I am new to SiteFinity. This is the first time I have ever seen it.
I am trying to find out how to check to see if the user is logged in and if they are, do not load certain javascript files (we have a conflict that is causing problems with sitefinity's page editor)
So in the header I want to do something like
if(user_logged_in())
... load js file here
Also I am trying to do this in the master template files.
Version 6.1 FYI
You can try:
ClaimsManager.GetCurrentIdentity().IsAuthenticated
This will return whether or not the user is logged in but it sounds like you need to know if they are a backend user so maybe try:
ClaimsManager.GetCurrentIdentity().IsBackendUser
You'll need this using directive:
using Telerik.Sitefinity.Security.Claims;
I think this might work for you. If the user is authenticated it will load you your .js file.
var isValidUser = SecurityManager.AuthenticateUser(UserManager.GetDefaultProviderName(), userName, userPassword, true);
if (isValidUser == UserLoggingReason.Success){
JavaScriptEmbedControl scriptToEmbed = new JavaScriptEmbedControl();
scriptToEmbed.Url = "path-to-file.js";
scriptToEmbed.ScriptEmbedPosition = Telerik.Sitefinity.Web.UI.PublicControls.Enums.ScriptEmbedPosition.InPlace;
this.form1.Controls.Add(scriptToEmbed);
}

I am new at this and I do not know how to get info from site and show it in UI. I have tried using plugins but do not know how to. I want to get the numbers showing on the site which are constantly updated to be shown in a UI field when refresh button is click. Can someone please help I am stuck over here.
The site is results site which revise the numbers on it daily bases. The numbers are changing and its a active server page.
As Vancete said, WWW could be used to solve this.
Create a Coroutine, load the data from the webpage and then do something with it.
IEnumerator GetDataFromWebpage (string url)
{
WWW webpage = new WWW(url);
while (!webpage.isDone) yield return false;
string content = webpage.text;
. . .
// Do something with <content>
}
You can take a look here:
https://docs.unity3d.com/ScriptReference/WWW.html
So you should create an WWW object with the desired URL, wait for the response, then load the object.text property. After all, do a substring of what you need and you are done!
Feel free to ask if you need some more help.
I'm working on custom Drupal8 module. My module uses this routing file:
kalvis.routing.yml
kalvis.content:
path: '/kalvis/{from}/{to}'
defaults:
_controller: '\Drupal\kalvis\Controller\kalvisController::content'
_title: ''
requirements:
_permission: 'access content'
What does _permission part stand for and where can I find a list of all possible values for this parameter?(in tut's I've watched were used only access content and access administrative content but I suppose there is a lot more of them)
PS: I'm using Drupal 8 beta 10 installed on WAMP
If you want to see a list of all permission, the code below should work. work. If you are coding your own module you can define your own permissions and test if a user has a role with that permission.
function my_module_page_attachments_alter(array &$attachments) {
$perms = array_keys(\Drupal::service('user.permissions')->getPermissions());
}
To answer the question what is the _permission part of the routing structure. Here is a quote from the drupal docs about what it does.
_permission: A permission string (e.g., _permission: 'access content'). You can specify multiple permissions by separating them with ',' (comma) (e.g., _permission: 'access content,access user profiles') for AND logic or '+' (plus) for OR logic (e.g., _permission: 'access content+access user profiles' means a visitor needs either the access content permission or the access user profiles permission to view the page. Having both is fine, too.). Module-specific permission strings can be defined in my_module_name.permissions.yml. See hook_permission() replaced with permissions defined in a my_module_name.permissions.yml file for details.
source: https://www.drupal.org/docs/drupal-apis/routing-system/structure-of-routes
To put it simply this restricts access to this route by only allowing users with the specified permission(s) to access it. To use it you need to know the system name of the permission(s) you want to use to restrict access. Then you just place then as a string behind this paramerter. Like in the quote above. You can choose to use multiple permissions by separating them with , for AND logic or + for OR logic. Permissions system names are allowed to have spaces in them and frequently do.
I don't think there is any way to directly see it in ui if you are talking about the system names of the permissions. You can ofcource see all permissions on www.site.com/admin/people/permissions. If you are in a hurry and/or looking for a specific permission you can always look through the module.permissions.yml file of the module this permission is defined in.
If you do want to see all permissions you can make your own list of all the system names.
You can use the PermissionHandler service from the core module.
This does the following gets all yaml's and creates a list.
You would call this by calling Drupal::service('user.permissions')->getPermissions() (https://api.drupal.org/api/drupal/core%21modules%21user%21src%21PermissionHandler.php/function/PermissionHandler%3A%3AgetPermissions/8.2.x)
You can use or try to write similar code to the functionality of the user_role_permissions function from the user.module file in drupal core. It looks like this:
function user_role_permissions(array $roles) {
if (defined('MAINTENANCE_MODE') && MAINTENANCE_MODE == 'update') {
return _user_role_permissions_update($roles);
}
$entities = Role::loadMultiple($roles);
$role_permissions = array();
foreach ($roles as $rid) {
$role_permissions[$rid] = isset($entities[$rid]) ? $entities[$rid]
->getPermissions() : array();
}
return $role_permissions;
}
This code as you can see just loads all the role entities with loadMultiple (although technically you should use the entitytypemanager to load the entities whenever possible like $entities = \Drupal::entityTypeManager()->getStorage($entity_type)->loadMultiple([1, 2, 3]); for more information see the drupal entity api (https://www.drupal.org/docs/drupal-apis/entity-api/working-with-the-entity-api)).
After loading all the roles it makes a list of all permissions.
Source information below. This should stay up to date because drupal keeps their documentation versioned. But because comments suggested it I figured I might as well write it out to save you some clicks.
Original drupal documentation.
https://api.drupal.org/api/drupal/core!modules!user!user.module/function/user_role_permissions/8.2.x
Hope this helps! :)
You can confirm in the page '/admin/people/permissions'.
A quick and dirty way to see them is to create a View with a Page display. Then in the 'Access' section, ensure 'Permission' is selected and open up the options as if you were going to choose a different permission.
You can now inspect the HTML of the <select> element, the Ids of each option is the correct name for each permission:
I created simple HttpModule, all what I need is just get is valid Sitecore.Context inside but during processing I see that my Sitecore.Context is some kind of default.
I can get Sitecore user that log in to Sitecore, etc.
How to fix it ?
I assume you have a Sitecore Context, but it is null or set to the wrong site or language.
You can change the context like this:
// switch to the preferred site
Sitecore.Context.SetActiveSite("yourSiteName");
// set the preferred database
Sitecore.Context.Database = Sitecore.Configuration.Factory.GetDatabase("master");
// set the preferred language
Language language = Sitecore.Globalization.Language.Parse("en");
Sitecore.Context.SetLanguage = (language, false);
You probably also want to switch back to the original settings after your processing is done. So it is wise to "save" the original settings in a variable so you can change them back afterwards
Take a look at John West's posts on Sitecore pipelines for some background on how the context is being established.

My problem is almost like that of http://elrte.org/redmine/boards/2/topics/734?r=3250 which didn't get any solution.
I am using elfinder on my wordpress site in which on every user register I create a folder under the files directory on username and when that user comes to the interface where elfinder shows I want elfinder to show that user his user's folder as the root directory instead of the actual root set.
I found out through code that the root directory is set in connectors/php/connector.php file that passes it to elFinder.class.php file
I even found out a way to do that hardcoded... which is if you go into elFinder.class.php file and append the username with root in __contruct function everything works fine
public function __construct($options=array()) {
foreach ($this->_options as $k=>$v) {
if (isset($options[$k])) {
$this->_options[$k] = is_array($this->_options[$k])
? array_merge($this->_options[$k], $options[$k])
: $options[$k];
}
}
if (substr($this->_options['root'], 1) == DIRECTORY_SEPARATOR) {
$this>_options['root'] = substr($this->_options['root'], 0, 1);
} $this>_options['root'] .= 'username';
But the problem is that I am unable to find a way through which I can access username in elFinder way... It feels like there will be some simple way that my mind just ain't clicking to.. any help in this regard will be greatly appreciate.
Even if I can't access username in this function and somehow pass the username to this function or connector.php which calls its construct???
Modifying elFinder.class.php is a wrong way, what you need is to get your WordPress instance inside connector.php and generate correct root option for current user, the username/path you should get from WordPress.
I'm putting up a site using Wordpress and I'd like to piggyback on its sessions. But I'm not finding any plugins, or even documentation. Any suggestions or references before I start hacking it?
Note: I'm asking about if and how WP uses standard PHP sessions itself, not how to add PHP sessions e.g. using session_start(). Apparently any state WP maintains is accomplished by other means. So if I want to use PHP sessions I need to add and maintain it myself entirely, using techniques like those in the thread.
Thanks all!
It's a very bad idea to modify WP Core files for the ability to use sessions. The best way I've found is to call the session_start() from init action hook.
function kana_init_session() {
session_start();
}
add_action('init', 'kana_init_session', 1);
You can place it in functions.php file of your theme.
Detailed article can be found here: http://www.kanasolution.com/2011/01/session-variable-in-wordpress/
WordPress doesn't appear to call session_start() because it wants to be stateless
and if register_globals is defined, it automatically destroys your $_SESSION
Consider using WordPress Transient API
Values stored using the Transient API are visible to all users, not just the current user, depending on the unique identifier used to retrieve the transient, you could assign each user a unique identifier essentially causing a transient to behave very much like a session.
Further considerations:
Depending on a users setup with object cache, etc., transients may
not always be stored in the DB (e.g. memcached), using transients for
sessions could mean that the data can get bulky and fill memory
quickly (in the use of memcached).
Also, it seems that WP does not do auto garbage collection for
transients:
https://wordpress.stackexchange.com/questions/6602/are-transients-garbage-collected
For what I need to do, the best answer involves:
To allow the cookie for wordpress to persist across subdomains, install the Root Cookie plugin.
sub1.domain.com has wordpress; sub2.domain.com is another site. From the other site (sub2), I read the cookies to identify who the user is and if the user is logged in.
My cookies are as follows:
[wordpress_909bb230b32f5f0473202684d863b2e0] => mshaffer|1255298821|d0249fced9c323835c5bf7e84ad3ffea
[wordpress_logged_in_909bb230b32f5f0473202684d863b2e0] => mshaffer|1255298821|56e9c19541ecb596a1fa0995da935700
Using PHP, I can loop over the cookies, parse the key=>value pairs. These cookies let me know that [mshaffer] has a cookie stored on wordpress, and also is authenticated as logged_in. The expiry of the cookie is 1255298821.
In sub2, I can query the database of wordpress and grab the user info:
SELECT * FROM `wp_users` WHERE user_login = 'mshaffer' ... grab user_id, user_email from this query
SELECT * FROM `wp_usermeta` WHERE user_id = '$user_id' ... grab lots of other data from wp
With this info, I can add to my sub2 session variable / cookie and do what I want with the data. I can identify if I am logged in, and my username ... which let's me grab lots of different data. I can now use WordPress authentication in my sub2.domain.com and redirect accordingly.

Wordpress doesn't seem to use any sessions.
The best way to go about it is to use the action hooks it provides.
Have you checked the solution here this may work for here and its on easy way
http://thedigilife.com/wordpress-how-to-set-session-custom-variable-while-login/
Hooking a function with session_start() on wp_loaded seems to work in this case.
Put this code in wp-config.php at first line:
if (!session_id()) {
session_start();
}
Put this code in theme's header.php at first line:
session_start();
Then it will maintain all session variables.
If you wanna use your own session values, Wordpress does support it.
You need to add following lines at the top of wp-config.php
if (!session_id()) {
session_start();
}
Then add following line at the top of header.php
session_start();
