I need to write a custom content editor windows application to allow content
publishing and management on a MCMServer.
This application should :

- Authenticate a user
- Allow a user to browse the pages of a site he has the right to edit the
content of
- Show a list of the placeholders included in the web page previously
selected
- Allow the user to insert new content / edit existing content of a
specified placeholder (maybe using a web service)

All this shuld be done using the DOM of the CMS...

Is all this stuff possible using the current version of MCMS?
And, if it is possible, wich are the classes involved in the process of
content uploading?

Thanks a lot for the support.
Have a nice day!

Hi Marco,

yes this can all be done using MCMS.
The classes to create, update and retrieve content from MCMS can be found in
the reference section of the MCMS documentation.

Cheers,
Stefan

The "Developer Reference" session appears to be really huge... Would you
be so kind to suggest me the core classes involved ... or at least a
good book to study how to perform the whole process?

Thanks

Hi Marco,

actually all these classes are somehow involved.
The core classes are
- Microsoft.ContentManagement.Publishing.Posting
- Microsoft.ContentManagement.Publishing.Channel
-
Microsoft.ContentManagement.Publishing.Extension.Placeholders.HtmlPlaceholde
r
-
Microsoft.ContentManagement.Publishing.Extension.Placeholders.ImagePlacehold
er
-
Microsoft.ContentManagement.Publishing.Extension.Placeholders.AttachmentPlac
eholder

It seems you are pretty new to MCMS. Then I would recommend the following
book to you that I coauthored. It focuses on beginners giving them the
chance to become an MCMS expert in very short time:
