Kete: 1.3
The major features -
Interface Translation:
- ability to customize the text in Kete's UI for a site without hand editing templates
- ability to create a translation of the text in Kete's UI in a new language from web interface (development mode only)
- ability for users to choose from available languages that they prefer by session or a persistent preference, easily switching between languages and have UI display appropriately
There are more major translation features under "Add-ons" at end of Milestone.
External Searches (great for integrating related sites)
- Contextual Search ala Paul Reynolds - item title as predefined search terms on an item's detail page of site administrator configured Search Sources, to display results from external search sources such as Digital New Zealand or other Kete sites
- Search Sources sidebar in search results page that displays matching results for user submitted search term(s) that displays external search results similar to Contextual Search
