I'm working on a project that will use Umbraco for CMS capability, but also has a fairly simple ecommerce requirement. I'm aware of Commerce4Umbraco, are there others? Or, should I look elsewhere for simple e-commerce functionality. Would be nice to use the same platform for CMS and e-commerce... stuck with Umbraco though. ...
I'm trying to install Umbraco locally on Vista (IIS7) and ASP.NET35 - I have used the web.config for IIS7 and aspnet35 shown on the umbraco forums but still getting this IIS error. HTTP Error 500.19 - Internal Server Error The requested page cannot be accessed because the related configuration data for the page is invalid. Detailed Er...
I'd like to add my own section to the umbraco dashboard so that I can integrate my own admin piece to the existing login/admin structure. Is this possible without editing and recompiling the umbraco source itself? Is it recommended? If so, does anyone have resources to get started doing this? ...
Running Umbraco 4x I am creating a helper method in C# that I can recursively call to create child categories of a particular node (category). The method takes a parentNodeID as a parameter. I need to retrieve the properties of that parent node. I know I can use the static method Node.GetCurrent() but I'm looking for something like Nod...
Is there a more direct way in umbraco to iterate nodes based on a list of IDs than this? $currentPage/ancestor-or-self::root/descendant::node[contains($idList, @id)] I'm just curious. It seems akward to traverse up the tree from the currentPage node to find the root before traversing back down. ...
I am trying to get the number of months between two dates in my xslt file like so: <xsl:variable name="now" select="umbraco.library:CurrentDate()"/> <xsl:value-of select="umbraco.library:DateDiff('2010-12-01', $now, 'm')" /> Unfortunately, this seems to give me the number of minutes between the two dates rather than the number of mont...
I have successfully created and integrated successful user control in the Umbraco dashboard. The page begins with a search control that returns a list of editable items. In my user control I am having issues with directing the link for the edit page. I'm trying to link directly to it. Here's that code: <asp:hyperlinkfield datana...

I'm working on a site managed by Umbraco. I need to store data about images and clients. I don't think there is any way I can store that data in the existing tables. Is there any reason I shouldn't add the tables I'll need to the Umbraco database, rather than creating a separate DB? I like Umbraco so far but the documentation is a ...
I have a custom user control that i use in a page in Umbraco CMS... since upgrading to version 4, it seems this user control wont work any longer. The user control contains an ajax uploader control (support request post here: http://cutesoft.net/forums/53732/ShowThread.aspx#53732), which allows users to upload images, then displays th...
I have a user control in which I need to return child nodes based on parentID. I am able to get the parentID, but don't know the syntax for returning child nodes. ...
I need to set up access to media files with the following structure: A media folder is designated as belonging to a specific member group. Then, a sub-folder below that needs to be available to a subset of members from the parent's member group. Any thoughts on how this can best be accomplished? I'll render the actual file download links...
I've setup several areas in the dashboard.config file of my umbraco site to extend the admin. However, not all users should have access to these tabs. Is there a way to restrict access? I can only see how to restrict access from a particular section (e.g. Settings or Developer). ...
I have developed a usercontrol that I would like to embed in Umbraco. The process seems straightforward, but I may be trying something that can't be done. My usercontrol is dependent on several other usercontrols. When I try to Browse Properties in the "main" usercontrol I get the error below. I have copied all the .ascx files to the...
I'm developing a user control that will be embedded in Umbraco. It's been a long slog but I've got it mostly working. At this point I have a template in Umbraco that refers to my web control as a marco. So far so good. It looks great in Firefox, but breaks in IE7. The weird part is that the control looks perfect in both IE7 and Fire...

I work for a large local government organisation who are about to embark on using SharePoint to replace our ageing intranet with an all-singing all-dancing collaborative site. The focus for the intranet will be replacing random files, content pages and documents that are spread across the organisation with a SharePoint installation which...
Umbraco is taking: <img alt="Your Title - for example Mr., Mrs., Ms." src="../media/21283/q16x16.gif" width="16" height="15"/> And turning it into <img alt="" src="/media/21283/q16x16.gif" width="16" height="15" rel="16,15"/> If I alter the alt tag after this processing then the alt tag is saved. ...
I am on a shared host and whilst in development (umbraco) I think it would be easier to use VistaDB then package up to install to SQL Server. However, I have already started using SQL Server. Is there a way to migrate my SQL Server (2008) database to VistaDB. I assume the schema is identical but I need a way/tool to move the data to Vist...
