Asbru Web Content Management 6.0 Released
London, United Kingdom, March 9, 2006 --
Asbru Software has released version 6.0 of the Asbru Web Content
Management system designed to provide control and simplicity for
non-technical users while maintaining flexibility and power for
developers.
Version 6.0 of the Asbru Web Content Management system is a major
upgrade with many new features and usability improvements for the core
web content management system as well as added flexibility for
developers.
Among the new features is the ability to personalize the content
delivered to website visitors. Depending on the website visitor’s
Internet domain name or web browser language preference settings
website visitors can be routed to different web content. The
personalization improvements also include the possibility for website
visitors to subscribe to various website sections.
Multi-lingual/multi-version content administration has also been
improved and now offers better control of different versions of the
same content. Workflow processes to notify translators of changes to a
master language version have also been added.
Version 6.0 also adds significant improvements to the system’s content
listing functionality. There are now a wider range of options to choose
from when deciding what, how and when content is to be included on
content lists. Among the many new options are the ability for users to
include custom data in lists, limit the number of items displayed in
lists, present lists in custom tables and display content published
within a specified time period.
Other changes to the product include support for management of users
through external LDAP directory server administration software/services
and support for Dublin Core Metadata. Other custom metadata standards
based on different semantics are also supported.
For developers a custom template/script programming API has been added
making it easy to integrate content from the web content management
system with custom or third-party applications.
The new version also includes extensions to the system’s access control
scheme, significant enhancements to search capabilities, functionality
to avoid broken links and missing images, and support for quick and
easy rebranding of the system.
