Schools - Features of Faithwebsites

Content Management Systems (CMS) have become a standard component of church Web sites. With an effective CMS, your church will be able to fully maintain every aspect of its Web site without any special hardware, software or training.

NAVIGATION BUILDER

At Faithwebsites, we have revolutionized Content Management Systems with our navigation builder. Using a simple graphical interface, you can fully maintain your entire Web site map. The navigation builder allows you to add, edit and delete pages. With it, you will be able to activate and temporarily deactivate pages. Best of all, you will no longer need to worry about any "dead links" on your Web site. It is all completely automated.

UNLIMITED SITE ADMINISTRATORS

With Faithwebsites, you will be able to maintain complete control of your Web site while sharing the maintenance responsibilities. As a Primary Site Administrator, you will be able to add any number of site managers and can dictate their precise permissions.

FACULTY PAGES

Faculty web pages are a great way for parents to stay connected to what is going on in their child's classroom. With Faithwebsites, it is simple for your faculty members to set up and maintain an effective site. In less than an hour, they will be completely self-sufficient with their new faculty webpage. IT personnel love this module because with one simple upload, the system will automatically setup each of the faculty sites and send out an email to each staff member with their logon information.

AUDIO/VIDEO

With more and more internet users having high speed internet, audio and/or video is a great way to engage your web site visitors. With Faithwebsites, you can upload a video to a free video service like Google Video, YouTube, GodTube or GospelTube. Once your video is uploaded, they will convert it to a universal Flash file. Faithwebsites makes it easy to embed that video directly on any web page.

LINKED CALENDARS

School calendars are a vital component of any district's communication. With Faithwebsites, you can add as many calendars as you like, wherever you want them. After inserting your calendars, you can link them together so that events that are added to an individual calendar can also appear on a main district calendar. If you can think of an application, this calendar probably already has it!

PHOTO GALLERIES/SLIDE SHOWS

From classroom projects to school-wide functions, posting pictures on the Web is always a hit. With Faithwebsites, getting the pictures on-line has never been easier. Staff will be able to upload pictures directly from their digital camera to the Web site without having to first manipulate the picture. The CMS will automatically resize and optimize the photos for you. Best of all, this tool has no restrictions. You can add unlimited photo galleries, albums and photos to your site. Our slide show tool is a big hit for use on home pages - simply upload the photos and they automatically get put into an eye-catching slide show!

SCRIP/TRIP ORDER FORM

Does your school take part in the SCRIP/TRIP fundraising program? If so, then just simply plug in your vendors and the amounts to collect orders on your web site. Orders are emailed to your SCRIP/TRIP coordinator instantly.

I-FORM / SURVEY BUILDER

Does your Web site need to be more interactive and useful? With Faithwebsites' I-form builder, you will be able to create on-line forms and surveys in minutes. When users fill out these forms, you can set up email notifications and capture all data in a back-end database. The I-form builder even includes all the tools you will need to analyze and summarize this data.

USER-SIDE SECURITY

Does your district want to create a section on your site that is only accessible to your parents, alumni or some other group? Faithwebsites will allow you to dictate which pages on your site need to be password protected. Our experience with Web site security will prove to be valuable.

COMPLETELY CUSTOMIZABLE

At Faithwebsites, we have an extensive list of tools. However, if you are looking for a feature that has not been mentioned, be sure to contact us. Most likely, we have already developed something similar to your need. If not, we can certainly develop a tool to your specifications!
