Copydan
Four websites on one shared Umbraco foundation
Copydan wanted to bring together and modernise several digital solutions around Umbraco. Apply Agency set up a shared foundation for Copydan.dk, VerdensTV.dk, Copydan Arkiv and Nabolandskanalerne.dk. Each website keeps its own purpose and look, while technical components and editorial workflows are reused.
- Umbraco
- Multisite
- Component architecture
- Upgrades
Technical work and results
The table scrolls horizontally.
| Technical discipline | Delivered | Result |
|---|---|---|
| Multisite | Four digital solutions set up or further developed on the same Umbraco platform. | The websites can share a technical foundation without losing their individual identity. |
| Reuse | Shared components, modules and editorial workflows across the solutions. | Functionality can be built once and used in several places with less complexity. |
| Modernisation | Ongoing Umbraco upgrades, new content modules and improvements to navigation and editor tools. | The platform can be updated and extended without creating new standalone solutions. |
The result
Copydan now has one technical platform for four websites. Reusable components reduce maintenance, and ongoing upgrades can be carried out on a shared foundation rather than separately for each website.
