The winner of the first ever Kentico Site of the Year Award is an amazing mix of functionality, usability, beautiful design and bang for your buck, and the fact that the Chicago Zoological Society site topped out both Best Nonprofit Organization Site and Best Graphic Design says a lot for the work of Designkitchen, the group behind it.

It’s very rare that an interactive agency is able to produce work within the typically tight budgets and timeframes that come with Nonprofit Organizations, but even rarer still that the work produced is stunning enough to win design awards.

Congratulations to Designkitchen on a great site, an awesome execution, and on winning the inaugral Kentico Site of the Year.

Most people don’t realise that the Kentico repeater web part can be nested to satisfy complex requirements. In his latest Tips and Tricks, Matt takes us through what this means and how it works.

So you don’t like the way one of the web parts in Kentico works, and you can’t find something better? Les Warren demonstrates how easy it can be to hack up the existing document types of Kentico, and with a little creativity create new hybrids from existing functionality.

[Press Release] Three months ago, Kentico Software promised to plant a tree for every bug in Kentico CMS 4.1 reported by their clients and to fix all such bugs within 7 business days. Although clients reported only 60 bugs in the product, company employees and management planted almost 100 of them. The tree species and the place for planting them were chosen by the Czech Environmental Partnership Foundation (NGO). Each tree was tagged with a label showing the name of the client who reported the bug.
