Django Cms
django-cms is a content management system built on Django for creating and managing hierarchical pages and reusable content blocks. It functions as an enterprise framework and modular page builder for organizing website layouts and managing complex digital content.
The system features a frontend inline content editor that allows users to modify page titles and body content directly on the live site via an interactive toolbar. It provides a multilingual platform for translating pages and localized content across different languages, including built-in translation fallback support. Additionally, it supports multi-site administration, enabling the management of multiple separate website instances within a single installation to either share or isolate settings.
The platform covers a broad range of capabilities including hierarchical page organization for search engine optimized URLs, a plugin and placeholder system for reusable content components, and page-level permission control for restricting content visibility based on user roles. It also includes utilities for URL redirection management and content change previews.
