The data in an OpenWGA content store is organized in documents that form some kind of hierarchy. In content management projects this hierarchy often resembles the logical hierarchy of webpages whose data is to be published. However it is up to the author of this content how his documents are organized in this hierarchy.
This hierarchy and the data it contains it built up by three types of documents:
- Website areas divide the data of an OpenWGA content store up into separate areas. Each one represents a root for a page hierarchy
- Struct entries are the nodes in the hierarchy. They build the hierarchical organisation by having exactly one parent entry (either another struct entry or a web area) and a custom number of child struct entries.
- Content documents finally contain the actual content data. Each content document is assigned to a single struct entry which defines it hierarchical position. There however may be various content documents of differing languages and versions on each struct entry.
A struct entry and its content documents form a logical unit as they define the data that is available for a specific hierarchy node. This unit is called a page on OpenWGA as it therefor represents a single webpage in web content management.
