Smallbox CMS 5 is an important step forward in the evolution of content management software, and further entrenches Smallbox Software as a market leader in content management.

We believe our customers and the web development community-at-large will enjoy many benefits from using our content management software to develop creatively-driven and intuitively-designed sites that marry form and function.

Smallbox CMS 5 includes updates to a number of core system modules, including a new site management interface (SMI) that extends the ease-of-use customers have come to expect from Smallbox Software.

The new SMI moves the site management toolbar to the top of the browser screen, and functions much like standard offline editing applications. The SMI provides access points that highlight editable content. Site users can quickly and easily modify copy, images or video with the click of a mouse. Version 5 also adds powerful new publishing features that provide a greater degree of control over what content may be published and when.

More features and benefits of this code update include: a new file handling system and pre-rendered page caching for blazing fast page loads; individual page publishing controls; a direct edit interface that allow one-click access to edit site content; post-dating and auto-expire for control publishing of site content; enhanced SEO options with domain amalgamation which ensures search engines receive high-value unique content, and; a new FLV player for streaming video.

Smallbox CMS 5 builds on the company’s mission to apply the resources and innovation of the internet to help individuals and companies create and communicate.
