New User Level Names
Marqui software was formerly known as Maestro CMS, and user levels were named in keeping with the
music theme: Writer, Composer, and Maestro. However, with the name change of the s
oftware (and
company) from Maestro to Marqui this naming convention no longer made sense.
User level names have been changed to more closely reflect the functions performed by users at each
level:
New User Level Name for 5.0
Former User Level Name
Writer
Writer
Editor
Composer
Publisher
Maestro
Admin
Admin
The balance of this document refers to user levels by their new names.

Apply CSS Styles
Now users can apply CSS styles to content as they type. A new button
can be enabled
on the Editor
Toolbar
that
allows all levels of us
ers to select a CSS class from a drop
-
down list and apply it to selected
text.
This gives users the flexibility to apply
two or more
formatting styles to text
in a single content box
,
and offers
the convenience of seeing formatting changes applied instant
ly.

Implement
ation
As with all Toolbar functions, this feature is enabled or disabled in a template by the site administrator.
T
he
Apply
Style
button is turned on
and
configured using
all three
of
the following
new attributes:
CLASS=“
IncludedCSS
”
:
This attribute and specifier must be added to the
LINK
tag that calls the
CSS file in your template. If your published page calls multiple CSS files, it can be inserted in one or
more of the
LINK
tags
.
Note:
To add the
Apply CSS
Style
option to the Ed
itor Toolbar, the CSS
definition file cannot be referenced via the @import command; CSS classes must be read directly in
the page or referenced via the
LINK
tag.
CSSSOURCES
:
The attribute
CSSSOURCES
must also be used
in conjunction with
ALLOWFORMA
T
in a
W
XGET
tag to enable the
Apply CSS
Style
option
.
When used without a
specifier
(e.g.
, CSSSOURCES=” “), the drop
-
down list is populated by every CSS declaration
available to the published page
. This
has the potential to return
a very long list, so there
are
two
filtering methods you can use
. Us
ing
the
CSSSOURCES
attribute with a CSS fi
le name, or list of file
names (e.g., CSSSOURCES=”fonts.css, settings.css”), p
opulate
s
the
drop
-
down list with every CSS
s
tyle in the specified file(s). Multiple file names m
ust be delimited with a comma (,).
Note
: The
Apply
CSS
Style
button is not automatically turned on when you use ALLOWFORMAT=”ALL”. The
CSSSOURCES attribute must be present to enable the functionality.
CSSCLASSES
:
This attribute must
also
be used in con
junction with CSSSOURCES to sp
ecify
the
list of CSS styles
displayed
in the
Apply Style
drop
-
down box.
If you want
to make
all classes in the
CSS file
available to users
, use the specifier
“A
ll”
. To display a subset of the available classes,
specify a li
st (e.g.,
CSSCLASSES=”codesample, footer, date, emphasis”
)
. Multiple
classes
must be
delimited with a comma (,).
Note:
T
he “all,
-
style1,
-
style2” syntax that is allowed with the
ALLOWFORMAT
attribute
cannot be applied to
CSSCLASSES
.
S
ample Code
The fol
lowing code in your template adds the
Apply Style
option
to an Editor Toolbar. There are two
steps required:
1.
Insert between the opening and closing
HEAD tag
s
:
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" class="IncludedCSS"
HREF="/
your_location
/
your_
stylesheet.c
ss">
Where the HREF attribute contains the relative path to the CSS Style Sheet used for your account.
2.
Add the ALLOWFORMAT, CSSSOURCES and CSSCLASSES attributes to any WXGET tag for
which you want to enable an Editor Toolbar that includes the
Apply Styles
feature.
<wxget name="CONTENT_1" titl
e="Page Content:" maxlength="20
00
0"
allowformat="ALL" rows="35"
CSSSOURCES="yes" CSSCLASSES="ALL" ></wxget>

The above code sample results in the
Apply Styles
drop
-
down list being populated by every CSS
class available t
o the published page. To filter the
results displayed in the drop
-
down list, follow the
implementation instructions provided
above
.
New Password Rules
Marqui administrators now have the ability to increase the complexity of user
passwords, thus increa
sing
the security of client data.
Administrators can
use new settings on the
Settings
| Global Settings
screen to
apply any or all of six
new rules to the creation of login passwords.

forced
password reset takes place
automatically,
instructing users
at their next login
to
modify
their pa
sswords
to
meet the new requirements.
Redesigned Subscriber, Forms and Fields Functionality
The Subscriber module has been changed substantially to enable better tracking of subscriber
information and feedback, and to improve compatibility between subscri
ber databases in different
applications. Major changes in the Subscriber module include:
Redesigned forms and fields data storage.
Introduction of standard and custom attributes.
Replacement of the User ID instead of the
email
address as the unique identif
ier for subscriber
records.
Ability to store all completed forms from a single subscriber as a single entity in his or her subscriber
record
Ability to specify which fields in a form are linked to subscriber attributes so that content in a
subscriber’s rec
ord is automatically updated when a form is submitted.
Redesigned Forms & Fields Storage
The storage of forms, fields and responses has been completely redesigned and improved. The most
important difference is that in previous releases, fields were create
d as distinct entities and then linked to
forms as required. The result was that a site subscriber would reply to a form as a whole, but the
response to each question was stored as a separate piece of information in his or her subscriber record.
Also, if
a subscriber responded to
two
form
s
and the same field was used in each form, only the most
Marqui 5.0
Technical Release Notes

recent response
to the field
was kept. This meant it was not possible to review a subscriber’s response in
context of the form as a whole, nor could you track or
compare responses over time.
In Version 5.0,
forms
are
now stored as a
complete, single
entity.
Fields in a form can be linked to
attributes
in the subscriber record, so that when appropriate, a subscriber’s response to a
form
field can
automatically o
verwrite the contents of the linked
attribute
in the subscriber’s record. This means that
e
very time a subscriber completes a form:
The responses are recorded in the subscriber record as a single data set, and
The responses to
linked
fields automatically
update the appropriate fields in the subscriber record.
This
allows
you to track multiple responses by a subscriber to the same form (or multiple forms) and
compare responses in a single report. Responses from multiple subscribers can be compared by
exp
orting the information.
Fields are now created for each form and stored as part of the form. When a field is created, it can be
designated as a ‘Reusable’ field, which means it populates a list of reusable fields that can be copied for
reuse into other
forms.
All attribute fields in a subscriber record store one set of data per field, which means that every time a
form field is linked to an attribute, the content provided by the subscriber automatically overwrites the
existing data.
Subscriber record
s
now
contain a section called “Subscriber Form Responses”, where each form
completed by an individual subscriber is stored as a complete entity. Multiple forms are kept, as well as
multiple instances of the same form.
New Subscriber Record Features
Subsc
riber records are now created by default with a set of standard data fields called attributes. These
are used for subscriber identification, maintaining contact and basic demographics. A standard set of
attributes allows for more efficient organization a
nd tracking of subscriber data, plus improved integration
with third party systems. Additional custom fields can be added as required by Publisher and Admin
users.

exactly. Existing information can be transferred into the standard
f
ields, or custom fields can be created to accommodate account migration.

s
the User ID.
This has been done for migration purposes, but the
se
default settings can be changed by
Publisher and Admin users as desired.
Custom Attributes
Many customers gather additional information about site visitors through permission
-
based market
ing
activities. Custom attributes can easily be added to subscriber records. These custom attributes act
exactly the same as the standard attributes in that they can be linked to a form field and automatically
updated by content entered in the field by t
he subscriber.
Account Locked
Function
A new
Account Locked
check box is automatically turned on at the fourth unsuccessful login attempt of
a subscriber. The subscriber is not deleted from any groups and will continue to receive
email
notifications for
new campaign events, but he or she is not able to log in again until the account is
unlocked by a subscriber administrator.
Email
Unsubscribe Function
A new
Do Not
Email
check box
is available as a standard attribute
that, when turned on,
disables receipt
of
email
notifications for that subscriber
.
This
attribute
allows
users
to add an “unsubscribe” feature to
forms.
When
the check box is turned on, the subscriber
record is kept in the database but flagged as
unavailable to receive
email
.
The subscriber
is still able to log in, but no longer receives
email
notifications for new campaign events. Since this field
is an on/off check
box, users can easily create a
field to allow re
-
subscription, if desired.
Unique ID Changed from
Email
Address to User ID
Pre
viously, the
email
address field was the mandatory field used to differentiate one subscriber from
another. In
5.0
, however, the
User ID
field
is mandatory
and becomes the
unique identifier
, enabling
users to
update
or change their
email
address without h
aving to create a new subscriber record.

Example Scenario
–
4.9.5
Subscriber “Bob” completes Form 1 and the
answers are stored in his subscriber record.
He then completes Forms 2 and 3.
The responses from each form overwrite any
existing conten
t in his subscriber record. In
the example above, Field C would have been
overwritten three times.
By the time he’s done, we don’t know which
forms Bob has completed, nor do we have any
history or context of responses to know if and
how his answers have c
hanged over time.
Example Scenario
–
5.0
Subscriber “
Bob
”
completes Form 1 and the
answers are stored as a fo
rm set in his
subscriber record. Since
Field A has been linked
to
the “Email Address” subscriber attribute
, his
response is
also
recorded there.
Bob completes Form 3, but
in this case,
Field C is
linked to the
“Email Address” attribute.
The
answers are again stored as a form set
and his
response to Field C
o
verwrites his previous
response.

Subscriber and Form Approval Separated
In previous versions of Marqui, Subscribers and Forms were linked. If your
Global Settings
were
configured to auto
-
approve Subscribe
rs, new Subscribers would be automatically approved and you
wouldn’t know if any online forms had been completed. If you didn’t auto
-
approve subscribers, new
subscribers would have to sign up for subscription and then be approved and released before they
could
submit forms. They couldn’t sign up and complete a form in the same session.
Now that Subscribers and Forms have been separated, you can turn on auto
-
approval of Subscribers and
leave auto
-
approval of Forms turned off. This enables a new subscriber
to sign up and complete forms in
a single session, while allowing you to approve and release all the form responses.
New Subscriber Import Wizard
The new Subscriber Import feature enables you to upload large numbers of contacts to your subscriber
data
base from an Excel spreadsheet.
You can view the results of each upload job in a log file. Log files
also contain detailed exception reports, where applicable.
The easy
-
to
-
use import wizard walks you through the following four steps:
Select and upload t
he source file
Map source columns to the destination fields in your subscriber database
Validate the data and produce an exception report, if necessary
Import the data.
Host Site Security for Digital Assets
Previous versions of Marqui have offered the abil
ity to secure Web pages on your site so that they can
only be viewed by authorized subscribers. With this release, you can now
secure digital asset folders
as
well
.
This means that a digital asset remains secure, even if a site visitor tries to access it
by a direct link
instead of navigating through the site menu.
Google Analytics Integration
If you are presently using, or wish to begin using Google Analytics to track your Web site traffic, you can
add tracking code to your pages and access the Analytics
site directly from your Marqui account.
Google Analytics automatically tracks activity on your Web pages. However, you may wish to track
access to your digital assets as well. Google Analytics uses Javascript to perform tracking, so binary
files need
special consideration. It doesn't make sense to track all of the binary files on your site (e.g.
logo.gif), so tracking can be added as desired to individual digital assets.
Publisher and Administrator users can enable or disable Google Analytics from
a new screen under the
Settings Tab. A new tab, Analytics, provides a quick link directly to the login page for your Google
Analytics account.

Integration with Salesforce Customer Relationship
Management (CRM) System
Administrator users can now enable CR
M (Customer Relationship Management) integration on an
account so that leads and contacts can be imported from the Salesforce CRM system and used in
campaign activities. Conversely, subscriber records can be exported to a Salesforce database.
Once the CRM
account connection has been enabled, any user with Subscriber Administrator privileges
can use the new CRM Bridge screen under the Campaigns Tab to import and export data. Imported
contacts can be automatically added to new or existing user groups
.
Subsc
riber Administrators create and run import and export rules to transfer subscriber data. Rules can
be run manually, or set up on an automatic run schedule.
Email notifications can be sent
to specified recipients
whenever a rule is run, or just when an err
or occurs.
Integration with Mondosoft Site Search
Site Search is a new optional feature that enables website visitors to easily find site content. It also
provides analytics so the marketer in charge of the site can see what visitors are searching for a
nd
whether the searches are working.
Site Search functionality is provided by Mondosoft Search Solutions, BehaviourTracking and
InformationManager, so users must also have accounts on those sites. The Site Search screen under
the Settings tab provides a
direct link to these three third party sites so that settings can be configured
and results viewed from within Marqui:
Configure site search settings
: Opens a new browser window and redirects the user to the
Mondosoft administration page.
Configure searc
h results page banner
: If the account is enabled to have the Site Search and
Search Banner features, this link redirects the user to the InformationManager administration page.
View search analytics
: This link is shown if the account is enabled to have
Site Search and Search
Analytics. When clicked, this link opens a new window and redirects the user to the
BehaviorTracking administration page.
Integration with Google and Yahoo Sitemaps
Sitemaps serve a dual purpose for a website. A sitemap published
as a Web page provides an alternate
way for visitors to find information
on a site

that it's integrated into site navigation and matches the look and feel of your site.
A search engine sitema
p is a hidden file that makes it easy for search engines to reach every page on
your site. Better access for search engines results in increased odds of ranking success.

services such as
Google Sitemaps and Yahoo Site Explorer. There are two
new
screens

New Campaigns Module
The redesigned Campaign module enables you to launch Web content and email marketing acti
vities,
and track the conversion of prospects (subscribers who receive an email) to sales leads.
One of the most exciting new features is Goal Tracking.
When initiating an email activity, you can specify
one or more links pointing to a Web page where subs
criber actions are tracked, including arrival at a goal
page. For Web content activities, you can specify a jump page that acts as the entry point for a series of
screens directing the subscriber to a goal page. When subscribers reach a defined goal page,
they are
converted from subscriber prospects to sales leads.
Every marketing campaign activity incurs costs. This new feature helps you calculate an accurate return
on investment (ROI) by allowing you to factor items into your costs such as time spent crea
ting the email,
market investigation, and creation and/or collection of subscriber lists.
New Campaign Activity Analytics
Every email activity generates statistical information that enables you to determine subscriber response to
marketing efforts. If your
host site is running Microsoft .NET, these statistics are now captured by the
system and displayed under the Campaigns tab on the Activity Analytics page.
A
vailable statistics include:
Bounced Emails
–
Hard and Soft
: Number of emails kicked back due to f
ull mailboxes, invalid
addresses, etc.
Clickthroughs: Number of confirmed recipients that clicked on a link embedded in the email.

FAQ
If this is a phased migration, how will I know when it’s time to migrate my account?
You will be contacted well in advance by Marqui Customer Support.
Do I have to migrate to Marqui 5.0?
Yes, eventually. The Marqui 5.0 and 4.9.5 s
ystems will run in parallel while customers are being
migrated, but once all customers are successfully migrated, the 4.9.5 system will be turned off.
Are there any costs or time commitments involved?
The time commitment will vary from custome
r to custo
mer, depending on the complexity of the customer’s
current subscriber and forms configurations.
Why did you redesign the user interface?
The functionality of the Marqui system has grown and developed over time, and new elements have been
integrated into
a user interface that was designed years ago for a less sophisticated system. We wanted
to increase the usability of several aspects of the user interface and give it an overall more contemporary
look and feel. We think the new interface is user
-
friendl
y
, contemporary looking and clean
. Let us know
how you like it!
Will users need to be trained on how to use the new interface or any of the new features?
One of ou
r mandates for the interface re
design was
to keep the organization and layout of functiona
l
elements as close to the previous release as possible. The
new features are intuitive and easy
-
to
-
use
,
but Customer Support is preparing training videos that will help orient existing user to the change
.
If you
can’t find answers to your questions in t
he online User Guide, don’t hesitate to contact Customer Support.
Will you be updating the user guide?
Yes. When your account has been m
igrated, you will notice a new “
Online Help
”
link in the top right
corner of the Marqui screen. Click this link to
display the new
User Guide.
Where should partners go for more information?
Partners should contact Patr
ick Jones in Partner Support.
Is it possible to be a beta tester for future Marqui product releases?
Absolutely. Contact
Marqui Customer Support.
Who do I contact if I have additional questions?
Please contact your sales representative or Marqui Customer Support.
