Simple CMS

Our simple CMS let’s you run every part of your site. Add news articles, blog posts, pages and more:

Full standards compliance

We have gone to great lengths to make sure every bit of our CMS generated code is in full compliance with the standards of the W3C. This is important not only for interoperability with today’s browser but also for forward compatibility with the tools of the next generation. Your web site is a beautiful thing, and you should demand nothing less.

No rebuilding

Changes you make to your templates or entries are reflected immediately on your site, with no need for regenerating static pages.

Pages

Pages allow you to manage non-blog content easily, so for example you could have a static “About” page that you manage through the CMS.

Cross-blog communication tools

Our CMS fully supports both the Trackback and Pingback standards, and we are committed to supporting future standards as they develop.

Comments

Visitors to your site can leave comments on individual entries, and through Trackback or Pingback can comment on their own site. You can enable or disable comments on a per-post basis.

Spam protection

Our CMS comes with very robust tools such as an integrated blacklist and open proxy checker to manage and eliminate comment spam on your blog.

Full user registration

CMS has a built-in user registration system that (if you choose) can allow people to register and maintain profiles and leave authenticated comments on your blog. You can optionally close comments for non-registered users. There are also plugins that hide posts from lower level users.

Workflow

You can have types of users that can only post drafts, not publish to the front page.

Typographical niceties

Our CMS uses the Texturize engine to intelligently convert plain ASCII into typographically correct XHTML entities. This includes quotes, apostrophes, ellipses, em and en dashes, multiplication symbols, and ampersands.

Intelligent text formatting

If you’ve dealt with systems that convert new lines to line breaks before you know why they have a bad name: if you have any sort of HTML they butcher it by putting tags after every new line indiscriminately, breaking your formatting and validation. Our function for this intelligently avoids places where you already have breaks and block-level HTML tags, so you can leave it on without worrying about it breaking your code.

Multiple authors

Our highly advanced user system allows up to 10 levels of users, with different levels having different (and configurable) privileges with regard to publishing, editing, options, and other users.

Bookmarklets

Cross-browser bookmarklets make it easy to publish to your blog or add links to your blogroll with a minimum of effort.
