PortalApp is a versatile, ready-to-run, open source Web application (portal software) that you download & configure. All site content, layout, structure and design is managed from a browser-based control panel. This means the site is easily maintained by you or your clients. The Web-based Administration Control Panel (ACP) is used to initially configure the design, layout, categories and sections. Later, use the ACP to populate and manage site content. This means the site is easily maintained by you, clients or non-technical personnel.

Manage Content

The built-in visual content editor allows non-technical contributors to easily create and update site content. Advanced features enable administrators to define custom fields and approval controls to ensure that site content is relevant and accurate.

A site's structure consists of the menus, layout, content and how they all work together. PortalApp includes a Web-based management tool that allows administrators to add categories or sections that automatically generate the site navigation.

PortalApp was built with the designer in mind. PortalApp gives template authors control over look and feel and allows this to be enforced through the use of industry standard CSS stylesheets. This allows a separation of design from content, structure and function.

PortalApp comes complete with over 30 modules that address more than 90% of common Website requirements including community and e-commerce functions. These features provide functionality that developers can modify using the included source code.

PortalApp is one of the most popular open source portal and content management systems (CMS) available today. It has been downloaded over 200,000 users since 2002, and is in use at several Fortune 500 companies and thousands of small businesses.

Companies use PortalApp to deploy sites that manage content, users, membership, articles, events, news, links, listings, forums, files, advertising, images, faq's, downloads, surveys, e-commerce and other types of content. The full source code is provided, so functionality and design is 100% customizable.
