There is a subscription function in EPiServer CMS that allows visitors to the website to receive information about new and updated pages. Depending on whether you have a website with EPiServer multi-language support, you can select how the subscription dispatch is to be managed. This list can also include your own solutions for the subscription function.

The connectionStrings.config file contains sensitive information regarding the system that must not fall into unauthorized hands. One example is information to and from the database. To ensure that nobody can read the information, you must encrypt the file. Select the check box and save the system settings. Information on database connections, etc. is then encrypted.

EPiServer CMS supports management of contents in several languages/variations of the same page. The way of working with contents management then changes in Edit mode. To gain access to this support, globalization must be activated. This is done by selecting the Enable Globalization check box.

It is possible to show languages based upon the visitor’s browser settings. For this to work, the function must be activated. Do this by selecting the Detect language via browser’s language settings check box. Then the language that each visitor has chosen as their default language comes up in their own browser.

Select this check box if you do not want old versions of pages and files to be able to be deleted. When you select this check box, any values in the Maximum number of old versions of a page and Unlimited versions field in the Editing tab will be ignored.

The path to the CSS file that controls the appearance of the Editor. This should be the same as the one that controls the appearance of the website, in order to make life easier for the editors.

This applies to both the TinyMCE Editor and the EPiServer CMS 5 Editor.

In HTML, there are different ways of indicating a paragraph break. When you use the tag <P>, there will always be a gap between the rows to indicate the beginning of a new paragraph. If you do not want the extra gap to be visible when pressing ENTER, you can use the tag <DIV> instead. If you select the check box, <DIV> will be used instead of <P>. Note that the change will only apply to those pages created after this change has been made.

In this field, you can specify how many old versions of each page the editor can store. If you enter a value here, such as 3, three old versions will be stored in addition to the published version, i.e. four versions in all. When a fifth version is created, the first version of the stored page will disappear.

Select this check box if you want an unlimited amount of versions to be displayed in the version list.
