Friendly URL instead of querystring in EPiServer

by: Ted Nyberg (Hallvarsson & Halvarsson)

I have previously posted a fairly lengthy example on how to implement a friendly URL rewriter in EPiServer . This post does almost the same thing, but I believe this example is a bit more pedagogical as it is shorter and also covers a fairly common scenario. What we are trying to achieve A website contains a blog post listing with tagged posts. The tags are presented in a tag cloud and the tags should link to filtered post listings (displaying only posts for the requested tag). The listing is... [ Read full article ]

EPiServer Composer - How to load content functions defined on a different page

by: Marek Blotny ( Cognifide )

This in another example of interesting EPiServer Composer (version 3.2.5) use case - on homepage there is a content area called "Bottom Area" which contains number of content functions. I want to display this whole content area on other arbitrary pages. Here is a piece of code which can do this for us: 1: var structure = PageDataManager.LoadPageStruct(homepage.PageLink); 2: var contentArea = structure.GetContentAreaById(AreaName.BOTTOM_AREA_ID); 3: for (var i = 0; i < contentArea.ContentFunct...

EPiServer/SharePoint Videos Part #3

by: Dan Matthews

The final part of the EPiServer/SharePoint presentation is ready. This part looks beyond the out-the-box capabilities of EPiServer Connect for SharePoint and investigates the ability of EPiServer to integrate with a MOSS Publishing site using a Custom Page Provider. For those of you who like to see EPiServer technology stretched, this is a must-see as it really demonstrates the ability of EPiServer to do some very cool things with the minimum of code and effort. The link has been added to my... [ Read full article ]

EPiServer and ASP.NET AJAX

by: Ted Nyberg (Hallvarsson & Halvarsson)

Script error after ASP.NET AJAX postback in EPiServer I had two seemingly identical EPiServer websites, each running EPiServer CMS 5 R2 SP1. However, on one of the websites a peculiar script error occured after the second postback in an ASP.NET AJAX UpdatePanel. On the second postback a script error occured stating that a Sys.WebForms.PageRequestManagerServerErrorException error occured returning a 404 . The problem seemed to stem from the friendly URL rewriting. After the first postback, the... [ Read full article ]

If you haven’t, be sure to check out EPiServer filter – part 1.

Page Type Builder 0.7 - Wrapping and enabling mocking of DataFactory

by: Joel Abrahamsson

Since I last wrote about the Page Type Builder project we have started to use it in a real project. That means that the Page Type Builder project has left the experiment phase and the quality demands are a lot higher. Therefore I’d like to rewrite the whole thing using Test Driven Development. To be able to do so I’d like to be able to decouple my code from the database and underlying storage mechanisms in EPiServer CMS. In other words I’d like to mock DataFactory. That is however hard to do ... [ Read full article ]

EPiServer Composer - How to figure out which content function is first (or last) within a content area

by: Marek Blotny ( Cognifide )

In my previous post ( EPiServer-based site in 4 weeks? )I have presented number of quite high level thoughts regarding our last EPiServer project. In this and a few forthcoming post I would like to focus more on technical details and present several more interesting EPiServer Composer (version 3.2.5) use cases. How to figure out which content function is first (or last) within a content area . Imagine following piece of user interface: It's an area where editors can define four arbitrary...

There has been an addition to the EMVP family

by: Mats Hellström

I just came out from the latest meeting in the EMVP board and this time the choice was very easy. We have unanimously selected Joel Abrahamsson from Nansen to be the next EMVP. Joel has put a lot of effort in to his contributions to the EPiServer community by maintaining an excellent blog, writing articles about not only EPiServer CMS, but also EPiServer Community. Which is very much appreciated by all of us in the board. So by writing this I would like to welcome Joel to a very well-earned... [ Read full article ]

A quick tip on postback in a property

by: Anders Hattestad

Two years ago Mari tipped me about a method to disable the popup that appear  with the text “Do you want to navigate away from this page” if you do a postback in the edit part of a property. Today I needed that code and did some searching around. Did not find anything. I mailed Mari but she didn’t have the code sample available. Well I did a bit of reflecting in the ToolBotton web control and found the solution ScriptManager current = ScriptManager.Current; if (current != null ) {... [ Read full article ]
