New Product - Page Manager Pro

If you have a large site hierarchy with hundreds or thousands of pages you may find that the built in PageTree.aspx included in mojoPortal becomes unwieldy, Page Manager Pro is a drop in replacement for PageTree.aspx designed to address that problem with an easier drag and drop solution for moving pages around in the site hierarchy. Page Manager Pro is available now starting at $49 for a Single Installation License.

Mobile Kit Pro 2.0 Released

Mobile Kit Pro version 2.0 has been released and is a free update for customers who have already purchased it. This release adds support for un-clickable menu items that just expand to show child pages, and includes a new skin designed by our friends at i7MEDIA. With more and more people accessing your site with their smart phones it is becoming more important to provide a good experience on the small screen, and Mobile Kit Pro makes it easy. No matter how large your site hierarchy is, our Mobile Menu makes it easy for phone users to navigate your site.
