Innovative content management solution for FirstSpirit

2 min read

For implementing complex corporate portals, the content management system FirstSpirit has proven itself many times over. Such projects often require the integration of interactive content and external applications. These include faceted job boards, registration forms or ordering processes. As a long-standing "Advanced" partner of CMS manufacturer e-Spirit, interactive tools developed an innovative FirstSpirit solution for integrating dynamic applications.

Integration of dynamic applications

FirstSpirit stands out for its simple, modular structure via input areas and paragraph templates. Editorial teams are used to being able to edit and control all structures and content of the website directly in the CMS - even when complex applications need to be integrated. From a technical perspective, it is desirable to develop applications independently of FirstSpirit. Neither was possible with the previously established Page Controller approach.

Through our innovative solution, editorial teams can now effortlessly and intuitively integrate external web applications such as widgets or search applications and edit them directly in the CMS. Our Dynamic Content Controller significantly extends FirstSpirit's feature set – an innovation our customers benefit from in their projects. 

Dynamic Content Controller with FS-View-Control

The Dynamic Content Controller enables, for the first time, seamless integration of dynamic applications in FirstSpirit while meeting the high demands of editorial and technical teams alike. With our solution, content managers can place dynamic applications in FirstSpirit like normal paragraph templates anywhere on a page and adjust them conveniently and intuitively. FirstSpirit's functionality thus remains seamlessly preserved for the editorial team.

Optimal solution for editorial and technical teams

The innovative architecture simplifies application development. The Dynamic Content Controller processes all requests and controls all web applications on the portal. This lets us develop, test and improve applications independently of FirstSpirit. We then integrate the applications into the CMS via a proven solution.

Personalised content

From editorial content through news to search results, the Dynamic Content Controller gives the customer personalised content. Content is delivered by country, language and target group, and can be extended with user-related customer journey data.
