MemberGate Content Publisher v2.0 fully automates the content creation and management process, and allows non-technical users to create, publish and manage web content - without having to know HTML, FTP, ODBC, ASP, XML or any special scripting language or tool.

With MemberGate you get the look and feel of a custom designed Top Ten '4th generation' web site, without the need to have an in-house technical team devoted to web page creation and management.

Simplified Web Page Creation
Web page creation is simplified using a 'fill in the blank' form. Content providers type or paste in their material and MemberGate does the rest.

Content providers are not burdened by layout and formatting issues, as MemberGate automatically formats and builds all pages (using the rules you set). The same is true with images and graphics associated with pages - MemberGate automatically uploads the images and places them in the proper location on the pages.

And of course, all pages can be quickly called up for editing and no new content pages are published without department manager review and approval.

Pages can even be entered with a designated release date, allowing pages to be created and held until a future date.

Consistent Look and Feel
The rules based page layout system means that all pages on your web site have a consistent design. Navigation menus, page layouts, fonts, colors, logos - are all consistent throughout the site, yet can be changed almost instantly by altering the master site template.

This consistent look and feel makes your site easy for visitors to navigate, and provides the professional touch they expect to see.

Automatic Synchronizing of Pages, Portals, Menus
MemberGate fully automates the synchronization of content pages, department pages, portal pages, archive pages, navigation menus and buttons, and the search engine.

When content pages are added, edited or deleted, MemberGate automatically updates portal and department pages, teaser copy and links, images, navigation menus, and more so that your site is always up to date and synchronized with current content.

Controlled Access
With MemberGate, you decide who has the power to do what on your web site. With four different levels of privilege, based on a user's role and responsibility, you can control who has the ability to make specific changes on your site. This means you can set up content providers who can only add content within a certain department, and that content becomes active only after it is reviewed and approved by the department manager.

And you can set up department managers that can approve content within one or multiple departments (your choice). You also can decide who has access to 60+ reports that MemberGate provides.

Members Only and By Subscription
With MemberGate, you can instantly build a members- only or subscription area of your web site, where entry is limited to those you have set up as members.

If you choose to charge a membership or subscription fee, MemberGate can automate the entire process, from signing up new members, processing credit card charges, assigning user names and passwords, sending out a welcome email - even sending membership renewal notices.

MemberGate is the 'gatekeeper' that controls access to the members-only area and allows only current members to view the content. When non-members attempt to access the member area, they see a message advising that access is 'by subscription' or 'members only' and then shown how to join (if you choose).

MemberGate automatically detects password sharing and other potential security problems, and instantly locks out member accounts involved in suspicious activity.

Comprehensive Site Reports
MemberGate provides over 60 customizable reports that allow you to see at an instant complete site status, member rosters, activity reports, credit card charges, daily, weekly, and monthly transaction logs, and much more.

Access to reports is controlled by the privilege levels you set, and in most cases reports can be seen only by top management levels.

Discussion Groups, Forums, Classified Ads
With MemberGate, you can set up an unlimited number of discussion groups, forums, or classified ad areas in your web site.

Using a simple 'fill in the blanks' form, you can create a new forum in seconds, and set the rules followed by users. (Yes, MemberGate does include a 'dirty word' filter to prevent inappropriate posts.)

Browser-Based Site Management
All MemberGate features are accessed through standard web browsers (either Internet Explorer or Netscape Navigator) which means no special software need be deployed to users and content providers. And because content providers and managers already know how to use a web browser, no special training is required.

Simplified Deployment
With MemberGate, you won't need any special hardware or software to publish and manage your web site on the internet. The only hosting requirement is a Windows NT hosting service with Cold Fusion 4.5. You'll find hundreds of hosting options on the net, or if you choose, you can host in-house on your own server.

MemberGate - The Sensible Solution
With MemberGate you get the advantage of having a web site with a professional look and feel, but without the cost and overhead of an in-house technical staff to support the site.

MemberGate gives you the flexibility to have the site you want, and to put it online in a matter of hours.
