The development of the news portal represents a comprehensive digital solution tailored to meet the evolving needs of Petra News Agency and its audiences. The system is designed with a robust, database-driven engine that dynamically displays news, events, banners, and categorized content in real time. Administrators can manage content via a user-friendly CMS, with options for both manual entry and automated news import via FTP and XML integration with Petra’s existing systems.

The portal includes dynamic horizontal and vertical navigation menus for intuitive access to content categories such as Today’s News, Weekly Highlights, Archived Stories, Multimedia Galleries, and more. Specialized sections like News Corner, Top News, Video Gallery, Infographics, and Petra Memories ensure rich content presentation, while interactive forms, contact tools, and a comprehensive sitemap enhance user engagement and accessibility.

Key technical features such as a full-text search engine, advanced search options, responsive image/video management, urgent news banners, and social media integration ensure the platform is both user-centric and operationally efficient. Additionally, service directories, RSS feeds, and regulatory information further support Petra’s role as a central, trusted source of news and information in Jordan and the region.
