Content Management, Open Source, Java
A practical guide to creating and managing your own website with this proven Java/JSP based content management system. This book takes you through the process of creating content rich websites and applications using OpenCms. Although powerful and flexible, OpenCms can be daunting on first approach, but its advanced features reward the investment in learning. This book does not cover extending the operations of OpenCms with Java development. The focus is on OpenCms as a complete CMS platform in itself. It does use some JSP for extensions where required.
About this New Edition
Based on customer feedback from the acclaimed first edition "Building Websites with OpenCms", this book concentrates on the process of setting up an OpenCms 6 website, with particular attention to the new features of OpenCms 6. The 120 pages in the previous OpenCms title from Packt that covered set up and administration issues have been updated for Version 6, with over 80 new pages added on new features and broader coverage of OpenCms 6 from a non-developer point of view. If you own the previous edition, and are primarily an administrator or manager of OpenCms websites, then we recommend you buy this edition. If you are primarily a developer then you may want to consider our forthcoming title specifically on OpenCms v6 Development. For information on upgrade offers for exisiting buyers please Contact us.
