I'm building a CMS solution using Umbraco 7 version. I have a requirement to add a workflow before content getting published to the site. Something similar to Content Creator creates a blog post -> send for Editor approval and once the editor approves it contents getting published to the public site.
Draft-> Send for Approval(to an Editor)-> Approve -> publish.
I know Umbraco has workflow feature for the Forms. Is there any way to integrate a workflow to the back office content publishing? Any thoughts or workarounds to achieve this??
Yes, there is a simple approval workflow built in:

It looks like it should cover your needs, though. If not, you could take a look at Plumber: https://our.umbraco.com/packages/backoffice-extensions/plumber-workflow-for-umbraco/

I have a JIRA server installed on my server I would like to add a javascript to all pages. any idea how?
I could not change any jsp file it seems that all are compiled could not be modified.
If hacky solutions don't make you feel uncomfortable, you might be able to use the "Announcement Banner" to achieve this. You can insert html/css/javascript there and it will be displayed on each page in JIRA.
There's an example available here.
The "Announcement Banner" documentation is available here.
Note that this only works on JIRA Server. On JIRA Cloud the Announcement Banner only accepts text or wiki format.
Like the title says, how can I customize the web dashboard in TFS 2012? I have created my own Work Item Type and would like a shortcut on the home page of Team Web Access. I am using the default Team Web Access page and I would just like to have a shortcut button immediately on the front page instead of in a dropdown, which is where it's contained now.
Thanks!
There is no supported way to do this. In TFS 2015 they have the concept of Web Extensions, but that is only for specific extension points which doesn't include changing the home page.
You can do it in an unsupported manner, but I wouldn't recommend it. You can find the ASPX/CSS/JS files on the server that TFS uses for the web site and hack away at them. I've known people that have done this before. But there are probably repercussions when it comes time to upgrade.
For posterity, I've found a dirty solution to do this without cloning the website and gutting it (as described here: http://awaitwisdom.com/how-to-extend-tfs-team-web-access/). Note that this solution is really dirty and may not fit your project needs.
The solution works by swapping the default work item options (based on the process template you are using).
Use WITADMIN to export your Categories into an XML. Find a work item currently on the front page that you're okay with swapping out for the work item you want to be on the front page. Change "DEFAULTWORKITEMTYPE" to "WORKITEMTYPE" in the tags. Add a new entry: and it should show up as one of the shortcut buttons on your home page.
I highly recommend doing your modifications with Microsoft TFS Power Tools 2012.
As a security measure, I am trying to remove the admin UI from an Umbraco 7 site without affecting the front end of the site. I have tried deleting both Umbraco and Umbraco_Client folders (I seem to remember this was how you removed a pre Umbraco 7 site) but the front end of the site errors due to various files that are now missing.
In an ideal scenario I would like to update the content from a staging server and import the database back into the live site, but also I would like to avoid solving this with folder permissions.
Can anyone offer me some advice on the best way to remove the admin UI safely?
Are you trying to have a separation of environment between content entry and delivery? Not sure if you've seen it but this discussion on the Umbraco forum has some suggestions (but no ideal solutions in my opinion) for that
http://our.umbraco.org/forum/developers/extending-umbraco/33337-Creating-a-content-editing-and-content-delivery-environment
You could always just do some URL restriction on the server but there's no ideal way as far as I can see

I created a web application by using HTML, JS, JQuery, and some Jquery plugins. Now I want to integrate it into Zendesk. Can I use it like just copy all my files and paste it into zendesk zip file ? Or Do I have to re-code entire thing to make it work for ZenDesk ?
I checked the examples in online, they didn't mentioned anywhere about reusing the apps that already developed in Zendesk.
I am currently doing some fairly extensive Zendesk integration. If you are referring to customisation on the Agent Portal side then it will have to be a Zendesk App under strict Zendesk adopted frameworks jquery is included (http://developer.zendesk.com/documentation/apps/). If in the customer facing Help Center you can simply go into there on screen editor and paste your html, js, etc into the relevant sections see (https://support.zendesk.com/entries/22618341)
Good luck,
Tris
If you want to integrate your app to Zendesk as an Agent App, you might consider the chance of using within an iframe.
Note that the url to which the iframe is pointing to must be served as HTTPS. Otherwise, it won't work.
EDIT:
As of version 2.0 of ZAF (Zendesk Application Framework), it's easy to integrate any webpage. In v2.0, you aren't restricted to any technology or environment.
I'm trying to make use of the razor engine in a SharePoint 2013 Web Part. This, I read, shouldn't be too difficult since SharePoint 2013 Visual Web Parts can be built using .NET Framework 4.0
I'm simply not sure of where to begin to do this. I've seen an article on uploading the .cshtml file onto a document library and referencing the document library in the Web Part, but it is a bit unclear.
Does anyone have an idea of how I can start? Or point me to a step-by-step guide to achieve what I am after.
What my end goal is: Take a piece of an MVC application, customize it and make it a Web Part. I need to be able to modify or access SharePoint content on that site which is why I cannot use an App Part.
Okay.
First install the Office Development Templates from
http://www.microsoft.com/visualstudio/eng/office-dev-tools-for-visual-studio
This will give you the following template selection on reopening Studio
Then navigate to wherever EwsManagedApi32.msi is and enter the following command in an elevated prompt -
EwsManagedApi32.msi addlocal="ExchangeWebServicesApi_Feature,ExchangeWebServicesApi_Gac"
Now your templates are usable and the one you want is "VS2012 Web Part".
Now, by default this will add an ASP.NET project, which is not what you want, so manually delete the ASP.NET project, add an MVC one, highlight the SharePoint project in Solution Explorer, hit F4, and select the MVC project in the "Web Project" dropdown at the bottom of the properties.
And there you go. One controller per web part, sorted.
I am sharing link SharePoint MVC webpart that uses Knock out framework using MVC for SharePoint. It has step by step instructions which might help you.
Hope this will be a good starting point
