These types of sites can provide news and information to local communities but also can allow vistors to communicate and network together online, usually through a member login.
We base Community and Nework type sites around the open source Portal Content Management System Joomla!
Indeed this was the original philosophy behind the whole project and is
certainly the most fulfilling and rewarding use of the Content
Management System as far as Bathcomms are concerned. We thrive in
helping organisations become online communities and
equipping them with the tools to implement collaborative workflow.
Apart from the CMS and portal capability the functionality here may
include Forums, E-newsletters, Calendars and personal messaging
systems.
In addition to this "standard functionality" we can also offer "bespoke
applications" to support your requirements. Examples of these are
easily searchable directories, news and event modules and utilities to
allow members to submit content.
Comment: This Bath based School website is a colourful and
interactive community system arranged in three parts – a public area,
secure learning area and secure management area.
