Introducing ERWD Custom Applications, Edd Read Web Design's new bespoke web-application framework...
ERWD is able to offer a scalable solutions for websites which require specialist functionality.
You may be interested in selling a service or product, providing a web-based application or
using a bespoke content-management solution.
Many of the recent ERWD sites (see the Portfolio) use
a set of modules that
are fully adaptable to any web application. They have been developed
in such a way that allows rapid portability to new projects with full
support for custom features.
The Solent Centre Resources Library has been built entirely using this technology - it provides a online file library where users can register, submit and search files. Automatic recommendations are made through keyword tagging and a message board has been included.
Standard features of ERWD Custom Applications include:
- The ERWD Site Manager - a powerful
content management package with WYSIWYG* (what-you-see-is-what-you-get) page editing.
- Multi-user access with varying permission levels. This system has been extensively tested
to ensure maximum security and safety.
- User account management - users can sign up (if allowed), modify their account settings or password
and even request password reminders if they need.
- Paypal, NoChex (and soon Barclays ePDQ) support - accept payments and process orders automatically
without the need for staff interaction.
If you're looking for a website with high-end requirements, contact ERWD to discuss your options.
* WYSIWYG editing features are powered by FCKEditor, which runs independently to the Site Manager. The licence fee for the Custom Applications suite covers the installation of the FCKEditor, but does not attempt to resell the FCKEditor, which is available for free from its website. It is possible, subject to compatibility, to request the installation of an alternative HTML editor when you purchase a licence to use the Custom Applications suite. ERWD would make it clear that a licence to use the Custom Applications suite is entirely independent to the licence required to use the HTML editor within it.
