I am getting a very weird problem when attempted to cut-and-paste folders from one place to another in our intranet Plone site. The paste operation returned the error "Nothing in the clipboard". However it had gone and removed the folder from where it had originally been, and it looks as though it hasn't been inserted yet into the new location. Showing the Content view of the folder in which the paste happened does not show the pasted folder. However, through the ZMI interface I can see that the paste has happened. Clearly something threw an error before the pasted content was moved successfully, and it is left in a weird state.
For example the site search can find the content in the new pasted location, and the bread-crumbs show that those content pages are beneath the folder which is otherwise invisible to Plone.
Is it possible - maybe through the ZMI - to get this folder to be visible in the Plone world?
That is a weird bug. The quick solution to get the folder to display in Plone is to go to the ZMI, then visit portal_catalog, then locate (in one of the tabs) the button to rebuild the catalog. This ought to regenerate the catalog indexes (which may have failed to be updated when you did the cut/paste, through no fault of your own) and thus all the views (folder listings, etc) in Plone will display the new index (the views use the catalog to know what to display).
The same problem as I copied a folder from one language folder to an other the pasted object was only visible in ZMI
As fRiSi said the problem was the language category in Categorization tab > Language
Because I had many subobjects inside a folder I run the script below to change the language categorization recursively
Based on Convert LinguaPlone sub-language back to language for all content?
path = '/'.join(context.getPhysicalPath())
for brain in context.portal_catalog(path={'query': path, 'depth': 1000}, Language="it"):
obj = brain.getObject()
obj.setLanguage('en')
obj.reindexObject(idxs=['Language'])
print brain.getURL()
return printed

I have a problem with references to an image not updating in pages that are using that image.
This is the steps that the users are reporting
go to /siteadmin#/content/dam/
on the "new" dropdown menu, select "new file"
select an image file that is a different image but has the same name as a file that already exists
upload the file and when asked that a file already exists, choose replace
activate the file when the upload completes
The problem is that when I check pub I can see the image is updated, and if I navigate to the path of the image, for example:
pub1.mypub:4503/content/dam//my-image.png
I can see the new image I replaced the old one with
the problem is that pages that were referencing the image, specifically the image component, still shows the old image. I've check flush rules, checked workflows and nothing seems to work
The one thing I noticed is that in pages that are referencing the image the path is like this
/content//_jcr_content/my-component/my-component-parsys/columns/parsyscenter/image.img.jpg/1538602163986.jpg
so it seems the path it is using is like a generated path and not the same path as this one: pub1.mypub:4503/content/dam//my-image.png
im at a complete loss, I honestly do not know what else to check, has anyone ran into this and figured out how to fix it?
this is on aem 6.3
the problem is that in pubs the image being referenced in the component does not update, and since it does not update in pub, it never updates dispatcher
You can try activating the referenced pages after the image has been published. Since the page on publish has reference to the previous image.
I'm testing the Django CMS and I'm looking for a way to create the pages one time for all languages. Currently I have to create a new page for each languages and the content/plugin/structure is not shared between the different languages.
Is there a way to achieve this?
Thanks in advance
The built-in management command ./manage.py cms copy lang copies the entire page tree from one language to another. The page tree stays unchanged and the plugin trees are transferred. That is fine if you want to bootstrap a new language for the entire site.
If you want to copy the plugin trees for only one page, you can use the language menu from the toolbar: Language -> Copy all plugins if you are viewing the target language. This is fine, if you only have one page.
If you want to bootstrap a language for a page tree, i.e. a page and all its children, then you either have a lot of clicking to do, or use this short management command I created based on the original DjangoCMS ./manage.py cms copy long command. It allows to specify a page to copy either by its id or by its name in the source language (attention: it has to be unique).
Copy this snippet into any of your application's command folder: my_app/management/commands/. Once you've copied the file you'll have a new Django management command available: ./manage.py copylang. Usage examples:
./manage.py copylang --from-lang=en --to-lang=nl --tree="Home"
./manage.py copylang --from-lang=en --to-lang=nl --tree_id=36 --force
The page id needed for the --tree_id option can be easily inferred from the page admin by hovering over the page's preview icon. The page id is part of the link: .../page/page_id/lang/preview/...
If you leave out the --treeand the --tree_id options the command will revert to DjangoCMS's original cms copy lang behaviour.
The management command provided by #Fabian is quite useful.
I updated the command code here to reflect the changes in django-cms API:
# pages = [head] + list(head.children.drafts())
pages = [head] + list(head.get_child_pages().drafts())
Tested against django-cms 3.5.3 and 3.7.4.
All credits go to #Fabian.
I recently moved a wordpress site from my C: drive to a pre-production environment, linux-based machine. The site works well-ish now.
I am using NextGEN galleries there and am using custom gallery theme. This is the problem: After moving, for some reason the galleries refer to the gallery with absolute path of the C: drive, which is obviously not working since this is another machine. I looked into the database to see if there's any value starting with C:\ and indeed I found out several of them and corrected them from C:\xampp\htdocs/wp-content/themes/subspace\nggallery\gallery-subspace.php to wp-content/themes/subspace\nggallery\gallery-subspace.php. However, after refreshing the page which used the gallery in WYSIWYG editor of WP and checking its settings, it stil referred to the template on the C: drive (namely, this is on the "display galleries tab", under "Customize the display settings", it is the value of the "Template" setting).
I checked the database again and there was no path like this in it. I refreshed the page, no difference. I got irritated and went to get a cup of coffee. When I returned, I ran the database query without any modifications again and found this in the wp_options table, option name "_transient_e4ae686b7454a142b0618b1ff15b38f4":
O:8:"stdClass":17:{s:2:"ID";i:4018;s:13:"post_password";s:0:"";s:10:"menu_order";i:0;s:16:"display_settings";a:20:{s:27:"override_thumbnail_settings";s:1:"0";s:15:"thumbnail_width";s:3:"120";s:16:"thumbnail_height";s:2:"90";s:14:"thumbnail_crop";s:1:"1";s:15:"images_per_page";s:2:"24";s:17:"number_of_columns";s:1:"0";s:15:"ajax_pagination";s:1:"1";s:20:"show_all_in_lightbox";s:1:"0";s:23:"use_imagebrowser_effect";s:1:"0";s:17:"show_piclens_link";s:1:"0";s:17:"piclens_link_text";s:14:"[Show PicLens]";s:19:"show_slideshow_link";s:1:"0";s:19:"slideshow_link_text";s:16:"[Show slideshow]";s:8:"template";s:73:"C:\xampp\htdocs/wp-content/themes/subspace\nggallery\gallery-subspace.php";s:19:"use_lightbox_effect";b:1;s:23:"display_no_images_error";i:1;s:18:"disable_pagination";i:0;s:17:"thumbnail_quality";s:3:"100";s:19:"thumbnail_watermark";s:1:"0";s:20:"ngg_triggers_display";s:5:"never";}s:8:"order_by";s:9:"sortorder";s:15:"order_direction";s:3:"ASC";s:10:"exclusions";a:0:{}s:13:"container_ids";a:1:{i:0;i:37;}s:22:"excluded_container_ids";a:0:{}s:9:"sortorder";a:0:{}s:10:"entity_ids";a:0:{}s:7:"returns";s:8:"included";s:20:"maximum_entity_count";s:3:"500";s:6:"source";s:9:"galleries";s:12:"display_type";s:35:"photocrati-nextgen_basic_thumbnails";s:4:"slug";N;s:8:"id_field";s:2:"ID";}
Which, as you can see contains the C:\ path again. I'm 100% positive this wasn't in the database a while ago and repeated the process with the same result (corrected this, waited a minute and it appeared again). Is it possible that this is pulled e.g. from some file?
You can follow the steps mentioned below:
In the wp-admin, go to "Gallery" -> "Other options" then, Click to "Lightbox effects" tab and Click "Show advanced settings" there, you'll find option to change the stylesheet and javascript urls. Change from 'localhost' to your baseurl or ( 127.0.0.1 ). Then save. Thats all.
Let me see if i can help.
Warning : do not try on production, get a dev or appropriate local version running. Also -- can't remember using NextGen, so my advice comes from a desire to do "best" practice in WP.
Easy try : kill cache if used such as JetPack or similar.
Regrading the _transient - should be able to kill -- this link Can I remove transients in the wp_options table of my WordPress install? seems to be dialed in. So if there is a cached element in the mix...bingo.
Next thing is the C:\...stuff rendered in the page source / html? If so, how is it rendered in the page (HTML please)? In other words, what part of the execution is writing C:\... to the page and why? WP has a bad habit of adding the site to the link (grr!). For example image src attribute will have the ``http://``` :
<img src="http://example.com/uploads/whatev..."
And this is written in the wp_posts table (fun migration issues esp if you change url) - so there is a slim possibility that the gallery info with the C drive ref is in the post or similar.
iD10t check: no config setting you missed in gallery? I hope there is not a 3rd party server/storage as #Hareesh mentioned!
Desperation (done this a few times) : dump the MySQL, get a large text editor and search for the string. Remember that weird stuff could be escaped as a " may turn into \" or the use of alternative "safe" quotes. See what can be learned.
Always an option : reinstall in a new WP site and see what/how things go.
If I think of anything else I will add it, but I just spilled how I would try to dissect the issue. GOOD LUCK.
You can use a search and replace tool to replace all C:/... instances with the correct ones.
But be sure to make a full DB backup beforehand, in case something breaks...
I see a message This type of folder does not support ordering when viewing the News or Events folder. My understanding is that items contained in such folder, their position order can not be set arbitrarily. Only alphabetical order for their IDs is applied.
From ZMI, I see News and Events folders are of ATFolder type, everything seems the same with the regular folder I just create. What makes such difference? And what is the rationale behind this?
Edit: My bad that Info message in the above image is enabled by wildcard.foldercontents, which I thought due to Plone 4.3.2. However, the issue remains that position order can not be set arbitrarily. The following image attached to illustrate this.
PS: I ever delete the News folder, create a regular folder named news, this way I can set item position order arbitrarily. However, I find the Calendar Portlet within that folder is not working right. The issue happens when I click to switch months. The URL link will be out of its context, I mean, not staying in the news folder. Maybe this is not related to the folder ordering behavior, anyway, just for your reference.
For some reason Plone is shipping with the news and events folders being unorderable.
>>> news = site.news
>>> news.getOrdering()
<plone.folder.unordered.UnorderedOrdering object at 0x112e434d0>
I consider this a bug in plone's initial site installation.
Plone core actually explicitly sets the folder to unordered: https://github.com/plone/Products.CMFPlone/blob/4.3.x/Products/CMFPlone/setuphandlers.py#L250
I don't understand why. I'll change it if there aren't any objections...
I am pretty new to Sharepoint.
I need to customize some Sharepoint Masterpages (the background color, the font type and a few other css requeriments).
Considering I have available the following files: v4.master, default.master and two more pages which are content pages of default.master, plus the COREv4.css file.
I know I should create a copy of one of those master pages (I am not sure which tho) and customize it changing the CSS linked to it). The following questions come in regards of this:
1) The custom CSS file should be a modified copy of the COREv4.CSS or just another CSS file with the desired styles?
2) How do I create/link the customized CSS file for the modified page via Site Settings?. How/Where should I save the new file?.
3) As for the copy of v4.master, How do I load it to "replace" the original one for the site?.
4) The system is built upon Sharepoint 2010. That ensures that the page to have the modified CSS would be a v4.master copy only?.
Thank you for the insight as always.
**Update**
Hi,
I managed to solve the problem getting a general idea with the pdf manual provided, your suggestions and some extra steps I will describe briefly:
1) To place my custom css file I put it in the folder: C:\Program Files\Common Files\Microsoft Shared\Web Server Extensions\14\TEMPLATE\LAYOUTS\3082\STYLES
2) I opened the site to be customized with Sharepoint Designer 2010.
3) I clicked on the option Main Pages/Master Pages, and selected the page to be v4.master page, copied and pasted it. Then I renamed it right clicking on it, selecting "Rename" and typed the new name, after doing that I right clicked one more and selected "Set page as main default page".
4) To edit the contents of the page I right clicked once more and selected the option "Edit content in advanced mode", right before the head tag ended I copied and pasted:
<SharePoint:CssRegistration name="customname.css" runat="server" After="core4.css"/>
Note that "customname.css" is my css file. Then I clicked on the floppy disk icon on the upper left side of the screen to save.
5) After doing that I used Chrome HTML/CSS Analyzer, inspecting the original (and now copied) master page to browse on the zones that needed customization in order to identify the class names/ids/element types that managed the styles to be changed. Once identified I only added to them the properties that required change, EG:
//Webparts Alternate Highlighted Rows
div#ctl00_MSO_ContentDiv table.ms-viewlsts tbody
tr.ms-alternatingstrong{ background-color:#F7FAF4 }
table.ms-listviewtable.ms-basictable tbody
tr.ms-alternatingstrong.ms-itmhover{ background-color:#F7FAF4 }
I mostly did this by myself by trial and error with Chrome Analyzer but I also helped the task using the Chart found here (http://sharepointexperience.com/csschart/csschart.html), tho at some point going thru it turned a bit tricky and I decided to do it by myself as I mentioned. In the process I repeatedly added more styles to the custom file and then overwrote it on the server location to refresh the page/pages to see how it was looking, this till the end of the process.
Thanks for your help, I hope this serves as a guide for anyone that needs it. If you have questions let me know.
You can create a new master page from the scratch or modify the existing one.
Please have a look at this link it may help you to get answers of your questions
http://www.rdacorp.com/wp-content/uploads/ASP-NET-Master-Pages-and-SharePoint.pdf
It's not advised to modify files of SharePoint.
Better to create new master page file, specify all CSS and script you want inside and install this with feature.
What version of SharePoint do you have? SharePoint 2010 Server or Foundation? Cause with server version you can brand your master page in a cool way:
see this link
Microsoft has a good introductory article on how you can/should do this.
