Liferay’s Web Content Management

Liferay’s Web Content Management (WCM) is a system which allows non-technical users to publish content to the Web without having advanced knowledge of Web technology or programming of any sort. Liferay Content Management System (CMS) empowers you to publish your content with a simple point-andclick interface, and it helps you to keep your site fresh.

You can use WCM to author both structured and unstructured content. Unstructured content is authored using an HTML-based WYSIWYG editor. Structured content is authored and displayed by combining Web Content Structures, Web Content Templates, and Web Contents. Structures and Templates are defined individually using a text editor or through the Liferay WCM UI.

Portal Architectur

        In the illustration below, each arrow may be read using the words “can be a member of.” It is important to note that the diagram illustrates only users and their collections. Permissions ` do not flow through all of these collections; permissions can be assigned to roles only.

The following concepts are used throughout Liferay:

·         Portals are accessed by Users.

·         Users can be collected into User Groups.

·         Users can belong to Organizations and join/leave Communities.

·         Roles are collections of permissions on portal objects that can be assigned to Users.

·          Satellite Office. Communities are not hierarchical.š Regional Office šOrganizations can be grouped into hierarchies, such as Home Office

·         Users, Groups, and Organizations can belong to Communities that have a common interest.

·         Within Organizations and Communities, users can belong to Teams, which are groupings of users for specific functions within a community or organization.

Users, Organizations and Communities have two separate collections of Pages called Public and Private Pages. Each page can have as many applications (portlets) as desired. The page administrator can lay out these applications into zones defined by a default or customized layout template.
