  • Patent number: 11783294
    Abstract: A content management system (CMS) for managing content types across multiple content spaces is provided, said CMS being configured to perform the following operations: receiving, through a template creation interface, a selection of content types of a source content space; generating a template having said selection of content types, and storing said template to a template library; receiving a command to install the template into a destination content space; responsive to said command, installing the content types of the template into the destination content space, and establishing a link between the destination content space and the template such that the installed content types are identified as being managed via the template.

  • Patent number: 11741184
    Abstract: A process for rendering a user interface for launching content for publication using a content management system (CMS), includes: providing, over a network, an editor application enabling editing of entities stored in the CMS; providing, over the network, a launch application, wherein execution of the launch application renders the user interface for launching content for publication, wherein the user interface includes a reference tree providing a hierarchical visualization of reference relationships amongst the entities; receiving selection of a group of entities for publishing; and generating, responsive to the selection, an application programming interface (API) call to the CMS to trigger initiation of a validation process to validate each entity, without requiring separate API calls for validating each entity; and, wherein the validation process, once initiated, proceeds automatically without requiring said separate API calls to separately initiate publication of each of the entities in the group of ent

  • Publication number: 20220292148
    Abstract: A process for rendering a user interface for launching content for publication using a content management system (CMS), includes: providing, over a network, an editor application associated with the CMS, enabling editing of entities stored in the CMS, the editing includes authoring fields for each entity; providing, over the network, a launch application, wherein execution of the launch application renders the user interface for launching content for publication; receiving selection of a group of entities, via the user interface, the selection is for publishing the group of entities; and generating, responsive to the selection, an API call to the CMS, that triggers initiation of a validation process to validate each entity in the group of entities, wherein the validation process is executed in a draft entity store of the CMS that is created for said validation without requiring separate API calls for validating each entity in the group of entities.

  • Patent number: 11409835
    Abstract: A system for launching content for publication using a content management system (CMS) is provided. The system includes a server of a plurality of servers that is configured for enabling editing of entities using an editor application associated with the CMS. The editing includes authoring fields for each entity. The system includes a server of the plurality of servers that is configured for receiving selection of a group of entities, via a launch interface of the CMS. The selection is for publishing the group of entities. The system includes a server of the plurality of servers that is configured for generating, responsive to the selection, an API call to the CMS. The API call is defined to trigger initiation of a validation process to validate each entity in the group of entities. The validation process is executed in a draft entity store of the CMS that is created for said validation without requiring separate API calls for validating each entity in the group of entities.
