Folder Explorer

Drop a feature rich folder tree element into your articles, allowing users to navigate through and manage your website’s folder structure within your front-end pages. You can manage the folder structure as well as uploading new documents and images into a selected folder. The folder explorer element will also load a document list element on the same page to display the contents of a selected folder in that document list.

Forms Creator

Capture data using the point and click form creator tool. Designed for the everyday user (no need for technical input), creating feedback, inquiry, and quote request forms is a snap.

Online Dictionary

The Online Dictionary feature of elcomCMS allows a user to set up a page, listing any number of terms, and their explanations on your website. In addition, it also allows linking of the terms so that you may link similar terms or point one term at another where there may be multiple names explaining the same concept.

Performance Optimizations

ElcomCMS welcomes a collection of performance optimizations, both under the bonnet, and features that can be utilized with your website. This includes features such as:

Browser caching
Article level output caching
Embedded article output caching
Lazy loading for elements

Persona Panel

The persona view is a new option added into the ElcomCMS admin toolbar, which allows an author to select a specific device screen size and marketing rule set to see how the current article will look to users matching that criteria.

This empowers authors to quickly see what impact their responsive design and marketing rules will have on their content and article pages.

Polls

Allows simple polls to be inserted into articles, with the ability to time control the display of these polls.

Premium Content

Premium Content allows you to provide exclusive access to content to site subscribers. Non-members will receive only the title and article description, while logged in subscribers will receive the full length content.

Print to PDF

Print to PDF is a feature that gives you the ability to enable the user to publish a page in PDF format and then print that page.

Ratings

Users can vote on how helpful or unhelpful articles within a site are. This will help you surface the most relevant and helpful content to your users.

Real-Time Personalization

Real-Time Personalization provides the ability to target individual articles based on what keyword(s) your audience types into a search engine such as Google, Yahoo! or Bing.

Real-Time Search

Real-time search is an easy way to enhance the user experience and productivity of your website, intranet or portal. When a user starts typing in the search field, results are automatically returned as they type. As the use continues to type, the results update in real-time. A ‘more results’ link offers the user the ability to view all search results on a page.

Reports

A range of reporting tools are available within ElcomCMS, dependent on which modules have been activated as part of the deployment. Reports can be based on mailing list subscribers, content created, event registrations, KPI’s met plus much more.

Then save time by automating the process of generating and distributing reports; create scheduled reports automatically sent to other users as email attachments.

Custom, purpose built reports (complete with filters) can also be created by Elcom to cater for your specific business requirements, accessible through the standard reporting dashboard.

Responsive Admin

The elcomCMS administration interface has been overhauled to be completely responsive. This allows all the admin screens to adapt and display optimally for any screen size. Leveraging the de facto standard Twitter Bootstrap responsive framework, our admin screens have also adopted a flatter design. This means that our admin screens now work on the device that you work on.

RSS Reader and Publisher

Easily display external RSS feeds on your site.
Publish fully configurable feeds of content to anyone with an RSS reader. Allow users to subscribe via RSS to real time content updates.

Search

Add search boxes to your site. This is achieved by setting up a Search element in an article. This can then be included in a master page via the embed article control.

Style sheet Library

The Style sheet Library allows you to control, add and edit, the CSS files used on the site.

Surveys and Testing

Create and report on in-depth surveys or tests. A large range of answer types (date, numeric, text, multiple choice, drop down lists, etc) are supported along with time based testing, anonymous and invitation only scenarios. Full reporting and export.

Taxonomy Manager

Create Taxonomy and use it to tag all content. Once the content is tagged, Dynamic Widgets and Enterprise Search can be enhanced to filter, refine and browse content based on the tags.

Team Workspace

Facilitate collaboration by enabling teams to quickly create work spaces, where they can easily participate in conversations and share documents around a topic or project. Work spaces allow teams to move work out of email threads and into centralized collaborative areas which are more efficient, searchable, and can be as open or private as needed. Users with the right permissions can create a Team Work space for project specific communication and content. You can add a document list, calendar, news stream, RSS feeds or any ElcomCMS module to build a specific collaborative environment.

Templates

Templates are a way of applying content and other article elements to an article when it is first created. Templates are linked to a specific master page that controls its layout.

Themes Engine

A theme is a collection of Master pages, JavaScript and CSS files, images and module/site configuration packaged into a single attributable ZIP file. Bring together all the components of a theme into single place making working with a website’s layout and design more efficient. This also allows a website’s theme to be downloaded as a ZIP file, and a new theme to be easily installed from a ZIP file as well.

User & Group Security

The Security section provides Administrators with the tools to manage users, groups of users and their access to site folders and functionality.

Workflows

Design and implement comprehensive audit processes for approval of content and forms. Access an unlimited numbers of workflow ‘baskets’ with complete parallel workflows, and the routing rules engine to adapt and branch workflows differently based on information provided in a form submission and the submitting user. Workflows can skip steps, reassign the approve or terminate early. Approvals for workflow basket steps can also be action by replying to the email notifications.

WYSIWYG Editor

Create articles and pages with the built-in content editor. The intuitive Microsoft-Word like environment provides non-technical users with the ability to author content, create tables, apply styles, create hyperlinks, import multi-media assets and more.
