General

Rich Text Editor

The Rich Text component is the most widely used component. It allows CMS Authors to create, edit and delete basic text with additional rich text features such as links and bulleted lists.

Image

The Image component allows users to place images within the context of a page. Images are often worked into other components, but this component is used to place a stand-alone image within a page.

Photo Gallery

The Photo Gallery component is meant to allow CMS Authors the ability to gather a collection of related photos and present them in a lightbox-style presentation. Depending on the column space an author is placing the gallery; there are two gallery styles.

Photos are pulled from the Digital Asset Management system and any pre-defined metadata within the DAM will automatically pre-populate individual photo data fields in the component's dialog edit menus.

Table

The Table component displays content structured in a standard table layout with limited styling options.

Reference

The Reference component allows users to reference a different component from another page (or source) in the site and display a copy of that content on their page.  Some components are ineligible for referencing, but when allowed helps CMS Authors to better provide more up-to-date content.

Expandables

The Expandable component builds a list of abbreviated copy that when clicked will expand to show additional copy. The expandable component will provide the means to create, edit and delete this copy.

Video Player

The Video Player component is used to display video within a Web page. This component will pull uploaded FLV (edited & encoded) videos from the Digital Asset Management system to display in the video player.
