Forum
Add a thread-based discussion forum to your site,
optionally in a full-sized window. With forums you
can:
• Under different categories (e.g., Motoring)
add multiple subforums (Classics,
Convertibles, Custom, etc.).
• Establish access control for users and
moderators (see p. 184).
• Set forum privacy as publicly readable or
private.
• Apply a theme (style) to the overall forum
object.
• Create, edit, and assign user ranks.
• Set user permissions.
Users can view number of topics, posts, and last post
submitted, and obviously post to the forum.
Hit
Counter
A straightforward count of the number of hits on the
current page (reset as needed). Different styles can be
adopted.
News
Add a news window onto your page. The object
supports RTF editing as well as paragraph styles,
hyperlinks, inserted media, and even HTML source
editing.
Poll
Set up an online poll to canvass web visitor's opinions.
Content
Management
System (CMS)
Lets the web developer add content to web pages
remotely without accessing and publishing via

categorized, created, edited, deleted and arranged into
categories. Site visitors can comment on and rate any
article.
Your CMS can be given its own colors.

Booker
Host the online booking of hotel rooms, meeting
rooms, rehearsal rooms, theater tickets, and more.
Book by the hour or by the day, as recurring bookings,
and with pricing options for different age groups.
