Custom Media Provider Under Global Site Root.

Im having troubles getting my route to get picked up.  It always returns "/Recycle-Bin/filename" as the resolved url. 

I have the following routes enabled.

RouteTable.Routes.MapContentRoute(
                    name: "MyMedia",
                    url: "mymedia/{node}/{partial}/{action}",
                    defaults: new { action = "index" },
                    contentRootResolver: (s) => root.ContentLink);
            // EPiServer UI needs the language segment
            RouteTable.Routes.MapContentRoute(
                name: "MyMediaEdit",
                url: CmsHomePath + "mymedia/{language}/{medianodeedit}/{partial}/{action}",
                defaults: new { action = "index" },
                contentRootResolver: (s) => root.ContentLink);

What i don't understand is i specified the root content link but always get /recycle-bin/xxxx.jpg.  Any ideas.
I have specifed the following versionable items in my createcontentwithidientiy method as well

if (content is IVersionable versionable)
            {
                versionable.IsPendingPublish = false;
                versionable.Status = VersionStatus.Published;
                versionable.StartPublish = DateTime.MinValue;
            }
 var securable = content as IContentSecurable;
            securable.GetContentSecurityDescriptor().AddEntry(new AccessControlEntry(EveryoneRole.RoleName, AccessLevel.Read));

Edit blob Uri from Guid to filename

Hi,

I wrote some code so when an editor uploads an image different sizes of the uploaded image are created and save to a blob in aws, in the format epi.fx.blob://[provider]/[container]/[blob]] 

While I can change the container portion, I am having problems figuring out how to change the blob portion of uri which is the image, to the image name plus the size it was changed to.

Any ideas on how to do this?

How to tell if current visitor is identified by submitting a form?

$
0
0

We are currently setting up our integration with episerver forms, profile store and insight. I have some logic I want to execute if the current user is no longer anonymous, having previously filled out any form with an email address. 

A second question I have is how do I tell if the user has filled out a certain form previously? I can see methods on the FormDataRepository to query form responses, but no way to filter by the person who submitted it. I hope I do not have to cycle thru all entries just to see a certain identified person has already submitted it. 

Any help on both of these matters would be greatly appreciated.

Showing private IP under azure loadbalancer

I got issue while I go to admin /Episerver it redirects to private IP under an Azure load balancer with two cms instance hosted on azure VM machine.

Url: http://PRIVATE-IP/util/login.aspx?ReturnUrl=%2FEPiServer

But it works if directly go to https://DOMAIN-NAME/util/login.aspx?ReturnUrl=%2FEPiServer

Seems like HTTPs redirect issue under a load balancer.

Why /Episerver redirect to insecure HTTP ?

How to fix this issue. Your help will be appreciated.

Conditional Sorting Issue

$

0

I have a requirement to sort products using a condition.

For ex -

First, products need to be sorted from the boolean property Featured

Then by a dynamic product category (coming from a algorithm which decides the category which the user has mostly bought)

Then by the created date

Following is the search query:

Please note that desiredCategory is the product category which describes above (This value is dynamic). 

MainCategoryForFind is the top category of the product

Following exception throws from the query when trying to get the result.

Error - System.ApplicationException: 'Unable to retrieve the field type (such as return value) from expression of type MethodBinaryExpression.'

Then Modified code as below.

it also didn't work. Following error throws when trying to get the result.

System.NotSupportedException: 'Sorting by expressions of type EPiServer.Find.DelegateFilterBuilder is not supported. Change the sorting expression x => x.CourseTypeForFind.Match(value(EPiServer.UTS.Web.UTS.Features.ContentListing.ContentListingService+<>c__DisplayClass5_0`1[EPiServer.UTS.Web.UTS.Features.CourseProduct.CourseProduct]).courseType). Supported types to sort by are native value types such as int, DateTime, nullable versions of the same and strings.'

Is there any other proper way to fulfill this requirement ?

Autoboost

I am trying to boost product search results based on the score of frequently used hits (hit boosting), and tracking is enabled. I have played around with different values for hitBoostScale and decayScale, but I seem to get the same result no mather how I change the values.

Could someone indicate what would be the correct values for hitBoostScale if I want to boost the results based on frequently used hits?

It may be because I am blond, but the documentation:

To control the rapidity of the decay, set the hitBoostScale parameter, which sets the half-life, where the boost is at 50%. By default, hitBoostScale is set to 0.1 (10%). Lowering the scale makes the inverted decay more rapid. If you set a value higher than 0.1, it leads to cut-off where the hit boost cannot reach the upper range limit.

do not make me more wise. ;)

Custom Access denied page for EPiserver media files

$
0
0

Hello,

I am new to Episerver and trying to figure out below mentioned issue.

I have implemented a 404 page based httperrors from web.config. I have implemented a custom access denied page so that users see this page instead of redirecting to start page. The reference used is from 

https://world.episerver.com/forum/developer-forum/-Episerver-75-CMS/Thread-Container/2014/8/Display-Insufficient-Permission-Messaging-instead-of-redirecting-to-login/

This access denied logic works for page types but when I have a media file (pdf etc) on click of it, this still takes me to start page instead of access denied page.

Any inputs on how can I redirect to my access denied page instead of start page when navigating to a media file and user doesnt have appropriate access.

Thanks.

Custom login page

So I am trying to create a custom login page instead of the EPi Server. Right now I have created a custom controller and model and page using this tutoiral

https://world.episerver.com/blogs/Daniel-Ovaska/Dates/2016/6/creating-a-custom-login-page/

The thing is when I type http://localhost:53067/LoginPage/Index in the browser window I get null for the currenPage in the below code

        public ActionResult Index(LoginPage currentPage, [FromUri]string ReturnUrl)
        {
            /* Implementation of action. You can create your own view model class that you pass to the view or
             * you can pass the page type for simpler templates */
            var model = new LoginModel(currentPage);
            model.LoginPostbackData.ReturnUrl = ReturnUrl;
            return View(model);
        }

Does anyone know what am I missing here?

A lovely cryptic message when publishing content "Culture is not supported. Parameter name: name h is an invalid culture identifier"

h is a veeery strange culture identifier, so the error seems legit.

After some time debugging i came to realise that this is yet another issue caused by having a lot of languages (Our instance has 125 enabled epi languages)

Here is the stacktrace:

After some sql profiling i found this sproc was called: "ecfVersion_ListByWorkIds", which in turn calls this sproc: "ecfVersionCatalog_ListByWorkIds"

When i run it i see the languages for our catalog comes out as "ar-ae;ar-bh;ar-dz;ar-eg;ar-iq;ar-jo;ar-kw;ar-lb;ar-ly;ar-ma;ar-om;ar-qa;ar-sa;ar-tn;ar-ye;az;bg;bg-bg;bs;cs-cz;da-dk;de-at;de-de;el-gr;en;en-ag;en-ai;en-au;en-bb;en-bm;en-bs;en-bz;en-ca;en-dm;en-gb;en-gd;en-gy;en-hk;en-id;en-ie;en-il;en-jm;en-kn;en-ky;en-lc;en-ms;en-my;en-nz;en-ph;en-pr;en-sg;en-si;en-tt;en-us;en-vc;en-vg;en-vi;en-za;es-419;es-ar;es-bo;es-cl;es-co;es-cr;es-do;es-ec;es-es;es-gt;es-hn;es-mx;es-ni;es-pa;es-pe;es-py;es-sv;es-uy;es-ve;fi-fi;fr-be;fr-ca;fr-fr;fr-gp;fr-ht;fr-mq;hi-in;hr-hr;hu-hu;h"

That last one is lovely, right? :)

As it turns out "ecfVersionCatalog_ListByWorkIds" calls a custom function called "fn_JoinCatalogLanguages()" that has this lovely nugget in it: "DECLARE @RetVal nvarchar(512)"

that means that a maximum of 512 characters of combined comma-delimited language codes can be returned, if it goes over then you get to see the if you are lucky to have the alst language code being complete or incomplete.

Could someone at epi please increase the retval of this function for the (admittedly few) of us that have a lot of languages.

Cheers

CMS Personalization on cached pages in Akamai

$
0
0

Hi,

We have a CMS website developed in EPI 11 and hosted on Cloud EPI DXC. We have Akamai CDN on top of Cloudflare CDN what Episerver provides.

In Akamai CDN we cache the pages to serve from there instead of calling for server every time for better response.

We are now want to use built in Episerver visitor group criterias for personalization. 

The issue is, as we are caching a page in CDN, we are not able to personalize it via CDN.

For example, we have following issues:

1.for the first time users which does not have any cookie, session etc, we will not be able to identify that user which page to serve.

2.as editor can apply mutiple visitor group criterias, how to cache those number of permutations and server those via CDN for all the users.

Does, anyone have faced or came across such scenario. It will be great help.

Thanks,

Sanket Mahimkar

Decimal metafield using MetaFieldBuilder

$
0
0

Hi,

I'm trying to add a metafield to the cls_organization table, by using the MetaFieldBuilder. Now, creating most of the fields works fine, however, I am not able to create a decimal with a specific precision and scale. When I use the CreateDecimal method, a float is created, which is not what I want.

If I add en entry in the [mcmd_MetaFieldType], with name "Decimal" and MCDataType 18, and use the CreateMetaField method instead where I specify "Decimal" as the typeName and pass an AttributeCollection with specific Precision and Scale, it works fine.

What I am wondering is, is this a safe way to achieve the decimal column in the database?

Best regards
Jessica
