Content Management

Dialogs includes the most flexible content management around.

Content management web-based forms allow our agency partner and their client to edit content, schedule events, etc. without breaking a very complex design. The “News” section includes document management for downloadable PDFs of news stories.

Design Accuracy

Where designers don't fear programmers ... and vice versa.

Perhaps the most notable aspect of this project is the accurate implementation of an intricate design, highlighting the design flexibility of Dialogs. There are dozens of variations to layouts and backgrounds that site editors can choose from.

Social Networking

Successful sites capitalize on current social networking outlets.

A custom blog keeps people current, while a custom forum opens up a conversation between organizers and volunteers. The public can sign up for enewsletters or an RSS feed of news stories.

Flash and Rich Media

Bean counters no longer frown on Flash and other rich media.

Flash elements add personality and interest. The home page Flash tracks each session user so they aren’t forced to watch the intro every time they return to the home page.

eCommerce Solutions

People like buying via ecommerce. Selling can be just as fun.

Upcoming events are organized with a calendar, and viewers can reserve their tickets online. Viewers can also make donations through an ecommerce integration with Google Checkout.

Tech Documentation

Dialogs means never having to ask, "How did we get here?"

This site has the electronic documentation of the development process permanently tied to the site in Capture. Standard documentation of database structure and description of the code base is available with all Dialogs licenses.

Professional Services

Dialogs Professional Services: a solid company stands behind Dialogs.

Dialogs Professional Serivces provided extensive technical assistance to the implementation of this project.

REAL School Gardens

Complexity - 5 out of 10

REAL School Gardens

Beautiful illustrations communicate the importance of outdoor learning centers.

You know what happens when you plant a seed – a lovely plant grows in return. In the case of REAL School Gardens, a planted seed yields much more than a plant. A school garden grows curiosity, teaching opportunities, nurturing skills and confidence. REAL School Gardens empowers people to improve their communities by building outdoor “classroom” gardens at schools. Their website needed to be a place for people to gather and share thoughts and plans. Hopefully children and their teachers will realize life’s a journey, so stop and plant the roses or cucumbers or carrots along the way. SILVER NATIONAL ADDY AWARD WINNER.
