I've been working on a really tricky CMS problem recently: basically if
you run a large mobile portal you end up have to support a wide range of
mobile phones (100+) and not all pages will work on all phones. For
some, this is simply a case of the content not being appropriate, i.e.
Club Nokia on a Motorola phone, some it relates to downloading paid for
content that doesn't work on your phone (ringtones, java games), or may
even be dependant on multimedia features on the phone (i.e. colour).
Basicaly you end up with a massive range of different sitemaps - almost
one for each phone - whereas what you really want is a single sitemap
and rules to define what pages are shown to different groups of phones.
Now - I've stated the requirement, which is half the battle - but as you
know I am a great fan of using CMSs "out of the box" with as little
customisation as possible, so what I'm wondering is
a) Does anyone know of a commercial CMS that can do this? (Vendors, this
is not an invitation to spam me - if you system does it, then post to
the list the name of an example site that is using your CMS out of the
box for this application).
b) Is there another way to approach this problem that results in a
solution without massive customisation to the CMS?
Cheers,
Tom.
