Alkacon Software is about to release a series of additional open source modules for OpenCms.
The first release in this series is the OpenCms Newsletter Module, which is available for immediate download from alkacon.com.
Following in the next weeks will be OpenCms modules for RSS feed generation, Calendar creation, Page counters and more.
The modules released in this series will be called the
Alkacon OpenCms Add-On Module Package (Alkacon OAMP). They will be available with full source code and documentation.
Alexander Kandzior, CEO of Alkacon Software:
"We have developed a number of additional functionalities for OpenCms in our customer projects. We will now release a good part of these as Open Source modules, in the hope that they will be useful for others. These modules will not be part of the OpenCms core distribution, because we don't want to bloat the OpenCms core with too many optional features. However, we want to offer a free, open source solution to the OpenCms community for some often requested enhancements."
All Alkacon OAMP modules will be released as full Open Source under the GNU GPL version 3. The source code of the modules is freely available in the public CVS of cvs.opencms.org.
OpenCms 18 adds a new "Place element" mode in the page editor that allows precise element placement as an alternative to drag & drop. Reused content is now clearly marked. Automatic typographical correction of quotation marks has been added to all of the editors. “Dead links” in content that is entered in a WYSIWYG editor are now automatically disabled. Our Mercury template includes several new features, such as setting different image formats for mobile and desktop and many more.

The Alkacon OpenCms Enterprise Extensions (also called OCEE) are a commercial extension for OpenCms. Alkacon OCEE adds features to OpenCms that are often required for running OpenCms in a medium or large Enterprise, where data consistency, security and failover are highly important.
