Web 2.0 Modules

Grouptree web 2.0 modules help users communicate and collaborate with each other through easy to use tools, these modules enable non administrators to contribute information through public facing functionality that interfaces with the administration application.

Interact Module

The interact module provides non administrators with controlled publishing rights enabling them to contribute to a site. Nominated users can interface with and submit information to designated categories or pages.

Blogs

Grouptree blogs enable administrators to set up blogs for individuals or groups within the site. Blogs are typically used for commenting on particular subjects or events and include text, images, and links. A moderator facility is available to administrators to view and approve any contributions before they are published to a blog.

Wiki

The Wiki module enables the creation of pages that can then be contributed to by other users. Wikis can be accessible to all users or selected users. The Wiki module provides a simple and effective solution to creating pages collaboratively, pages are edited in place using simple plain text editing tools to input content and create links.

When a user contributes to a Wiki there is the facility for them to attach comments explaining any additions or amends that they have made to the page, if the Wiki requires user registration it is possible to see who has made the contributions. Each Wiki has version control so the page can be reverted back to a previous contribution undoing any more recent amends.

Content Tagging

Content Tagging provides the ability to draw faceted navigation results or other navigation types such as cloud tags. Faceted classification is used in search systems to enable a user to navigate information along multiple paths corresponding to different orderings of the facet. This contrasts with traditional taxonomy in which the hierarchy of categories is fixed and unchanging. Content tagging allows users to find information rapidly without following the usual structured navigation paths, visitors to the site can tag information so the site taxonomy is generated via user interaction.
