Features
Here is a list of most important features:
General
Full flavoured Web Content Management system for Lotus Domino. Edit content via Notes client, serve it to the web.
Extremly flexible mechanism for implementing automatic navigation.
Very fast due to sophisticated caching.
Efficient and fast development of layout and functionality for web sites. Easy maintenance.
Easy to use GUI for users.
Own logging mechanism if you don't want to use HTTP logs.
Prepared to custom extensions.Backend
Backend is implemented as java servlet and runs on the domino server.
The backend does all the hard work and caches data (computed HTML stuff), so that the next access to the same kind of data is very fast.
Backend can serve multiple CMS databases.
Backend controls the creation of domino backend objects and makes sure that there is no waste of memory.
Backend writes a log of it's activities and can be set to different log levels.
Backend can write a log entry for every access to a CMS document from the web. The log entry contains clear text titles and not only cryptic IDs.
All logging runs in seperate threads on the server and does not slow down the site.
Backend does maintenance tasks in a seperate thread. Web development
Content is structed in areas (categories). Areas can span multiple levels.
All kind of automatic navigators can be developed. A navigator can display elements for CMS documents based on their area and level.
You can display multiple navigators on one page.
You can define navigators which display only documents of a certain level.
Automatic expand/collapse functionality in navigators.
Automatic handling of active/deactive elements in navigators.
Automatic handling of navigator elements as text or image.
Navigators can display the result of a full text search to display only documents of specific criterias.
Template system: a content is assigned to a HTML template. In the HTML you define how fields of the content document should display in the web.
Content documents are assigend to standard templates, but you can force using another template by an URL parameter.
In a template you define HTML with embedded domino formulas (named 'DML' here). With that you can easily create a very dynamic site.
You can hold common used HTML/DML fragments as 'component', which you can include in several templates.
Templates for result of a full text search so that you can display search results as you like.
Support for centrally stored stylesheets.
Support for centrally stored JavaScript? code.
Support for centrally stored file resources.
... and so much more not coming to my mind at this moment :-)User GUI
Users create content based on content types. In a content type you define all neccessary properties for content documents, so that the user does not need to care about that.
Users create content with NotesRicht? text, but you can also create custom subforms so that the user works with custom fields.
Optional version management with separation of published and work versions of a content.
Automatic optimization for search engines - meta tags are create automatically out of the content, you can define standard keywords etc.
You can define edit rights for each area so that one group of users only can edit content in one area and another group in another area.
Buttons for write common needed HTML tags into the content field.
Possibility to store files (images, PDFs...) in a central place and link to them.
Usage of central stored text blocks.
