Wikis & Collaboration

Enhanced Blogs
Ektron’s built-in blogging technology is enhanced to support blog creation and moderation by registered site members. It also now includes a standard blog API to interface with and get updates from MS Office 2007 and integrate with other desktop blogging tools.

Better Forums
v7.0 adds new features to the forums control, including: paging, IP address restriction, automatic restricted word replacement, predefined signature lines, upload and attachment capabilities, RSS subscriptions, history of a member’s posts, user rankings and a terms and conditions disclaimers.

New Navigation Tools
CMS400.NET’s new search language API enables the generation of dynamic summaries based on content and assets. Index search technology searches content for site visitors seeking information, ensuring a richer user experience, including:

• Better performance delivering more accurate search results quickly
• Result ranking displays only the most relevant content listing
• Customized search queries for drilling into relevant areas of web sites

Folksonomies & Taxonomies
Ability to tag and classify content: Ektron’s hierarchal taxonomy classifies and structures web pages and managed documents into logical groupings based on their content. Ektron’s taxonomy provides the option of tagging one piece of content with many different category associations. It can also be used to limit the scope of a search to reduce the amount of irrelevant content returned, providing a very powerful site navigation tool.

GeoMapping
CMS400.NET v7.0 brings GPS mapping technology to web content management. Ektron’s GeoMapping functionality enables content to be tagged with longitude and latitude coordinates to leverage MS Virtual Earth and Google Earth.
