What is EPiServer Community

Hi all. Relate+ is just sample CMS templates and web controls,..etc for blogs, and social networking. So from a development point of view, can the same be said about Community? i.e. is it a set of controls for a similar purpose?

Thanks

Hi, take a look at the product relations overview: http://world.episerver.com/Download/Categories/Version-Relations/EPiServer-CMS-5-Relations/. Relate+ actually consists of two modules, EPiServer Mail and EPiServer Community + a product template package with the templates and web controls you mention.

Hi Fredrick and thank you for your answer.

That clears that up. The reason why I asked this was I am trying to manually port over some relate+ controls onto a standard EPiServer site. However, as these controls are Relate+ controls, they require Community modules to also be in place. i.e.) the community tab is required in Admin/Edit mode. It seems that its not just a case of importing templates and page types.

Does that mean I have to install Community onto an existing standard site, and then taking the Relate+ controls over?

Thank you

Correct :). You need EPiServer CMS and EPiServer Community, I also think a few modules have dependecies to EPiServer Mail as well.
