Case study: East European Performing Arts Platform
September 5, 2011 2 Comments
The eepap.org service has been made by eo Networks S.A. for the Adam Mickiewicz Institute (Instytut Adama Mickiewicza) – ‘a state cultural institution whose task is to promote Polish culture around the world and actively participate in international cultural exchange’. The aim of the project was to create the platform for East European artists and institutions to share the information and cooperate in form of arts network. The core of the site is presentation of artists, events and cultural institutions.
Interesting features that we added to standard Liferay 6.0.3 CE are:
- Event Calendar (based on Web Content Structure and modified Asset Publisher)
- Advanced Journal Search so you can easily find events or artists
- Ability to attach files in web form portlet
The event structure enables editors to set the start and end date of events, such as theatre premiere, show, workshops etc. After that Event Calendar portlet will display current month and will mark days when events take place – start, end and all days in between.
Great project.
PS
It would be nice to have user fierndly URL’s
But there are Friendly URL’s. Not so pretty like those made by wordpress but still they are Friendly URL Tomasz 🙂
