Hi There,

Working with Sitecode 6. Totally new to this.

I have to implement xml based sitemap into this site. Can someone please shed
some light how to do this? My XML file might keep changing time to time. So I
want some generic way to implement.

Few thoughts:
    1. Should I develop .net web control and bring it in sitecore?
    2. Use external XML file link and implement in sitecore? How no idea just
thoughts

Any kind of tip help me to nail this down.

Thank you,
-Ahsan

Hello
oftentimes, we want to replace the last asset uploaded to the media directory

i have not found a way to do this, but i would like to view by : size,
date, type, etc

can this be done in sitecore?

cass

I have built the CMS using Sitecore. I now need to access a webservice and
populate Sitecore with that.

To do this I am planning on implementing the DataProvider class which will
interact with the Webservice and provide content for Sitecore such that it can
be reviewed and published.

The documentation discusses being able to 'chain' together multiple
DataProviders - however if I do this as per the documentation, only the last
DataProvider is used. I am expecting an amalgamation of the two to occur.

Under the Master database section in the web.config file I have 2 data providers
as follows:

<dataProviders hint="list:AddDataProvider">
           <dataProvider ref="dataProviders/main" param1="$(id)">
             <prefetch hint="raw:AddPrefetch">
               <sc.include file="/App_Config/Prefetch/Common.config" />
               <sc.include file="/App_Config/Prefetch/Master.config" />
             </prefetch>
           </dataProvider>
           <dataProvider ref="dataProviders/webserviceprovider"/>
         </dataProviders>

Is this the correct way to chain data providers ?

is it possible that the rss feed will get populated from a table in
the database anf if yes then how is it possible.

Most Web controls used with Sitecore inherit from Sitecore.Web.UI.WebControl and
override the DoRender() method rather than inheriting from
System.Web.UI.WebControl and overriding the Render() method. This allows the
developer to bind the Web control to a Sitecore placeholder, drag it onto a
layout or sublayout in the Developer Center, and cache its output using Sitecore
output caching.

I believe it would be best to define public properties for each of the
parameters that you need to pass to the Web control. If for some reason this is
not possible, I believe you could pass the parameters using the
Sitecore.Web.UI.WebControl.Parameters property, using the same encoding syntax
used for query-string parameters. I think you could access those parameters
using something like:

NameValueCollection parameters =
Sitecore.Web.WebUtil.ParseUrlParameters(Parameters);

The System.Web.UI.WebControl class does not expose a Parameters property.

The Sitecore Presentation Components Reference and Cookbook provide more
information about implementing Web controls, including passing parameters:

Hi Everyone,

I have created a WebControl by inheriting from System.Web.UI.Control
class. For a WebControl we can get parameters by declaring it as
public property but in my case, there will be any number of
parameters will be passed. So, if I want to get the list of all the
parameters for the Control, how can I get it?

Here is the definition of class.
/*****/
public class MyControl : System.Web.UI.Control

{

}
/*****/

Thanks and Regards,

Urvesh

Inherit from Sitecore.Web.UI.WebControl instead of System.Web.UI.WebControl, and
override DoRender() instead of Render().

If you inherit from System.Web.UI.WebControl, you can't use the control in
Developer Center, you can't bind it to a placeholder, and you can't use Sitecore
output caching for that control.

Hi,

I have created one control which is inherited from
System.Web.UI.Control

It works fine in Content Editor..but if you go to Developer Center and
add the control to any layout it generates runtime error.

The error message is : Type 'mynamespace.mycontrol' doen not have a
publich property named  'renderingid'

Can anybody have any idea what i am doing wrong here?

Thanks in advance...

Hi JD
yes, flash and sitecore not palying nice is the source of great frustration
the one workaroud which is ugly, but gets the job done is
using
this in your html view
////////

inline[src="url://www.yourdomain.com/App_Media/yourSWFdirectory/slideshow.swf"
style="width: 550px; height: 420px; float: right;"]inline
///////
src - is uri to your swf file
style - up to you, you can add as many attributes as you want
make sure no spaces between beginning and ending //inline// and
brackets // [ ] //

make sure that both your .swf file and your xml file are in the same
directory/folder under /yourSWFdirectory, publish them both from media
and then publish your page.

it bugs me that  it's a non-508 compliant iframe, in essence, but....
we had no choice

grrr

let me know if that helps out

Hi

I have had a similar problem in the past.
Maybe the problem is that the App_Data i protected by default. You
could unprotected the folder, or you could define the media folder path
in the web.config to a not protected one.

Hello Friends,

I am trying to render flash added in media library in sitecore 6.0

I am getting the item by parametes from one my rendering control as
showen below.


Item flashFileItem = Sitecore.Context.Database.Items[parameters
["src"]];
MediaItem flashFile = (MediaItem)flashFileItem;
Controls.Add(new LiteralControl("src=\"" +
Sitecore.Resources.Media.MediaManager.GetMediaUrl((MediaItem)
flashFileItem) + "\""));


inn above code i get value of
Sitecore.Resources.Media.MediaManager.GetMediaUrl((MediaItem)
flashFileItem) as something like
http://localhost/~/media/Flash/logo.ashx

which renders flash file in mozilla but it does not render Flash file
in IE, does any one have idea why it does not work in IE?

and the strange thing is when i use same code for JPG file in media
library it works supereb in both browser !!!! :(

Hi there

We are currently on the lookout for a Sitecore Developer to work on one
of our client's sites. It would probably be about a month's work with
the possibility to be extended.

At the moment we are just looking at current availability and rates -
also any examples of previous work would be great.

Many thanks

Hi All:
I am with Epsolon Inc. and we are in need for a SITECORE developer. I
will appreciate a call if you are one and are in need of a job. I can
be reached at 832-615-3200 or email me your resume and contact details
at yasir@...

One of our page on the sitecore where we make the changes to the page
and publish it is missing. But the page is on the website. Website
pulls the page fine. Just cannot see in sitecore in order to make some
changes.
I have looked in the recycle bin and did a search in sitecore and
still i am not able to find it.
any help

Sorry for the delayed response. Can you explain what you
mean by an OnSave event handler? Do you mean an item:saving or item:saved event
handler, a processor in the saveUI pipeline or something else?





I actually would be worried about the popup issue - there
seem to be some custom components interacting badly, leading to a somewhat
unpredictable system. If Sitecore has been upgraded (and even if it hasn't - IE
seems to periodically corrupt cached resources), I would try clearing the
browser cache. If that doesn't resolve the issue I would file a support case.





Regarding the layout issue, you shouldn't have to do
anything to copy those settings from the master - if the master has layout
settings, they are automatically copied to all items
created from that master. But really it's best to leave layout settings blank in
the master and the items, and assign them to the standard values in the
templates instead.





I would open support cases about both issues. If it's
urgent, I would request a web meeting so support can look at the system.





Best regards,





    -John

Hey John,

The item is in all of the newly opened Content Editors, with no data
tree (the site tree), just the lone item.  This is just weird, I do
have a OnSave() eventhandler for the same item.  It really could be a
phenomena that happens between the two calls.  The client really
isn't concerned; in other areas of the application the client
receives error messages from Sitecore and that is when they now that
the function actually worked. lol :)  So, this isn't a big deal,
especially with our deadline.

What is concerning me is that the layout from the Master is not being
pulled into the newly created Item.  Do I need to call the
base.OnItemCreated()? Or, is there anywhere in the eventHandler that
I need to do something special to insure that the layout is being
created along with the item?  I did verify through Sitecore's UI that
the item is inherited from the corect master.

John, thank you for all of your time and intelligence on these
matters!

Does it open the same item in all content editors, or different items
(maybe this is a result of default children in your master?).

You may want to use item:added instead of item:created
(http://sdn5.sitecore.net/FAQ/API/added%20or%20created%20event.aspx)
or you may have to fall back to item:saved.

Sitecore.DateUtil.IsoNow seems to provide a convenience for getting
the system date in the required format.

I just tested with a master which had a child, both based on the same
template which had a field named ItemCreationDate. I used the
following configuration and code. I did not experience any issues
using 5.3.2 071220 - the field was populated for both items and no new
content editor windows opened.

<event name="item:created">
   <handler type="Global.Events.ItemEventHandler, Global"
method="OnItemCreated">
     <FieldName>ItemCreationDate</FieldName>
   </handler>
</event>

using System;

namespace Global.Events
{
     public class ItemEventHandler
     {
         private string _fieldName = null;

         public string FieldName
         {
             get { return (_fieldName); }
             set { _fieldName = value; }
         }

         public void OnItemCreated( object Sender, EventArgs args )
         {
             Sitecore.Diagnostics.Assert.IsNotNull(_fieldName, "Field
name not provided" );
             Sitecore.Data.Events.ItemCreatedEventArgs cArgs =
Sitecore.Events.Event.ExtractParameter(args, 0) as
Sitecore.Data.Events.ItemCreatedEventArgs;

             if (cArgs != null && cArgs.Item != null &&
cArgs.Item.Fields[FieldName] != null &&
String.IsNullOrEmpty(cArgs.Item.Fields[FieldName].Value))
             {
                 cArgs.Item.Editing.BeginEdit();
                 cArgs.Item.Fields[FieldName].Value =
Sitecore.DateUtil.IsoNow;
                 cArgs.Item.Editing.EndEdit();
             }
         }
     }
}
