I have a fusion table with a map view. I'd like to add a link on the bottom of the map info window to be able to edit that specific record.
Is that possible?
You'd need to create the edit UI yourself using the Fusion Tables API. There's no built-in link that can pull the record itself for editing, although it's a nifty idea.

Is there an out of box way to manage data of custom tables in Umbraco back office ?
I will need to access data in MVC site pages. Want to use Umbraco back office for this and give a html table / gird like interface with data where user can do CRUD operations on data records.
how it can be done ? Is there a feature or datatype to support this ?
Please guide and help me.
Take a look at uSiteBuilder for Umbraco:

Also:
Document Type: a List View Type
Some info:

My situation is this:
I have one master fusion table with all data about all clients (with permissions only to me).
I created another table that will have limited info (with permission to my team)
I decided I need to collect another piece of information. I CAN add a column to the master table, but I can't find a way to now select the column for the limited views. The only option I can see is delete the very elaborate limited view, and re-do it from the beginning.
There has to be a better way! What am I missing?
Thanks :)
I think at the moment this can not be done, because it's not possible to change the definition of a view after it has been created. This would be a nice feature, though. You can request it on the project site ;)
All you can do now is create a new view. What exactly is "elaborate" about the current view? It shouldn't be too hard to "migrate" to a new one.
I'm brand new to rails, and have inherited an app I'm trying to make modifications to; it uses activeadmin - which seems nice, but is a bit opaque to me at the moment.
The show page - the page that shows a detailed, single record - doesn't seem to be generated by anything I can find. I found the file dealing with the list of all records, but can't find what's actually generating the details.
I need to add some custom info to this page that's not directly linked to the record in the database itself basically group of related resources.
What file am I looking for? Or do I need to create one somewhere? The listing page is in admin/users.rb
You want to edit admin/users.rb.
http://activeadmin.info/docs/6-show-screens.html
The above link documents how to customize the show page.
I have a web part which shows data in one of 3 different formats. The format is selected by clicking one of 3 buttons in the web part. This works fine.
A request has come through to store the last selected state so that the user does not always have to click their favourite view.
It seemed logical to define a Property and define Personalizable(PersonalizationScope.User) but this does not seem to work for most users as they only have Read rights for the page.
What is the best way forward here? Is Sharepoint the right place to store such info or should I be using my own storage?
Thanks
Using your own storage is an option but this means its some more development work for you. How about this option.
Modify your WebPart and add the option to the Web Part property.
Create a new permission level and add the following permission
Update Personal Web Parts - Update
Web Parts to display personalized
information.
This will make sure that users with read only access can only update webparts.
Step 2 will allow them to odify all webparts. You can modify each webpart and remove the following option for webparts which you dont want you users to edit.
Allow Editing in Personal View [Advanced]
This way you can lock all webparts except the one you want.
I'm working on an umbraco website just now and one of the requirements is to have a custom section in the back end that can be used to manage publish smaller micro-sites.
I have been able to create the new section and added some nodes to it. What I can't get to work is publishing them and making them viewable at the correct url.
As an example, say i have created a new section called microsite, inside that there is a folder called myportfolio. this should route to something like www.myumbracosite.com/microsite/myportfolio.
Does anyone know how to get this sort of thing working? Is it even possible to publish content from outsite of the main content section?
Any help would be greatly apprechiated.
Kind Regards

From my understanding the custom sections are for linking to custom databases or data somewhere that needs an interface.
That said, you can use UrlRewriting and an existing content page with a macro to do something like that.
If you had a page called microsite, then using UrlRewriting you could make the parameter passed in to microsite.aspx (a content page in Umbraco) be "myportfolio".
With a user control on the microsite template it could display some content from your external database (or wherever your custom section stores it).
Not sure that's what you're looking for...
Why are you trying to create a new section for more content? The current Umbraco content area has all kinds of permissions for both users and members. Are the microsites all in the same install of Umbraco?
Another option is that the custom section could simply be used as a setup wizard for the new sites. You could create new content and users in their normal places and just use the new section to create them. It's not too hard to create content from C#, so it would probably be the same as doing it from a user control.
Could you provide a little more info?
