Add Sermon
Here a sample process to add a sermon with screenshots:
1. Login to our Web Based System
The User Management of the CMS allows the Site Administrator to determine the roles and permissions for users. Our permission based system allows control down to the granular level, such as read, write and publish privileges. For example, a person who enters new events may only be able to edit events but not able to publish these to the website. 
2. Select 'Sermons' under the Content Tab - Add a New Sermon
Content Contributors can choose between adding content such as pages, articles, sermons, blog posts, news or events to the website. The Content Contributors begin by inputting descriptive content using web-based forms. For example, the Content Contributor would be able to add sermon information (such as sermon title, relevant scripture, audio files, a description, documents and other content.). Forms use the necessary technology (AJAX, JavaScript, XML) to capture the data, validate accuracy, allow users to add new categories and other elements [if allowed by their authority].
Sermons added to the site can be part of a category, series or include meta-data that will help users who search for sermons on specific topics. Visitors to the site will be able to search a library central repository of sermons, pages, articles and news. Media will be searchable based upon the metadata input for each image, document, video or audio. 
The system allows authors to create, modify, remove and publish content on the website. Users will be able to add new content in a WYSIWYG (What You See is What You Get) Editor. What users see in their editing environment is what they will get when the content is published. Monk Development will consult with your team to determine the sophistication of the WYSIWYG editor to add variant content based on the ability of end users. Content Contributors will also be able to click an 'html' tab to edit the html source code, for those who are familiar with how to edit html.
3. 'Add Media' to Content
Next, the Content Contributor can add images, pdfs, docs, mp3s, video and other media associated with the sermon. These elements can be uploaded from the user's computer or selected from previously uploaded media. The CMS includes a robust media manager to upload and link to media files. MP3's that are uploaded through the system are automatically optimized at a 24mhz rate to be streamed online.
4. 'Add Content' – Published Status
Content such as Pages, Articles, Sermons, and Events have several options for their published status. These include:
- Published The item is published on the website.
- Draft The item is not published on the website, it is kept in a draft form. This also occurs when a Content Contributor does not have publishing rights. Only users with the appropriate permission level may publish the item.
- Feature The item is published as a feature article.
- Publish to Group Under 'More Options' items can be published to specific groups/categories. These items published to groups can also be featured.
