Dan Alves posted a discussionCatalog XML import
Interested to hear from anyone currently using XML as their main input source into the website. We have a digital content storage product called Equella and I am thinking about storing the course catalog in there, where the Provost's office can update it easily. Then we would export to XML and pull that into the website to display course information. And, hopefully also do the same with the printed catalog with Indesign. Am I being way too ambitious here? Thanks! See More

Dan Alves posted a discussionAnyone using Datatel ActiveCampus for their Athletics site?
I'd like to connect briefly with some folks that use Datatel's ActiveCampus for their Athletics site. We are looking into having Datatel also do our Athletics site, but are hesitant because of potential lack of Athletics-specific functionality, specifically a new requirement for live stats in our conference.Any help greatly appreciated.DanSee More

Dan Alves replied to Justin Gatewood's discussion SharePoint CMS / Datatel Active Campus Portal?"So if people here are talking about ActiveAdmissions, they really mean a new full CMS implementation for the external website including Admissions? Or just the Admissions area?
And if they are saying ActiveCampus "Portal" that is an…"
