Site Merge generates repetitive pages within seconds
SiteMerge is a powerful system that enables you to generate repetitive web pages rapidly.
- It is only designed for experience computer/web developers.
- It is like a mailmerge, but for web pages.
- At the moment it is in Alpha release, so tread cautiously!
- It is only intended for dmClub dealers, who are developing pages for selling dmClub products.
- Dealers must apply to have this facility enabled
- This can handle multiple pages, and repetitions (e.g. rows of values) within the page
Example use
In this example you can upload a zip file (here's one we prepared earlier<<!!! insert download file>>, and see the system generate the files.
1 Prepare a zip file, containg your template file, and the data files (note that we allow a limited set of SQL in the template file).
2 Set the location of the zip file.
3 Push the upload file, which will start the upload, and then start the merge.
4 When the merge has finished, download the results (note that you will have the original input files, and the log file in the output file).
Tips and tricks
- Always keep your previous files, and keep a good journal of what you have done, with which version.
- In general prepare some test data, and a skelleton set of template(s) first, so that you can get the basics to work.
- If you have several page types, then you will have one zip and template for each page type.
- If you want support, then please have the last couple of versions that you were working with, and notes on what has changed, between working and not working.
FAQ's
Can I use this for other purposes?
Maybe, but if we found someone using it for dmClub alternatives (don't forget that you upload the files to our system), then we might reconsider your permission.
