SecurePublisher Frequently Asked Questions
Can SecurePublisher automatically publish and retire content on a schedule?
All content can be posted and expired at predetermined times. When creating or editing a page, users may simply edit the metadata fields indicating the start date, expiration date, and which folder (if any) the content should be moved to upon expiration.
This is a great way to automate the management of time sensitive information. Coming events, for example, can be automatically removed after the event has passed.
Can I schedule content to publish at a later date?
Publishing can be triggered manually, through a workflow step, or on an automated schedule. Publish and expiration dates can be added to all content. If an expiration date is added, the user also has the option of selecting an archive folder that the page should be moved to upon expiration. This can be done at the content item level and at the collection (folder) level.
Is SecurePublisher content searchable?
Yes, both standard and archived SecurePublisher content is searchable by headline, keywords, date, author, section and/or category.
How does SecurePublisher tie in to a web server?
SecurePublisher has a robust publishing engine designed to bake the files out in the development environment, and synchronize those environments with one or more production servers. The assembled content is transformed into native XML files, standard HTML, and/or any scripting language desired. The strength of this system is that upon publishing of content, the information is completely decoupled from the CMS, allowing it to operate independently in any standard environment. Single points of failure such as database connections and third party servers are mitigated.
Does SecurePublisher support secure publishing?
Absolutely, SecurePublisher supports secure publishing through the use of industry standard secure transport methods such as Secure Hyper Text Transfer Protocol (HTTP using SSL), Secure File Transfer Protocol (SFTP), and Virtual Private Network (VPN). The organization may also implement the secure transfer utility of their choice.
Can SecurePublisher be used with multiple web servers?
SecurePublisher supports an unlimited number of web servers. The system has a concept of "Destinations" whereby content can be published in a server-independent fashion to as many servers as necessary.
