Web content management system
A web content management system (WCMS or Web CMS) is content management system (CMS) software, usually implemented as a Web application, for creating and managing HTML content. It is used to manage and control a large, dynamic collection of Web material (HTML documents and their associated images). A WCMS facilitates content creation, content control, editing, and many essential Web maintenance functions.
Usually the software provides authoring (and other) tools designed to allow users with little or no knowledge of programming languages or markup languages to create and manage content with relative ease of use.

Spruced-up Zimplit CMS 1.1: One Small Step Forward
- Website Menu Reordering: Users can now drag and drop any page to where they want. This should be helpful when users want to change website navigational items, let’s say.
- Theme Picker: Yes, they’re still doing a themed approach to website design. The benefit: no more downloading and uploading of theme package from Zimplit’s site. Just log in to your website, pick any theme and it will be downloaded instantly. Less clicking is almost always a good idea.
- Gallery Thumbnails: This new functionality allows users to see some media files in a “click and zoom” fashion. On top of that, there’s also the yummy automatic resizing function. While we’re not quite sure about what Zimplit means by “It will make your website smaller and quicker,” digital asset management (in some shape or form) is always a welcome functionality in any Web CMS.
- Editor Location Changer: In “one step,” developers can now make their own editors with their own functionality and change editor skin or add their own.
