Brightlabs is proud to announce the release of version 2.4 of iCMS!


Tomorrow will see the release of iCMS 2.4 - the newly revised and improved version of Brightlabs' popular Content Management System. Over the past several months, the Brightlabs team has been steadily working away at making new additions, improvements, fixes and compatibility changes to ensure that the users of our system get the best user experience possible.

Accessing the new system

To log into the new version of iCMS, you simply have to go to the existing URL for system - http://icms.imagin8.com and login with your existing username and password.

Things to remember

The most important thing to remember is that you still edit and add content in the same way as you did in version 2.3. Though there are a number of new features, you still choose between creating and editing an item, category or document.

Version 2.4 has been built with compatibility in mind, but to ensure you get the best user experience when working with the system, we suggest that you upgrade to the latest version of your browser of Firefox or Internet Explorer. You can download the newest versions of these browsers here:

Internet Explorer | Mozilla Firefox

Details about the changes

To find out more about what changes have been made, please refer to the new iCMS Help Document. You can download this as a PDF file once you have logged into iCMS.


New features

Form and Survey Builder - The Form and Survey Builder is an exciting new Module for iCMS that was built to allow users to create their own customised website forms that can be easily added to a page and edited at any time. The Form Builder allows users to create custom fields, drop down menus, check boxes and other various options for web forms. Once a form is created, it can then be easily edited at any time with the intuitive form editor screen that allows you to move, edit and delete elements of the form at the click of a button.



The Form and Survey Builder also offers an easy to use reporting system that works like a survey tool that shows you the results of your form responses in a clear and simple submission report.



Login Screen - The first time you log in to version 2.4 of iCMS, you will notice the new login screen for the system which now reflects our new identity as Brightlabs.

From the login screen, you can access further information about new features, book training sessions with Brightlabs, and update your browser to the newest version available to ensure you receive the best possible user experience when working with iCMS.

Version 2.4 also includes a variety of key browser compatibility improvements which are aimed at making the user experience more enjoyable.


How to get the most out of iCMS
