Please select the links below to see screenshots of the Asbru
Website Manager and see the Asbru Website Manager User Guide for
full details.
Getting Started
Easy Installation
The Asbru Website Manager is easily installed on your web server. Make
sure there are access and permissions to copy files to your web server
and your website directory/folder through FTP (File Transfer Protocol)
or Microsoft Networking or similar. Then just
decompress the Asbru Website Manager package and copy all the files to your content directory.
The only additional requirement is that the Asbru Website Manager
system web server process/user has file create and write permissions
for all your website files and folders.
100% Browser Based
The
website manager is 100% browser based. When installed on your web
server you can login and update your web sites from any standard web
browser from anywhere in the world. To login just open
your web browser and go to the administration URL, which is your domain
name followed by "/webmanager/". Then just enter your username and password
to the login screen that appears and login.
Browse & Edit Your Website
Browse
your website in Browse & Edit mode until you find the web page you
wish to edit. Then just press an update link and you can edit your page
in a WYSIWYG editor with a word processor like user interface. Browse
& Edit mode also gives you access to add new pages and delete
existing pages.
Website Administration
Content Directories
If
you prefer to view, update and delete your website pages directly from
your website folders you can do so from the Website Content toolbar
option. From here you can also add new web pages.
All folders and subfolders on the web server are visible by
default, but you can choose to restrict sensitive folders so they are
not visible in the website manager. You can also choose, which file types to display and to allow users to create/upload.
Advanced Scripting
If
you are an advanced user you can add Advanced Scripting to your web
pages. The Advanced Scripting includes HTML HEAD code and HTML BODY
ONLOAD code and enables you to add links to your style sheets. The
advanced scripting also enables you to add more advanced features such
as Javascript programming for rollover graphics to your website.
Meta Information
Add
meta information to web pages via an easy to use user interface. Add
the author of the web page, a description, copyright information and keywords. The meta
information can be used for internal administration of web pages or for
search engine support and search engine ranking optimisation.
Media Library
Add, replace and delete media files on the web server in the Media Library.
Media files include images, Flash animations, Java Applets, documents, PDF files and other files.
All folders and subfolders on the web server are visible in the Media Library by
default, but you can choose to restrict sensitive folders so they are
not visible in the website manager. You can also choose, which file types to display and to allow users to create/upload.
Unlimited Number of Users
Add
as many users as required to the User Database. Users added to the User
Database can login to the Asbru Website Manager and update web pages
and media. In addition to the login and password you can add a name and
an email address for each user.
Configuration
The Asbru Website Manager is configured to work directly after installation.
However, if the website superadministrator does want to change the
system and feature configuration he/she can do so via an easy to use
interface in the Configuration section of the Website Manager.
WYSIWYG Editing
What-You-See-Is-What-You-Get Editing
Web
pages are edited in a feature-rich and easy to use WYSIWYG
(What-You-See-Is-What-You-Get) editor. The WYSIWYG editor enables users
to see the effect of changes to the content straight away. The WYSIWYG
editor is automatically loaded with your content when you update a web
page.
Editing & Formatting
In the WYSIWYG editor you can edit text, format font face, set style,
size, colour, indentation, alignment and much more. You can also
position content absolutely. Any editing and formatting you make will
be immediately reflected in what you see in the editing area.
Insert Content
In
the WYSIWYG editor you can insert a variety of objects including bullet
lists, forms, tables, special characters, images, Flash
animations, Java Applets, e-mail hyperlinks,
downloadable/viewable files, links to other website content pages and
external websites, anchors/bookmarks, print page breaks, content boxes
and frames with other local/external web pages.
Copy/Cut & Paste and Drag & Drop
Copy/Cut
& Paste and Drag & Drop edit content from and to external
applications such as Microsoft Word as well as within the Asbru Website Manager.
Undo/Redo
If
you make changes to the content that you regret you can undo and redo
the changes to retrieve the content as it was before the changes. The undo/redo
feature is multi-level so you can undo/redo changes several steps backwards or forwards.
CSS Style Sheet Formatting
Apply
CSS Style Sheet formatting to your content. Available styles are
automatically extracted from the configured style sheet and can be selected
in the WYSIWYG editor. The effects of the CSS Style Sheet
formatting are seen directly in the WYSIWYG editor.
Spell Checking
Check
the content for misspellings in 44+ languages. In the spell checking
process misspelled words will be highlighted and the WYSIWYG editor
will suggest a list of words to replace misspelled words.
Import & Clean Content From Microsoft Word
Content can be copied and pasted directly from Microsoft Word and
other external applications. Often Microsoft Word uses unwanted HTML
tags and attributes. These can be removed with the Clean HTML Code
feature. The feature gives the user maximum flexibility in selecting specific tags and attributes to remove from the HTML code.
Table Editing
Edit
tables in WYSIWYG mode in the editor. Change table properties such as
table width, height and border. Change row, column and cell properties
such as background colours and alignment. Assign style sheet classes
and ids to tables, rows and cells.
Table dimensions can easily be changed by deleting or inserting
rows, columns and cells. Users can also insert table caption,
table header rows and table footer rows.
Form Editing
Edit
form parameters and attributes in WYSIWYG mode. Add or remove a variety
of form buttons, text input fields, check-boxes, radio-buttons and select
lists and set the parameters and attributes for these in easy to use windows.
Plain Mode
Users can easily switch to Plain mode, which is basically the same
as WYSIWYG mode, but with display of table, form and image guidelines. The Plain
editing mode also displays the content without styles applied and thus
provides a view of the content that may sometimes be useful when
editing.
DOM Inspector
Use
the DOM inspector at the bottom of the editing area to get a quick view
of the HTML tags surrounding currently selected content.
The DOM inspector also provides a shortcut for users to select and remove unwanted HTML tags.
Raw HTML mode
When
editing in the WYSIWYG editor it is easy to switch to raw HTML-mode and
see and edit the HTML code for the content created. This gives
unlimited HTML and JavaScript programming flexibility and power for technical users.
