I have created a Master Page in Sharepoint 2007. I am having difficulty with the main content. I have tried putting the content into the PlaceHolder Main but the content will not render on the page, the content consists of images (which I will eventually link to other pages). If I go outside the PlaceHolder and create a div and div id and connect the div id to my css it will render on the master page. That brings up a totally different issue, not only do the images render on the master page, but they also show up in all of my document libraries.
I have spent many hours trying to figure this out. I do not want to change any application pages. I have tried to apply the changes to the master page and not the rest of the site, I could not get that to work. I have tried moving the content to different Placeholders and the images still render in the libraries. Someone please help me to understand why the images from the master page show up in all of the document libraries. I would really really appreciate it.
Thank You.
Standard ASP.NET page generating at work here. The content in the master page content zone is replaced with the content in the page layout content zone. Without changing the application page you are stuck.
It sounds like you should be editing the application page anyway (because you don't want it to appear in all document libraries)

I am running an instance of Umbraco 6.1.x and it has started throwing 404 on published pages.
My page structure is as follows,
Content
Home
About
Course
...
Component
Home
About
Course
Where component holds all resources and modules (HTML sections and stuff) for a page and using a partial view macro I dynamically load all components at runtime for a specific page.
We are facing an issue where we get 404 on every page after a full republish once we hit the HomePage. Before hitting home page they are all fine, but the moment we hit the homepage they are all throwing 404. By overriding the handlers I found out that they are hitting ~/umbraco/RenderMvc!
Any idea what can cause this?
Thanks in advance.
EDIT:
It is actually throwing:
No template exists to render the document at url '/'
considering the aforementioned scenario.
I have proper allowed template setup and property on nodes are showing the correct template associated with the respective items. Not sure why it's losing template info. I can force it to load under correct template using ?altTemplate=templateName.
Some pointers, we have a view in Views/Shared folder (apart from macro partials) tied to a surface controller.
One thing I would like to say is, we are using nested (library.RenderMacroContent with Umbraco markup) in our partial views and I have realized that the whole page throws 404 if there's a page with a link to the broken page which is broken (i.e. page got re-created and on t==e of the components is holding a link to the page with previous id). Suggestions?
did you get to the bottom of this? We're having exactly the same problem at the moment, on the same version of Umbraco.
I've noticed that when it happens, the umbraco.config becomes either corrupt or rolls back to a much, much earlier version, with all sorts of attributes missing. This lead us to believe it was a sync issue between the DB and umbraco.config.
We initially thought we had solved it by deleting App_Data > TEMP > ExamineIndex and recycling the app pool etc. Maybe give this ago, as it fixed it for a while for us, but alas, the demon has reared its ugly head once more. We are still in a full on dev stage though, so the constant changing may be complicating it further for us - perhaps it will be a fix for you.
If you have any more info, or even a fix, it would be greatly appreciated.
Cheers
EDIT:
Ok, I think I've solved this now, but only time will tell. Try emptying your recycle bin & then republish entire site.
I managed to consistently recreate the bug using IIS SEO site analysis. Each time I did this, the log threw up an error 'cannot find node id xyz', turns out that (and other) nodes were in the recycle bin. Upon emptying it the errors stopped. Good luck!
I'm setting up a new Umbraco site to replace an older ASP.Net site.
The old site is riddled with old content that isn't linked to anymore. I want to prevent the same thing from happening on the new Umbraco site.
Is there a good way of finding unused items in Umbraco's Content folder (not Templates or Document Types)?
If that's not feasible, is there a way to keep content owners from creating a bunch of content pages and abandoning them instead of deleting them?
It's an interesting question, but from an SEO point of view an old page of content has plenty of power & I wouldn't delete it if possible.
I don't know of an umbraco package that will tell you which pages don't have links - but Google will tell you. If you want to know what links to www.example.com/oldpage.html then type the following into Google:
link:www.example.com/oldpage.html
(https://support.google.com/webmasters/answer/55281?hl=en)
I wouldn't delete old content (unless it is now plainly wrong) I'd keep all the old content & tidy it away:
Create a folder under home called something like 'archive'
Move all your dead content there
Use a 301 redirection package or change urlrewriting.config in case there are any external links to these dead pages as the old urls will now return 404 errors
Make sure that the sitemap contains links to these new archive pages
You will now have cleaned up the structure, but without losing any SEO value.
Have been bashing my head against the wall for a good day and a half now. Did everyone abandon old fashioned page structures to go to jQuery Mobile?
I have a webpage, tracks legislation. Main navbar goes as such:
/bills/list, /legislators/list, /committees/list
Where each link is rewritten into
index.php?category=$1&detail=$2
so /bills/list translates to
index.php?category=bills&detail=list
But when I load a page from the navbar, using an a href tag, the pages load all nice and easy using the AJAX loader, but the newly loaded pages 1. don't run scripts, and 2. don't display any formatting. This is a problem.
All the suggestions I have seen say to .bind something or .refresh or .trigger without any context of where that goes, and everything I have tried in that vein has frustrated me to no end.
Please help! And by the way, if I just data-ajax=false everything it works perfectly. But I want the quick loading that ajax gives! I just don't understand how it works and there are really no good pointers on the web I could find.
Code in this pastebin: http://pastebin.com/9jMxV0B6
You can see some artifacts of my struggling to get the thing working.
From what I gather, you shouldn't call new pages via a href, but then why the hell does jqm use href's for its nav menu? Is that supposed to call a function or something?
"But when I load a page from the navbar, using a basic old fashioned a href tag, the pages load all nice and easy using the AJAX loader, but the newly loaded pages 1. don't run scripts, and 2. don't display any formatting. This is a problem."
That happens because JQM ignores all the headers in all other pages besides the first page that loads. So if you want to do any changes to the page use page events, place them In first page.
I had problems understanding it also. Here is a link to my previous post that explains it a bit: How do I enable onload in jQuery mobile (open page both from link & load)?
Hope it clears some things for you. My recommendation for you is to do two simple pages and test simple URL functionality.
This is my first question on SO so i'll try and make it as clear and as understandable as possible.
I've recently started messing around with Angular JS and currently I am working on a mobile app using Angular JS and jQuery Mobile. So far I've not had any major problems and so far have no had a need to consider any external libraries for integration (such as the angular js + jquery mobile adapter). I've created a multi-page app (currently only two pages) and used separate controllers for each page (login + content page). The app itself is simple, it's just a list keeping app and i've created a quick jsfiddle based on the ui aspect of the content page: http://jsfiddle.net/G7JNV/4/
The app works as expected from the jsfiddle. However because the content page is a page in the same html document (index.html) as the login page, to navigate to the content page the url becomes:
.../index.html#mainpage
(mainpage being the page for the list keeper)
Thats when things start getting funny. When the url is like above, when adding an item to the list, the item is initially unstyled (it doesn't look like it's part of the list) but the css styling for that item comes back after adding another item. Of course the next item is then unstyled (and so on).
If you want to see what the issue looks like:
Everything however works fine if i don't have the hash page as part of the URL (I tested this by turning the two page app into just one page for the content so that .../index.html goes straight to the content page). The css is applied to the dynamic content fine as one would expect.
Of course I have no idea why it's doing this and I suspect that it's something to do with how angular and jqm treat the hash anchor in the URL (but bare in mind I don't have much experience in both Angular JS nor jQuery Mobile).
Any help from any of the more experienced Angular JS (and jQuery Mobile) users would be greatly appreciated!
You should be creating a directive that encapsulates the list and the logic that you have for it.
As suggested in the comments to your questions, a timeout can work. If you're having issues with the element "flashing" or "flickering", you can use the ngCloak directive to deal with this.
You may also want to check out the $locationProvider configuration in your app and turn off HTML5 mode or set the hash prefix.
I added a new ContentPlaceHolder (HeadContent) right below the Title so that I can add page-specific css and js files. But when I create a new View using the master page, it puts the default text of the page layout to have the HeadContent open/close tags at the end of the page. Unfortunately, I visually just see it as the first, second and third tags and start typing in my page's html into the last tag. But this isn't the BodyContent place holder because it is the second one. I have to go back and copy/paste them into the correct place. Ugh. Just for kicks, I scrambled all the tags around in the master page just to see what would happen in the view. Sure enough, VS.NET ignores their order in the master page and reorders them the same way everytime.
Why isn't VS just ordering the place holder tags in the same order as in my master page? Actually, how do I make it stop and just do it in the order I have in my master page?
What visual studio is doing (I assume) is loading the MVC View Content Template. I assume the reason all the contents are out of order from your master page is that Visual Studio Extensiblity loads the template then adds any ContentPlaceHolders that are not in the template after the template data.
You can see what the templates look like by going to your Visual Studio file in your Program files then goto Common7\IDE\ItemTemplates\CSharp\Web\MVC2.
There is also a folder for VB. In any case you can open the zip files located in that directory and drill down till you get to the .aspx page and you'll see what VS is inserting into your project when you do a Add New/View.
