The Anatomy "Church Portal"
The Anatomy "Church Portal" is a key component of Anatomy that enables a church to develop an effective and powerful presence on the Internet. It gives church members the dynamic ability to interact with the church online. This is done by allowing church members to update their personal details, register for church courses and events, submit prayer requests, and much more.
The Church Portal has a database which constantly synchronises with your Anatomy database. This means that as church administrators enter data into Anatomy, the content of the church website is kept up to date in real time. As church members update their details and register for courses / events on the internet site, Anatomy updates automatically. This dramatically reduces database administration man-hours for the church, allowing members to administer their own details within a controlled, yet simple environment.
A "World Class" Administration Experience for Church Members
People have increasingly become accustomed to high levels of service, with innovative features that make the experience as simple and stress free as possible. Providing church members with the ability to update their own details, request prayer, register for courses, leave feedback or just pay an online visit, will bring your church in line with what your members generally experience (and expect) in their daily work environments. The Anatomy "Church Portal" also provides a powerful content management system, enabling the church to administrate other content on the website.
Typical functions include hosting a blog to communicate to your members in a way that they are familiar with, host photo galleries, publish news and much more. In addition, the church can "skin" the portal to look just the way it prefers, so that it effectively portrays the correct image of the church with appropriate imagery etc.

Currently, the portal has a number of exciting features that provide effective tools for developing and managing the church's Internet presence. The "good news" is that Anatomy constantly adds new features to the Portal, making the church's Internet presence exponentially more effective and more powerful than ever.
Current features include: Totally "skin-able", in terms of layout, colour, imagery and overall feel Content management allows the church to customise the structure of the site, add new pages, hide or remove pages, and determine what information is seen by the public and by registered users. This is all done from the comfort of your desk.
