CMFPublicator is a tool that works on CMF, Plone 1, Plone 2 and Plone 2.1. It provides a mechanism that allow us to publish contents in a chaotic order in the portal, without a presentation order, in portlets or home boxes.

With it is possible manage complex homes, with banners, items with images or flash files, allowing open links in new browser windows and use another metadata that aren't catalogued yet. The users only need select the contents they want publish, throught dropdown boxes, and can setup totally these components.

Some CMFPublicator features:

• Allow the chaotic content presentation, as you want
• It works like a cache, the site will be more light because it doesn't do searchs in each request
• Easy to end user, but doesn't dispense the developer work
• Easy to configure the content presentation rules throught PMI
• Management by folder in all site tree
• Manage all the content types, until banners
• It has documentation and examples of use
• It works on CMF, Plone 1, Plone 2, Plone 2.1
