0:06 hey everybody Joe workman here and this
0:08 is gonna be video 2 of the getting
0:11 started series for total CMS now video 1
0:14 went over some of the core CMS features
0:16 that are a part of easy CMS and total
0:19 CMS now in this video we're going over
0:22 just the features that basically build
0:25 on top of that inside total CMS so the
0:29 features of this video are just going to
0:31 comprise of features that are part of
0:32 total CMS now really a lot of the core
0:36 concepts are still the same it's just
0:39 different features you still need to tie
0:41 your CMS ID on the admin side to the CMS
0:45 ID on the content side really that is
0:48 the core concept of the CMS very basic
0:52 again
0:53 it all works within rapidweaver ok so
0:56 this isn't gonna be too long of a video
0:57 I'm not gonna do some deep dives into
0:59 all the settings for the stacks that we
1:01 see please check out the more in-depth
1:04 tutorials for each individual component
1:06 for text and images and galleries and
1:09 files and so make sure you look out for
1:12 in-depth tutorials on those and those
1:14 will actually dive more in depth into
1:17 each setting ok in this video we're
1:19 gonna go over just a quick general
1:21 overview of how everything works okay so
1:25 without further ado let's jump on in so
1:28 here we have the total CMS demo project
1:30 that ships with total CMS and is
1:32 available for download from our
1:33 documentation portal now as you notice
1:36 this looks very similar to the easy CMS
1:38 file that we used in the getting started
1:41 video 1 so but there's a few additional
1:46 things below the tab container you'll
1:48 notice that we have a gallery ok we have
1:51 the ability manage videos you have a
1:53 slideshow we have the ability to
1:56 actually control a single file download
1:58 as well as entire file depots next we
2:02 have the ability to display news feeds
2:04 as well and the same thing happens on
2:07 the admin side right we have admin
2:10 containers to manage all of these things
2:13 so we have as we saw in the video one
2:15 okay all the stuff above here as well as
2:17 the ability to add new images the
2:20 ability to edit the video manage our
2:24 news feeds as well as upload new files
2:27 so if we look at the edit page for the
2:29 admin area I'm going to scroll all the
2:31 way down to the gallery section because
2:33 all the content above we've kind of
2:35 reviewed in the last video so here we
2:38 have the gallery and as you see I told
2:41 you that was going to be the same exact
2:43 concept right we have a CMS ID and I
2:46 assign this to have it an ID of gallery
2:48 and guess how I display this gallery on
2:51 the content page I have a gallery
2:54 content stack that has the CMS ID of
2:57 gallery right this isn't rocket science
2:59 all this works really really well it's
3:02 simple to setup and if we scroll down we
3:06 have the video stack to edit the video
3:08 right so that we can paste YouTube and
3:11 Vimeo URLs in here and have it easily
3:14 displayed and of course the option here
3:17 is you add a CMS ID and it ties to the
3:20 CMS ID on the content side now the feed
3:25 stack is maybe where it diverges a
3:27 little bit where it's a slightly more
3:29 complicated because there are two stacks
3:32 for feeds we have the feed post stack
3:36 where we can actually create new feed
3:39 items okay and we can either have an
3:41 image and text or text only feed items
3:44 and then we have a feed list stack and
3:48 this feed list stack will actually
3:50 display all of our existing feed items
3:53 and allow us to edit them or delete them
3:56 if we need to but even feeds they're all
4:00 tied with the same CMS ID so here I have
4:04 set the CMS ID in the feed list to be
4:06 total CMS and then the feed post stack I
4:09 also have that set to have this CMS ID
4:11 of total CMS now if we go further down
4:15 the page we'll see that we have files
4:17 and depots and guess what these are set
4:20 up the same exact way as everything else
4:23 we set up a CMS ID for our Depot and a
4:27 separate CMS ID for our file and these
4:30 are managed with this CMS ID so if we
4:35 preview our admin page let's see how
4:37 some of this functions for the admin
4:39 gallery it behaves pretty much how you
4:41 would expect it drag and drop a new
4:43 image here and it will be automatically
4:46 added to your gallery and just as with
4:49 the static images we can control the alt
4:51 tags as well as get warehouse to image
4:54 URLs to every single image further down
5:00 we have our videos and here you can
5:02 paste in any YouTube or Vimeo URL and
5:05 that Vimeo or YouTube video will be
5:08 displayed in your content areas and
5:10 feeds when you add a new post here you
5:14 type in your text and drag and drop a
5:16 new image and when it's done adding it
5:18 will be automatically added to your list
5:20 over here on the right and if you've
5:23 ever messed up on a post you could
5:24 simply click on that post and you can
5:27 edit both the image and the text
5:29 all right within the admin interface now
5:33 managing files with the CMS is just as
5:36 easy as managing images just drag and
5:39 drop the file of any type it could be a
5:42 zip or an image or a PDF and it will
5:45 automatically upload that file to the
5:47 Depot and if you're managing a
5:50 individual file you can upload and
5:53 replace the same exact file to ensure
5:55 that that file URL never changes now if
5:59 we were to look at the content side will
6:01 notice that the gallery and the
6:04 slideshow stacks are tied to the CMS gal
6:07 ID of a gallery so in this instance we'd
6:10 set up the gallery ID to be gallery
6:12 inside the admin page and we set up the
6:15 CMS ID to match that so that will be
6:17 displayed on our content area same thing
6:23 with video and file and file Depot they
6:26 all work just as magically as the other
6:29 ones simply tie it to the same CMS ID
6:32 and the content will be displayed on
6:34 your web page
6:36 so let's quickly review some of all the
6:39 stacks that
6:40 are included inside total CMS again just
6:43 as we saw in the first video we have two
6:46 sets of stacks available we have the
6:49 colored background icons are the stacks
6:51 that are for the admin interface and the
6:55 icons with the white backgrounds are the
6:57 stacks for the content of your webpages
7:00 if you notice all the icons are the same
7:03 they're just simply inversed so the feed
7:07 admin area is the feed icon and we have
7:10 the corresponding exact icon just
7:13 inversed
7:13 for our content pages so it's really
7:16 simple to display and figure out exactly
7:19 which stacks you need now some other
7:23 stacks that were included that we didn't
7:25 really review today
7:26 one is the protect stack and this is
7:29 similar to our page safe stack and this
7:32 stack allows you to actually apply a
7:35 login to lock down your admin pages for
7:39 total CMS this is important because you
7:42 don't want the average user just be able
7:44 to have their admin page open to the
7:46 world you want a password protect it and
7:49 lastly we have a select box what sell
7:51 out which allows us to actually define
7:53 predefined text snippets that our users
7:56 can select from when they add it to the
7:59 page so that does it everybody that is
8:02 the powerful total CMS and all of its
8:04 amazing features right now remember back
8:07 in video 1 we reviewed the base CMS
8:10 features of easy CMS and the core of
8:12 total CMS and in this video we reviewed
8:16 everything that sits on top of that that
8:18 is a part of total CMS as you see it is
8:21 a lot of stuff and I just skimmed the
8:24 surface I didn't really dive into many
8:26 of the settings right but you should
8:29 know the concepts now it's really simple
8:31 you just use them as any other stack to
8:34 build not only your admin area in your
8:36 cup but you're content areas as well and
8:38 they're all tied to a simple CMS ID and
8:43 it just works
8:46 just publish and go everything works
8:49 inside rapidweaver without question
8:52 right it is very very cool
8:55 so I hope you enjoy total CMS if you
8:58 haven't go and download the free 30-day
9:00 trial you can use it for 30 days all you
9:03 want okay so you have no excuse to play
9:07 with it I hope you enjoy it it's really
9:10 gonna revolutionize how you and your
9:12 customers administer your webpages so
9:15 thank you very much everybody
