Signifikant version 4.5 has been released this summer with improved and new exciting features
What’s New:
New login page design options: Login page can now be configured with a background image. A total of three options are possible:
- Centered login
- Right side adjusted login
- Classic login with no image
Database: The Signifikant platform has its own database which contains the published information, handles access rights, allows synchronization with offline installations etc.
In addition to improving optimizations whne having large databases, we have also introduced working sets in order to create a sub-set of the total data to reduce loading times of storages.
- Catalogues which has any of the defined specifications and all their related content will be the defined working set
Templates for catalogues: It is now possible to define a template for new catalogues through configuration. When new catalogues are created a set of nodes will be generated automatically in the catalogue.
Fixes:
The latest version contains bug fixes and performance improvements
Improvements:
Search functionality for end user: Signifikant’s platform’s already strong search functionality has been further improved to allow the end customer to quickly find the product through better navigation and facet based search. (Facets are a way to add specific, relevant options to your search results pages or category listings)
- Define custom categories apart from the standard part, catalogue, document etc
- Navigate to search result by pressing enter
- Allow to select specifications as facets
- Show facets as columns in search result
- Allow to display if catalogue has content already in search result
- Filter on facets
Search functionality for Editor in Manager: Now the Editor has the possibility to search for presentations. It is possible to navigate to the presentation or the storage with the presentation selected.
Documents: In the earlier versions documents could be stored in multiple languages and then referred to and in the catalogues. We have now enabled documents as references to external documents using URL. The documents may still handle different languages, have metadata for search and presentation etc.
