Press Release

Content Management System

Edit in progress...

The purpose of this tutorial is to illustrate the basic process of how CMS is deployed, including both developer preparation and the content production process itself.

Getting Started

Support files for all demos are located in the demo directory of the CMS distribution. For this demo, you will need to execute the press.sql script in the demo/sql directory. This script uses the content repository API to perform the following actions:

  1. Create a new content type named "Press Release"
  2. Add a custom attribute, location, to the "Press Release" content type.
  3. Specify that the user input for the location should be a text box.
  4. Create a few simple pages under the page root.
  5. Create a folder named press to hold press releases.
  6. Create a simple index page and a press release in the press folder.
  7. Register a template as the default for the "Press Release" content type.

All these operations are (or will be) accessible through the CMS UI as well.
