title . How do people manage page content? Is something like, “./script/generate scaffold page_content page_title:string page_content:text” a good place to start?

Hey! Good work.
I think you should add resource_controller to plugin list - I find this one very useful

There’s a brief write-up on the CREATIVE Times website about Bort too (thanks to Patrick Ward for publishing it to the main articles section).
