Articles, Categories and Tags are all held in the database for resilience.

Editing articles

The Editor allows articles to be created or amended via a user-friendly graphical interface, with similar functionality to popular software packages such as Microsoft® Word®.

Publishing articles

Publication updates the Articles Page of your website with the new article using a URL based on its title.

The Article Headlines, Article Categories and Tag Cloud are automatically updated every time a new article is published, or an existing article amended.

Headlines ticker

The system also includes a Headlines Ticker that can be used to add a "real time" feel to your website. You can see an example of this on our Home page.
