Info

eMPower Because web pages can share the same layout, it is useful to determine which types of documents will use a template. Templates are stored as “.CFM” files and are not kept in the database. If during the evolution of your site the need for a new template arises, you simply create a new one, store it in a directory accessible to eMPower, and define new document types using the new template. You can even modify the layout of an existing template, reincorporate it, and the documents will automatically flow into and adjust to the new layout. eMPower Administrator Manual, Version 3.5 5
Concepts Concepts The eMPower product implements some specialized concepts and processes that make the product as effective as possible. Understanding these concepts before you use the product will help leverage your Web site development efforts. You will encounter the concepts and terminology discussed in this chapter as you use eMPower. Ektron’s eMPower Web Page Ektron's eMPower web page is different than a normal static web page. In a static web page each page is an HTML file. With eMPower each page is dynamically built using a template and one or more content blocks that are stored in a database. The template determines how the Web page is laid out. The content blocks are used to populate the template in the arrangement determined by the template. The content blocks in the database are used for building and displaying the web page as determined by the web administrator. The web administrator sets up rules and permissions that determine which content blocks get displayed. These rules and permissions also determine which content blocks the Site Maintainers can view and modify. Site Maintainers can range from writers, editors, illustrators, designers, content approvers, etc. An eMPower page has two views: normal view and editor view. Normal view is what the public sees after a web page has been reviewed and published. Editor view is what a Site Maintainer sees after logging in to eMPower. After logging as a Site Maintainer, you will see frames around some of the content blocks in the web page. These frames indicate that those blocks are maintained by eMPower and can be managed by the person who has logged in. It is possible that only a few sections, or blocks, of the pages will contain frames. The menu options that a Site Maintainer sees depends on the permissions set by the site administrator for that User and the state of the content block. These frames all have a pop-up menu above each frame. The menus offer certain selections, such as check-out, edit, create, view history etc. The selections are determined by both the permissions that have been assigned to the person logged into the site and the state of the content block, e.g., waiting for approval, checked out, etc. eMPower Administrator Manual, Version 3.5 6
