how to use custom fonts in Umbraco 4 - asp.net

I have bunch of custom fonts and I put them in
/root/css/fonts/
I even tried to put here
Umbraco/config/fonts
either way doesn't work... it's not picking up my fonts... what am I doing wrong?

You can put the fonts anywhere you want, as long as the CSS that uses them points to (and has access to) them.

you should add MINE TYPE to you IIS, that will be help

Trying to override templates in FOSUserBundle, but having no effect

I'm trying to modify the skin of the register.html.twig template found in FOSUserBundle/Resources/views/Registration/register.html.twig.
I've basically followed the instructions in the documentation down to a T.
Like it told to do so, I created /app/Resources/views/FOSUserBundle/views/Registration/register.html.twig.
Cleared the cache (and browser cache just to be sure)
NO effect! I've put a blank file in register.html.twig, but no matter what I put there, when I go to /register/, I still see the default template.
Yep, these things happen all the time.
It should be:
/app/Resources/FOSUserBundle/views/Registration/register.html.twig

wordpress site/home url has /#all tag suffix

i've tried this solution but to no avail, even on the function.php file:

need to get rid of the #all tag on the home/site url on this site:

I tried switching out your Javascript, and it looks like the problem could be somewhere in the file /wp-content/themes/juiced/js/acad.min.js. Unfortunately for you this is a massive gob of minimized Javascript and it's not easy to figure out what's going on in there.
You should really try contacting the author of this theme to find out what the problem is. All I can suggest is that you try changing the value of includeAll to false in this bit near the top of the file.
...{categories:true,categoryOptions:{includeAll:true,defaultCategory:false,...
(Or perhaps change categories to false?)

Wordpress Custom Post Type CSS & JS 404

I'm having a weird problem on a Wordpress site that I've built. I set up custom post types for a portfolio site, circa Wordpress 2.8. Everything worked out great and it was on auto pilot. Somewhere between Wordpress 3.0 and 3.1, the style.css file started throwing out a 404, but only on the single post pages.
EDIT - It's actually every included file. CSS & JS. The plot thickens...
I'm baffled, and I don't even know where to start. I changed the permalinks, re-did the .htaccessfile. Has anyone else ran into this problem?
Here's the link to the site if you want to FireBug it - http://artifexmakeup.com
Sorry, I would post some code, but I have no idea where the problem even begins... but let me know what you need to see, and I'll post it.
You're not linking to the style sheet somehow. I'll look at it in detail when I get off work. I would check the names of your classes in the CSS and make sure that the body class for the single post is named correctly. It appears that the reference to the stylesheet is in the head; I think that's ok. Nice photos!
Your problem is that your files are specified with relative path, so you get wrong url.
http://artifexmakeup.com/patty-boring/wp-content/themes/ArtifexMakeup/html5-boilerplate/css/style.css?v=1301356717
Here patty-boring/ messes up your urls.
I don't know how you specify urls in theme so I can't tell you where you're doing wrong.
Turns out it's something with mod_pagespeed screwing with the custom post types. Thanks for your help!

Problems with relative links while using friendly url

I'm using urlrewiter.net in order to implement friendly url's.
It's a great and easy to use package!
Nevertheless, while using subfolders I had problems with the relative links to images and to other inner pages.
I tried to use ~ (server side) and it didn't do the trick.
Is there another solution?
Because of these issues, I've started to be always give relative (to the root) URLs, so let's say you have an images subdirectory:
http://www.contoso.com/images/blah.jpg
You'd always reference it via "/images/blah.jpg" .. and no matter what the base page/context is, that image will be accessible.
You should probably segment your site so static elements (images, css, etc) are in separate location from your dynamically generated urls. I've used URlRewriter extensively in the past, and it worked great, but our site was setup so that our resources were segmented like that.
You can simply add base tag to your HTML headers. This will force browsers to use specified location to resolve relative links. Maybe this article will help you: SEO-Friendly URLs and Relative Links

How can I modify a CSS file programmatically?

I have a legacy application that I needed to implement a configuration page for to change text colors, fonts, etc.
This applications output is also replicated with a PHP web application, where the fonts, colors, etc. are configured in a style sheet.
I've not worked with CSS previously.
Is there a programatic way to modify the CSS and save it without resorting to string parsing or regex?
The application is VB6, but I could write a .net tool that would do the css manipulation if that was the only way.
You don't need to edit the existing one. You could have a new one that overrides the other -- you include this one after the other in your HTML. That's what the "Cascading" means.
It looks like someone's already done a VB.NET CSS parser which is F/OSS, so you could probably adapt it to your needs if you're comfortable with the license.
http://vbcssparser.sourceforge.net/
One hack is to create a PHP script that all output is passed through, which then replaces certain parts of CSS with configurable alternatives. If you use .htaccess you can make all output go through the script.
the best way i can think of solving this problem is creating an application that will get some values ( through the URL query ) and generate the appropriate css output based on a css templates
Check this out, it uses ASP.NET and C#.
In my work with the IE control (shadocvw.dll), it has an interesting ability to let you easily manage the CSS of a page and show the effects of modified CSS on a page in realtime. I've never dealt with the details of such implementations myself, but I recommend that as a possible solution worth looking at. Seeing as pretty much everyone is on IE 6 or later nowadays, you can skip the explanations about handling those who only have IE 5,4,3 or 2 installed.
Maybe the problem's solution, which is most simple for the programmer and a user is to edit css via html form, maybe. I suppose, to create css-file, which would be "default" or "standart" for this application, and just to read it, for example, by perl script, edit in html and to write it down. Here is just the simple example.
In css-file we have string like:
border-color: #008a77;
we have to to read this string, split it up, and send to a file, which will write it down. Get something like this in Perl:
tr/ / /s;
($vari, $value) = split(/:/, _$);
# # While you read file, you can just at the time to put this into html form
echo($vari.":<input type = text name = ".$vari." value = ".$value.">");
And here it is, you've got just simple html-form-data, you just shoul overwrite your css-file with new data like this:
...
print $vari[i].": ".$value.";\n";
...
and voila - you've got programmatical way of changing css. Ofcourse, you have to make it more universal, and more close to your particular problem.
Depending on how technically oriented your CSS editors are going to be, you could do it very simply by loading the whole thing up into a TextEdit field to let them edit it - then write it back to the file.
Parsing and creating an interface for all the possibilities of CSS would be an astronomical pain. :-)
