Link in document is wrong in Umbraco - umbraco

My umbraco is running with uBootstrap starter kit.
The home node's link to document is showing http://en.umbraco.local/. where does this value come from?
How can I change it to my domain name? Thanks.

If you right click on the home node and hit "culture and hostnames" you can add a different domain in there.

unable to register device via web page. Page does not follow tutorial

In the page below, it specifies that you can register your device in the left hand column of the page, under advanced options:
https://developers.google.com/assistant/sdk/guides/library/python/embed/register-device
This is no longer the case, the option is not there. Instead there is a backend option.
Is there any kind of web page to do this action at all?
Would prefer a graphical option to a command line one.
Ok. sorted this out.
My thanks to those who looked over this question. Basically I deleted the current projects and started again. the device model registration is right down (scroll right down to) the bottom of the page on the first screen after you have first created the project. Apparently you need to not skip this step, or navigate away from this page before you do the device creation.
after that everything went well and is up and running. Thanks again

Can /consoleText be made the default console page in Jenkins?

Is there any setting I can change in Jenkins to make /consoleText the default page for console outputs? Right now, I have to click on console, and then click on the View as plain text link to get this page.
PS: I'm open to "hack" suggestions, if there's no way to officially do this in Jenkins.
Edit: While I'd be perfectly happy with just making /consoleText as the default page, what would be even better would be to replace the View as plain text link with a View dynamic log link, so that I can access the console link too, in case I need it.
You can try the Sidebar-Link Plugin which will give you the ability to add side links on various Jenkins pages like the build, top level, etc.

Umbraco - Incorrect link to document when useDomainPrefixes = true

(To make this simpler - I've re-posted the first part of this question as a separate question, which has now been answered:)
Umbraco - Incorrect alternative link to document
Here's the full, original question:
On our website, we have the following structure:
sitename
-Global
-English
-UK
-English
for the Global > English page, the links to the page are showing as:
Link to document
/global/en/
Alternative Links
http://english
so the 'Link to document' is correct, but the alternative link isn't. On the UK > English page, I just get the correct 'Link to document'
On our development version, I've just turned on the useDomainPrefixes = true option in the umbracoSettings.config of of the site, and I've added a hostname for the top level 'sitename' node. Now I get the following as page links for the Global > English page:
Link to document
http://english/
Alternative Links
http://hostname/http://english/
http://english
I get the correct links for the UK > English page, showing the correct hostname in the URL like this:
Link to document
http://hostname/global/en/
I've tried re-publishing the entire root node (sitename), however I get an unusual timeout error. I've increased the timeout for the app pool, and for the session and the umbraco timeout in the web.config, however this is a different error probably related to the proxy server contacting the web server.
Is republishing the entire site the only fix? I've tried only publishing the sitename > Global node, which completes successfully, but doesn't fix the issue.
This is sometimes caused by setting the domains for the content nodes incorrectly. If you've right clicked and selected "Manage Hostnames" then you can get issues like this.
Remove all hostnames and see if everything works with UseDomainPrefixes=true.
I would reinstall from scratch and rebuild the site if the worst happens and you really cannot fix.

Umbraco - Incorrect alternative link to document

On our website, we have the following structure:
sitename

Link to document
/global/en/
Alternative Links

so the 'Link to document' is correct, but the alternative link isn't. On the UK > English page, I just get the correct 'Link to document'. I've tried publishing out the whole site but I can't as it times out (I've tried increasing all the timeouts, but it's taking an hour to publish so I get a strange network error), and just re-publishing the whole 'Global' node and sub-documents doesn't fix things. Any other way to fix this? Also what is the purpose of the 'Alternative Links' and how are these determined?
as I suggested in your original post, I set up a very basic Umbraco v6.1.2 instance (using NuGet in Visual Studio) with a single doc type and an identical top-level structure to what you have described.
So:
Set umbracoUseDirectoryUrls to true in the web.config
The doc type, called "BasicPage" has a single property called "umbracoUrlName". This allows you to overwrite the path created by Umbraco based upon the title of the node. I assume you already have that in your doc type.
I set both English nodes to have a umbracoUrlName of "en".
I added two hostnames to the Root node - "localhost" and "mobile.localhost"
I published the Root node and all following nodes
As you can see, both the "Link to document" and "Alternative links" are as expected.
I suspect you may be right that trying to get the site to publish may fix the issue, so you may have to publish the site in bits, working from branch to branch.
However, I would advise creating a test Umbraco instance as I have done and then comparing what you have.
Alternatively, you can of course remove the hostname settings altogether if the entire content structure is going to be served using the same hostnames as these can simply be controlled in IIS. Umbraco doesn't actually need to know about them unless you have separate distinct sites in the same content tree.

Open node in Umbraco programmatically

I have created a dashboard for an Umbraco site and I want to link from it to various node in the tree.
From what I can tell Umbraco uses editcontent.aspx?id={thenodeid} and javascript:opencontent({nodeid}).
Whenever I try to use these they always fail.
Does anyone know how to open a display a node in the Umbraco back end?
Like Tim Saunders said you really just need to target the correct iframe. The openContent function looks like this:
function openContent(id) {
parent.right.document.location.href = 'editContent.aspx?id=' + id;
}
So you need to target the 'right' iframe.
I've tested editContent.aspx?id=1234 on my Umbraco installation and it seems to work correctly.
I'm assuming you are replacing {thenodeid} with the actual node id you want?
Umbraco uses iFrames in the backend for the content tree and the content areas etc. This means that you do not always have full access to the Javascript libraries from the frame that you are in.
Therefore you may need to either include the library in the page you are working with or try and reference the method calls by walking up the dom.
I can't find any documentation for this so it may be a case of looking at the HTML source and working out what is going on.
