OpenCms 9.5.1 documentation (for local installation)

The documentation aims to help developers from getting started with OpenCms up to getting familiar with advanced development topics regarding OpenCms. Some topics are also interesting for content managers, but most of the documentation is focused on template development, content design, configuration options and user management.

The documentation is found online at http://documentation.opencms.org/opencms-documentation/. So you only need to download the documentation modules in case you want to try the interactive examples from the documentation.

To install the documentation you need OpenCms 9.5 or later.

To install the installation:

  • Import the module com.alkacon.opencms.documentation (the site does not matter)

Download OpenCms

  • OpenCms 17 gives content managers the new app "Date search" to find content that has been changed in a certain time range. The "Websites" app allows to easily export the content of a complete site for archiving. An option has been added to hide "sensitive" content in the Offline project. The default Mercury template has been further improved, e.g. with SEO optimized job postings, a "spacer" function and marker clusters for maps. OpenCms 17 has also been tested and certified using Java 17 LTS and 21 LTS.
