My question is simmalar to questions/10369967/orchard-cms-how-to-add-media-picker-field-to-anew-module I've created a new content part, that has a select list, a text box and ... I want to include a media picker filed. I have added this to the content part with Bertrand Le Roy's suggestion of: ContentDefinitionManager.AlterPartDefinition("Product", builder => builder.WithField("ProductImage", fieldBuilder => fieldBuilder .OfType("MediaPickerField") .WithDisplayName("Product Image"))); However I've no idea of how to show this in my custom editor View I'm sure there should be something easy like

I am trying to perform a simple join between two different tables using the Orchard HQL API. The problem is that one of the tables is not a ContentPartTable. Is this possible?? Here is what it would look like in regular SQL: Select * From ItemPartRecord Join ItemRecord On ItemRecord.ItemId = ItemPartRecord.ItemId Where ItemRecord.Price Between 1000 and 10000 How exactly could I go about doing this? If anyone is wondering how to do this: //Join the non content part table var defaultHqlQuery = query as DefaultHqlQuery; var fiJoins = typeof(DefaultHqlQuery).GetField("_joins", BindingFlags

I needed to tap into a list of activities in Orchard CMS; unpublished activity being one of the requirements. I have looked and found out that Orchard default Workflow activity list doesn't have a unpublished activity. I have built a module that add my own custom Workflow Activities. I have had no problem creating activities and making them work but I have no idea how to bind one of these with an event. Even if I copy the publish activity that is found in the default activity folder of Workflow module, the copied activity doesn't get bind to any event. How can I make it so that my activity

This question might be slightly subjective, but I am unsure where else it would be better suited. I have used Orchard on a number of projects where the server was Windows Server based - integrating with AD, SQL etc to provide a MVC based portal - like stealing candy from a toddler! I have been exploring MonoTouch recently, and installed Orchard on OSX under ModMono as per http://docs.orchardproject.net/Documentation/Running-Orchard-on-Mono . It all seems to run fine, and fast, but I am unsure whether to back this on a commercial venture. I have always used MySQL or MSSQL as the DB, whereas my

I am working on a module for Orchard, and I just want to know how to include a css file. I have done the following with no result: Added a folder "Styles" to the root of my module and included a stylesheet and a Web.config file like in this question. And I have seen this but that's not what I am looking for. EDIT: Ok, solution: When I started working on Orchard I created a new module by just creating a new project in Orchard.Web/Modules folder, but as I read here , my Views/Web.config file has to include some orchard base things what mine didn't because I did not create the module using

In Orchard, how is a module developer able to learn how "joins" work, particularly when joining to core parts and records? One of the better helps I've seen was in Orchard documentation , but none of those examples show how to form relations with existing or core parts. As an example of something I'm looking for, here is a snippet of module service code taken from a working example: _contentManager .Query<TaxonomyPart>() .Join<RoutePartRecord>() .Where(r => r.Title == name) .List() In this case, a custom TaxonomyPart is joining with a core RoutePartRecord . I've investigated the code, and I

I am currently working on a site to allow users to search through a custom product catalog. I have been looking around and would love to leverage Orchard CMS to help me develop this site. I have currently gone through Ron Petersons youtube series on custom Orchard Modules and the Skywalker blog series . I feel like my goal is possible, but I'm looking for some validation on whether my strategy will work within the Orchard framework. This is my current situation: I have an default Orchard configuration pointing to a SQL DB (named Product-Orchard) I have a custom DAL that points to another SQL
