managing chaos: merging 120 sites into a single plone multisite solution
DESCRIPTION
Discover how the Penn State College of Liberal Arts moved over 120 separate websites running on their own Plone installation into a single system utilizing Lineage in less than 90 days. The new system retains the independent permissions and workflows each site needed to have. This talk will discuss the reasons for the consolidation and why the new system is more efficient and easier to navigate for administrators.TRANSCRIPT
