No More Taxonomy Tree Navigation: Semaphore for OpenText (RedDot) CMS Makes It Easy to Add Meta data Tags to Content

Open semantic platform company, Smartlogic, have produced a short video introducing the features of their Semaphore plug-in for OpenText's CMS (formerly RedDot CMS), which will make it easy for editors to add complex, taxonomy-driven meta data to their pages.

Smartlogic Semaphore is an open semantic platform that combines taxonomy management, automatic content classification and ontology-driven search and navigation enhancement. This can now be connected to the RedDot CMS using a native plug-in.

The video introduces Semaphore’s integration with the OpenText content management server and demonstrates three simple mechanisms for exposing a company’s defined taxonomy and enabling content authors and editors to tag a page of content with correct, standardised terms.

The simple, user-friendly method of content classification - without the need to browse an extensive tree structure of terms in a taxonomy - in turn makes the search and retrieval of accurate information faster and easier for the end user. You can see the OpenText CMS plug-in at work in the video demonstration.
