Welcome to the documentation for EntryScape¶
This documentation is intended primarily as a guide for end users.

EntryScape consists of different application modules that can be used together or separately:
Catalog¶

Terms¶

Workbench¶
Manage and collaborate on entities using linked data. Describe and enrich your entities with metadata.
Registry¶

Blocks¶
Embed information stored in EntryScape into web pages or CMS using shortcodes. For example, build a data portal on a standard web page with or without a CMS using metadata from EntryScape. Blocks works with all forms of static pages and dynamic pages via CMS such as WordPress, SiteVision, EpiServer, Drupal and others. Learn more about Blocks.

User support via EntryScape Community¶
The EntryScape Community user and support forum provides help and support for your questions from users and MetaSolutions, the main developer of EntryScape. These questions and answers in turn lead to improvements in the open user documentation.
Please note that the EntryScape Community is a community-based forum. Anyone can get answers from the community for free. For example, if you have EntryScape Free or EntryScape Starter, you will need a support contract that includes getting answers from MetaSolutions on the forum.
