There are a wide range of tools that allow people to edit websites. Some are very easy to use, and others allow an experienced developer to do amazing things. The Digitalus Site Manager bridges the gap...it makes it easy for people with basic computer skills to maintain their site content. Advanced users have the full power of the Zend Framework, Jquery AJAX library, and the DSF framework to do virtually anything that is possible.

Adding a Module to a Page

I split this out from the other advanced options because there is a lot more to it.  In this example we are going to add a contact form to a page.  It is a good example because it has a lot of settings (mostly optional).

The first thing you need to do is open the page you want to add the form to.  Then click advanced options.

On the advanced options page click the Modules link on the view menu.

In the Add Module Page form select the module you want to add.  In this case select contact.

The form will load another select box which will show each of the different pages the module has...

Select contactForm and the contact form options form will load.  Note that many simpler modules dont have any parameters, so you are done at this stage.

The contact form is specifically set up so you can have several indipendant contact forms on your site.  Enter the recipient's name and email.  Then you can optionally set up an autoresponder.  Once this is done save your changes and check out the page on the front end.

Note: It is very important to test everything you do.  If you add a contact form make sure you are the first one to use it.

 


Web technologies are evolving at a blinding rate. The days are gone where it was good enough to just put up a beautiful design. Your customers are looking for fresh, interactive content...a site that effortlessly tells them why you are the right choice!
