| User Management |
All IDX e-CMS users have a username and
password to access the system via their
web browser. The site administrator determines
which areas of the site each user has access
to, and what actions they can perform, including:
| |
|
creating or modifying
articles. |
| |
| |
|
modifying other users'
articles. |
| |
| |
|
sorting articles. |
| |
| |
|
creating or modifying
sections. |
| |

| Content Delivery and
Management |
| Content entered into IDX e-CMS is normally
made available on the website immediately.
The user is able to control this by specifying
a publication date for that article. Only
after that date/time is passed will the content
appear. Similarly, each article may have an
expiration date. The user may decide that
when an article expires, it will be deleted,
or archived. |
| The IDX e-CMS interface provides a simple
way for controlling the order that content
is displayed within a section of a website.
Simply clicking ‘up’ and ‘down’
arrows next to each entry will move it up
and down the list. |
| Content can be hidden/shown at any time,
or archived, regardless of any archive date
set. Deleted content are sent to a Recycle
Bin where they can be retrieved, or permanently
deleted at a later date. |
| When editing content, the user can always
see who created the content, and when, as
well as who last modified it. |

| Web-based |
| Being web-based means that no software needs
to be installed on your computer. The software
can also be accessed from any Internet connected
computer anywhere in the world, from work,
at home or on the move. |

| Content Publish Dates |
| Users can set a date to publish content
to the site. This allows content to be entered
at a convenient time, and they will automatically
be shown on the site at a later time and date. |

|
| Content Expiration
Dates |
| Every content element can have an expiration
date, this can be used to either archive the
content or delete the content at a certain
time and at a certain date. |

| File/Image Uploads |
| Any IDX e-CMS content may have images or
files associated with it. Users simply browse
their machine for the required file, and upload
it. IDX e-CMS will automatically rescale images
if necessary, as well as generate thumbnail
images. Depending on the templates used to
display the article, associated files/images
are displayed, or links produced to allow
people to access the file. |

| Flexible Architecture |
| The modular architecture of the IDX e-CMS
system allows components to be integrated
seamlessly into existing websites. This allows
websites to take advantage of the templating
system, the XML-based content entry and validation
system, and the image uploading and manipulation
routines within their own environment. As
a result, highly dynamic, user-driven websites
can be delivered more quickly with proven
technology. |

| Robust Security |
| The flexible architecture of the IDX e-CMS
system allows you to develop a robust security
scheme, based on content rights to content.
This allows websites to take advantage of
advanced security without the need to depend
on the IT stuff. |
