I've looked at the Umbraco Projects page but can't see anything relevant there. I would like to be able to create surveys (add questions and answers) and store survey results somewhere. I realise this isn't rocket science and I could just build something myself, but if there's something already out there that would allow me to do this, I...
I'm having real problem with caching in a macro. I've set the cache period to 0 but still a dropdownlist that returns a list of other items in the content tree won't update until I force the application to recycle e.g. touch the web.config file. The Macro uses umbraco.content.Instance.XmlContent.SelectSingleNode to select a parent node ...
I have installed umbraco cms and I'm just trying to figure it out where are stored the "media" files uploaded . Basically I can see them delivered through a kind of url rewrite on the web like http://domain.com/media/4554/file.extension. However I would like to know where are actually located the files on the disk . I would appreciate a...
I've installed Umbraco 4.5 in a virtual directory on my web server (server/cms). When I edit web.config and set umbracoUseDirectoryUrls = "true", the URLs generated don't contain the virtual directory (i.e. server/page instead of server/cms/page). How can I get umbracoUseDirectoryUrls to work with an instance of Umbraco that lives in a...
I need to say; I'm pretty green in xslt so, most likely, that's the main problem; nonetheless been on it for hours and can't get it. I want to fill a column on my main template with the 5 most recent newsitems. These newsitems should be shown regardless of the currentpage. I've tried this: <xsl:template match="/"> <xsl:for-each s...
I have an Umbraco website that I have to restart every morning in order for the users to be able to publish content. Is there any solutions available that will help me get around doing this each morning? ...
Hello guys, This is simple xslt, that shows the login status of the current user. Everything worked fine on development server, but once we've setup app on production, umbraco.librarty.IsLoggedOn() started always to return false. Application uses method umbraco.libraty.IsLoggedOn() from .NET code and from there it returns proper value,...
Hi, I've created a simple .NET usercontrol for logging into a members area on a website (the site is powered by Umbraco and uses their membership provider). It worked fine until I changed the submit button on the log-in usercontrol to an imagebutton. Now it doesn't seem to submit anything - it just reloads the page when clicked and do...
I am trying to use YAF with Umbraco. The newest version out changed enough where the old integration methods don't seem to work. I have gotten everything fairly far on my own but I have hit a brick wall with this error: Unable to load one or more of the requested types. Retrieve the LoaderExceptions property for more information. Des...
Hi, We're using msdeploy to deploy our sites to various environments from our continuous integration server. When the artifacts are deployed manually to the dev site from the command line. The deployment only pushes changed files and is very quick. However, when we push to our test or live environments the deployment copies a lot of f...
I have content that I've structured as follows in the content section in umbraco: Items under the content node that have a folder icon are Content Pages. A content page can have another content page as a child or a content section which are the items with doc with image icon. I have a settings section that I've structured as follows:...
Hi this morning i moved a .net website from our local server to live(not pre-complied). when i go to the url the sites hosted on the browser starts loading the site and has been doing this for the last hour. I presumed it is compiling the site and its just taking a while because of the size of the site. Is there any way to check if this ...
I've been asked to find out what several of the default icons in Umbraco mean, and if their meaning is somehow connected to being unable to move a node from one folder to another. Is there a handy, dandy list glossary somewhere of what all of these mean? The Umbraco forums talk incessantly about custom icons, but no one explains what the...

Hi, I'm trying to retreive the previous node in a for-each using the preceding-sibling axis, a filter and an indexer to find it. The problem is, I only want the first item that matches the XPath in the selector however, I seem unable to apply both the filter and the indexer. The indexer seems to override the filter so I always get the ...
Does anybody know how to easily duplicate users along with their permissions in Umbraco? It appears that the only way to set permissions is on a user-by-user basis which is not a particularly usable approach to user management. ...

Hi, I'm stuck with a quite obscure problem. I have master page that contains a login control. One of the content pages, in this case the Home-page, contains an Ajax UpdatePanel. After I added the updatepanel the login control stopped working. When I click the Login-button the page is reloaded but I am not authenticated. In fact the OnAu...
Hi All I am new to Umbraco and have inherited an existing site 3-4 years old. One of our users has just come to me and asked why her members only PDFs are freely available if Googled by name, but their containing folder in Umbraco is not - ie she has to log in to get to the folder. Within the Umbraco Admin system I can see how to set p...
Hi, I am rather new to umbraco and currently building a web site for my employer. This site will need to support multiple languages. My question is how this should be implemented with umbraco. I am looking at the following approaches: Create the site structure once and entering different translations for each page. This is described ...
