Project WebSynergy Milestone 4 Administration Guide

Content Management in WebSynergy

Liferay Portal provides out-of-the-box content management (CMS) functionality in two major areas: document management (repositories for documents and images) and publishing.

Document management is provided through WebSynergy's Document Library and Image Gallery portlets. These portlets provide intuitive management of Microsoft Office documents, PDFs, text files, and images.

Publishing in the Project WebSynergy portal is accomplished through the Web Content portlet. It features a clean separation between content (data entry) and presentation (layout design). This allows the content to conform to a consistent "look and feel." Additionally, the Web Content portlet provides a content versioning and approval paradigm (workflow). This system allows for users involved in publishing to fall naturally into three different roles:

  1. Writers create, edit, and enter content comprised of text and images.

  2. Designers create layouts that display content.

  3. Editors edit and approve final output and release it for publication to the portal.

As an example, consider the Project WebSynergy website. All of the static content is managed and published by the Web Content portlet. We can authorize other members of the WebSynergy community to write documentation, but we retain final editorial authority and security. This also allows for a mixture of portlets and Journal articles to coexist, enabling the designer to be more creative with what is displayed. Designers can integrate static content using the Journal Content portlet with a number of other function-rich portlets such as Navigation and Breadcrumb. All of this shows how useful and flexible publishing can be with the Web Content portlet.

Other portlets:

Document Library Portlet

The Document Library provides a centralized repository for various document types such as .PDF, .DOC, and .XLS, to be stored and assigns a unique URL to each of them. A company's intranet running Project WebSynergy portal can then be able to post internal documentation such as reimbursement forms and charitable donations policies for access by its employees. Alternatively, since each document has its own URL, the Asset Publisher portlet on your company's public website may display a list of PDF files of quarterly newsletters and their download links.

The Document Library supports multiple repositories that can be set with different access roles. Also, the documents in the repository are version-controlled, allowing a user to retrieve any particular revision that has been stored on the system.

Web Content portlets

The Web Content application is composed of four portlets:

Web Content

Is an administration portlet that allows the creating, updating searching and managing contents.

Web Content Display

Allows displaying of a set of contents that satisfy a set of conditions configured through the portlet preferences such as content type and community.

Web Content List

Allows displaying one or more contents manually selected from the list of available portlets. If more than one content is selected only one at a time will be shown and links will be added to allow the user to navigate to the rest of the contents.

Web Content Search

Allows users to search for web content.

the Web Content portlet is used to create all the CMS content and the Web Content Display and Web Content List portlets are used to display those contents. This portlet allows writers to easily edit content displayed on web pages without having to sort through complex code.

Definitions

Before getting into the details of how to use the Web Content portlet, it is useful to understand structures, templates, and articles; they are the backbone of the Web Content portlet's functionality.

The point of a structure is to unify journal articles with the same numbers and types of items. For example, a Management Bio section of a website might have ten biographies, each requiring an image for the executive headshot, a text for the headline, and a text area for the main biography. A structure would be created with one image, one text, and one text area, each named accordingly. This allows writers to create the individual biographies and other texts without needing to recreate the page structure for each biography.

Designers can create several templates for one structure to allow for a variety of presentations or they can give writers discretion in deciding the best layout.

All specific text and images are entered when a user adds or edits an article. This is also where a user chooses the layout based on the templates affiliated with a structure. Since multiple templates can be associated to a structure, the user can select the template that formats their article the way they want.

ProcedureTo add a Web Content portlet to the Page

  1. Login to WebSynergy.

  2. Click Add Applications from the welcome menu.

  3. Expand the Content Management folder.

  4. Click Add against the Web Content portlet.

    The Web Content portlet is added to your page.

Structures

ProcedureTo create a Structure

  1. Login to WebSynergy.

  2. Click Add Applications from the welcome menu.

  3. Expand the Content Management folder.

  4. Click Add against the Web Content portlet.

  5. To create a structure, first click the Structures tab in the Web Content portlet, and then click on the Add Structure button. The structure creation page is displayed.

    Figure 6–3 To create a Structure

    To create a Structure

    1. Specify an ID, or Select the Autogenerate ID checkbox for the system to generate an ID.

      It is recommended that you choose your own ID so that the structure will be easier to identify when associating it with templates and articles. The convention is to separate words in the ID with a hyphen as in “NEWS-LETTER-STRUCTURE”. The structure ID can not be changed once your structure has been saved, so be sure that the ID is exactly how you would want it to appear.

    2. Enter a name and a description for the structure.

    3. Design your XML Schema Definition.

      You need to define an XML schema for the structure. The Add Row button is used to add the XML scheme from the user interface. On clicking the Add Row button, a new field where you can enter a name and a content type for the field (image, text, boolean flag, etc.) is displayed. Those comfortable with XML or HTML can edit the XSL directly by clicking Launch Editor. Both methods of adding/editing elements will work, and both can be used in the same session. One simple approach is to add a few elements using the GUI and then to edit the XML directly (which will contain the syntax for the already added elements and can be copy-pasted).

      Empty spaces are not allowed within a field name. Rows can be moved up or down by clicking on Arrow buttons. You can use the Plus button to add multiple levels of rows nested inside one another. A field can be repeatable or non-repeatable. Selecting the Repeatable option makes a field repeatable. If a field is repeatable, you can repeat the field in an article using the structure. You will be able to add the field as many times as it is desired, by clicking a plus sign.

  6. Click Save.

    The Structure is created successfully. When you create a structure, the system generates a WebDAV URL for the structure. WebDAV (Web-based Distributed Authoring and Versioning) makes it possible to remotely access the structure using the WebDAV URL. To determine the WebDAV URL for the structure, open the structure in edit mode after creating it.

    For details on WebDAV visit:

    In the edit screen, you can edit anything in the structure except for the structure ID, which can not be changed once the structure has been created.

    Editing the name and description will not affect other features of the Web Content portlet, but adding, deleting, and modifying fields will affect the templates and articles that are associated with the structure. It is advisable to backup the current XML file first by clicking the Download button so that it will be easy to revert to your old structure if necessary.

    If you add fields, the articles associated will have extra fields for additional content. If you delete fields, associated content in associated articles will be deleted.

  7. Make desired changes to the Structure, and click Save to save changes.
