Content Management System
UCD’s new Content Management System, Site Manager, will transform the way websites are published and managed at UCD. The Content Management system (CMS) facilitates users to easily create, manage and publish content to websites through a set of user-friendly browser based publishing tools. No longer will UCD content providers require expertise in html or web authoring applications such as Dreamweaver or Frontpage.
This CMS will also enable authors to reuse and share content across a number of publishing channels including standard websites, our new intranet environment and UCD Connect.
A listing of sample sites currently maintained by the CMS system is available here
