DD-CMS is the easy CMS for folks who have more important things to do than learn how to code up a web page.
DD-CMS is a content management system for websites and is built with the general public in mind. It is intended for use by those without any html knowledge or for those who can't afford the time to edit html pages by hand. Only basic computer skills are needed to add or edit content on a website. You don't have to worry that your website design will break if you do something wrong. All page link information is handled dynamically so there's no possibility of having broken links on any of the pages. There is also an extensive help system available, if needed, to explain the various steps for creating and editing pages.
DD-CMS is not available as a packaged download. It is a collection of library code designed to be custom fitted to each website it is used on. It is a great solution for web designers that would like to offer their clients content management for new websites. It can also be customized to fit existing websites, without changing the current design or operation.
Because it is custom built for each application, DD-CMS's basic functionality can be extended for almost any use that your site may require, without bringing in a lot of extra functionality that you don't need or won't be used. This helps your site run faster and more securely since there's not a lot of extra unused code hanging around that could get in the way of efficient functionality or become a hidden security risk later. We can also adopt popular open-source applications such as blogs, forums, or shopping carts that will fit in with the design of your site and all of the administration tasks can be handled from one centralized location.
DD-CMS offers an access controlled, multi-user administration interface. You can assign users to certain areas or tasks on your website as you see fit. All of the newly created pages remain in an 'offline' state so you can set up an approval workflow if need be. Pages can also be taken offline at any time without deleting any of the content in them. You won't have to worry that the public can browse any pages that you don't want them to see, and you won't loose any work invested in their creation. Pages can be previewed whether they are online or offline through the administration interface, and edits can be previewed before they are committed to the database.
We will soon have screenshots and a demo version of the basic administration interface online. If you have any questions about the functionality of DD-CMS or would like a price quote for installing it on your existing site or for integrating it into your current project please see the Contact Information page to get in touch with us.
