 * I recently created a new plugin called the “[Simple CMS Plugin](http://ryanhellyer.net/2008/03/14/simplecms/)“.
   It is designed to convert the standard WordPress administration panel into a 
   CMS suitable for basic static websites and is available here: [http://ryanhellyer.net/2008/03/14/simplecms/](http://ryanhellyer.net/2008/03/14/simplecms/)
 * In concert with this, I have also released the “Simple CMS Theme”. This is intended
   as a development theme for others to design their own themes for static websites.
 * The default themes which come with WordPress are (unsurprisingly) designed for
   blog use. However much of the functionality of those themes is not necessary 
   for a simple static website, and so I have removed all of the extraneous stuff
   which is unnecessary and only left the bare basics to help newbies build from.
 * You can download it and see a live demo of it here: [http://ryanhellyer.net/2008/03/14/simplecms_theme/](http://ryanhellyer.net/2008/03/14/simplecms_theme/)
 * If you have any questions relating to the theme, then please leave a comment 
   on the [Simple CMS Theme page](http://ryanhellyer.net/2008/03/14/simplecms_theme/).
 * I retain the full copyright to the code, but encourage others to modify it to
   suit their own needs.

 * Hi
    Is there something like this, but with a submenu in the left column? or there
   is a way to add it with this theme?
