About

Unwrong have been providing Flash/Flex and ASP.NET development services since 2005. We noticed early on that we could not find any adequate and affordable third-party content management solutions for Flash sites. Most were geared towards WYSIWYG HTML editors that didn’t translate well to Flash and the existing niche Flash-oriented solutions had a fairly narrow feature set and could only target Flash sites. Looking beyond those we found enterprise scale solutions to be prohibitively priced. The projects we were working on had budgets that were oriented around creative and bespoke development costs, leaving little room for buying additional expensive software licenses.

To solve this problem we developed our own ASP.NET web CMS solution. This has since proven to be a solid and versatile foundation for many projects.

Features

Actionscript API

Our simple but powerful open source Actionscript library enables swift development of Flash sites.

XSLT Templates

Pages are published using XSLT transforms. We have an extensive library of open source XSLT templates that enable many common scenarios with minimal coding required.

Full Content Management

Images, text, video, dynamic menus.

File Management

Upload and manage files in a familiar files/folders interface.

Google Content Indexing and HTML Versions

Google can crawl the site content and index it via automatically generated HTML versions of Flash pages.

Google Sitemaps Support

An easy way for Google to discover pages within the site.

Google Analytics Support

Enables tracking of all page views.

RSS News Feeds

A site may have one or more RSS news feeds.

Private Areas

User Access Control

Administrators can add/edit/delete users granting them appropriate permissions for access to CMS features such as publishing.

Publisher Role

Only users in the Publisher role are able to publish, delete or rename pages and folders within the system. This allows for one or more individuals in the Publisher role to moderate all content and protect the structural integrity of the website.

Editor Role

Editors are able to create pages and components, but are not able to accidentally delete pages or folders that already exist in the system.

Internationalisation

The ability to add multiple language versions to your site.
