Project Outline
Quintagroup helped Companies Incorporated to take their upscale positioning online by designing and building a sophisticated and informative bilingual Plone-based website. Several important add-on products were used for the following purposes:- To optimize this site for the search engines, i.e. to increase site visibility in search engine result pages, qSEOptimizer product was used. With its help metatags were edited. After qSEOptimizer was installed, Seo properties tab was added to a taskbar. Thus, editing Seo properties made it possible to change page title tag, meta description tag, and meta keywords tag.
- HTML code was cleared with the help of special tool, that decreases size of html file, makes it more friendly for search engines. With this tool it is possible to get rid of blank lines, gabs, unnecessary tags etc.
- Navigation titles were generated with the help of qSiloGroup. This Plone product allows making titles at a navigation menu different from page titles. SiloNavigation tab opens a window, in which we can select those items that are to be displayed in the navigation (left column), navigation titles are written in the right column.
- qVarbreadcrumbs product was used to generate breadcrumbs in a special way, different from default Plone breadcrumb formation. It was used in several situation where site structure was different from the structure by folders (three pages Where to incorporate (1), Incorporate in Any State (2), Incorporate in Nebraska (3) are all in one folder Incorporate, but to get to Incorporate in Nebraska you have initially to visit 1 and 2 pages). Such customized breadcrumbs shows clearly how to get to a certain page, even though navigation menu lacks such information. Breadcrumbs can be really helpful, providing a clear picture of the way we get to a page, and helping not to get lost on the site. qVarbearcrumbs product uses Navigation titles to generate breadcrumbs titles.
- With the help of qPloneTabs it was easy to manage the tabs according to the client's needs and wants. A special issue appeared in a list of Add-on Product Configuration. This product allows to create, edit and delete tabs. It also lets us change tabs order by simply drag-and-drop.
- Plone bilingualism was achieved with the help of LinguaPlone product. LinguaPlone enables easy translation of the content and its effective management. LinguaPlone makes it possible to navigate through different language versions of the same content. When pages and folders are copied, connection between documents in different languages is not lost. Thus, users can easily shift between languages through a drop-down menu. Initially CompaniesInc was created in English, but then it bacame bilingual: English-Spanish.
- English version was in the root of the site - http://www.companiesinc.com/
- Then we created a folder Espanol (/es) - a Spanish version of the site - http://www.companiesinc.com/es/.
- We translated all the content one by one into that
folder:
the button translate
into appeared on the toolbar, clicking on it we
chose
Espanol. - The content translated into Spanish was all pasted into Espanol folder. So, every page in English, for example, http://www.companiesinc.com/folder/page.html has its translated into Spanish equivalent in Espanol folder http://www.companiesinc.com/es/folder/page.html
- Thus, all the pages, Navigation menu, breadcrumbs, tabs and portlets were translated. A special drop-down menu appeared on every translated page in English version and the Spanish one to shift between languages. More information about managing multilingual web-site can be found here.
- CompositePack product was used for organizing and
editing text on a home page. Companies Incorporated home page
is
subdivided into several sections. CompositePack product allows
a Plone manager to build such a kind of
composite page. Thus, when
CompositePack product is installed to the site, a special tab design
appears in
the taskbar and a composite page is edited with its help. Each
part of this page can be edited separately, each possessing a
special green edit
drop-down menu,
which makes possible one section edit. When you click on edit item, select
edit and the section you
are editing spreads to the whole window width. This is a field where
you can make any edits to the section by editing its HTML code.
Besides, there is an add item drop-down menu near every section, so that we could add either a title for a section or a piece of content (HTML code), i.e. create a new section. - Quintagroup has used tableless layout for CompaniesInc Plone skin development. We've paid much attention to make HTML code valid and semantically-correct.
- Companies Incorporated provides the finest Corporations,
Limited Liability
Companies, Limited Partnership and Trusts. There is a list of
all companies that a customer can acquire at Shelf
Corporations & Aged Corporations
page. Apart from Corporate company name, this list
includes information about
State/Country in which a company is situated, its creation date, age,
price
and status (available, reserved, or sold). Information about all companies is stored in MySQL database. Z MySQL database adapter product (ZMySQLDA) was used for connection with MySQL database.
A visitor can sort the companies in the list according to any category simply by pressing the corresponding column title. These pre-established shelf corporations that CompaniesInc provides can be ordered by the telephone call to CompaniesInc Call Center. Call center consultants change company's status immediately after it is sold or reserved at Database Manage page so that customers have up-to-the-moment information at their disposal.
Apart from status change, Quintagroup developed a possibility for CompaniesInc Database Manager to edit this table in a simple way. Each line of the table has edit link for editing information about one company. Besides, there are actions buttons that enable to edit several items all together. This is how database manager can change companies' status to available, sold, or reserved; and edit price. Add new button allows to add 3 new companies to the list at the same time.
