I have a .NET method that adds a new member to my DB. It does this through an AJAX request. I have this working correctly, however I am having problems returning the correct response message so I can print the correct messages to the user. My method at the moment looks like this: public static string MemberRegister(int process) { //here we find form values posted to the current page HttpRequest post = HttpContext.Current.Request; //get values from ajax URL var name = post["name"]; var email = post["email"]; var username = post["username"]; var password = post["password"]; //check if email

I have inherited an Umbraco CMS project, the Umbraco instance and custom user controls exist on our test server as the initial build has been demo-ed to the client already. I now need to take this on, the initial build was done by a freelance dev before my time here and no documentation exists on set up, deployment, etc. The custom usercontrols were under source control and build ok, after a bit of bug fixing. I have followed the following to try and get an instance of the Umbraco install and custom controls working on my machine for developing against. http://slickjuanito.wordpress.com/2012

Is it possible to use an async action within an Umbraco SurfaceController (and UmbracoApiController) I tried the following code public async Task< ActionResult> HandleLogin(LoginViewModel model) { await Task.Delay(1000); return PartialView("Login", model); } and although it compiled correctly when the action is called the action seems to return as soon as the await is hit, and returns a string System.Threading.Tasks.Task`1[System.Web.Mvc.ActionResult] the controller of course inherits from SurfaceController and I wonder if this is the problem? If this is not possible, are there any workarounds

I have the following XSLT: <xsl:template match="/"> <div id="dokumentliste"> <xsl:variable name="alleNyheder" select="$currentPage//node" /> <xsl:for-each select="$alleNyheder"> <xsl:sort data-type="text" select="@createDate" order="descending" /> <xsl:if test="./data[@alias='manchet'] != ''"> <div class="newsitem"> <h2> <xsl:value-of select="./data[@alias='title']"/> </h2> <xsl:if test="./data[@alias = 'manchet'] != ''"> <div class="nyhedContent"> <p> <span class="dokumentListeDato"> <xsl:choose> <xsl:when test="./data[@alias='date'] != ''"> <xsl:value-of select="umbraco.library

I had the following in my Global.asax (Umbraco 4.7) Application_Start Application_EndRequest Application_Error Session_Start Session_End Now I have upgraded to Umbraco 6.0.3, which global.asax inherits from Umbraco.Web.UmbracoApplication Where do I put my event handlers (and what are the equivalent method names)? Aximili This is what I found so far. You can create your own class public class Global : Umbraco.Web.UmbracoApplication { public void Init(HttpApplication application) { application.PreRequestHandlerExecute += new EventHandler(application_PreRequestHandlerExecute); application

My newly deployed site is getting a 500 internal server error. I'm trying to deploy Umbraco to Azure. I've turned off custom errors but that doesn't help. Is there anyway to see the error that Azure is throwing? SOLVED I was able to edit my configuration and setup RDP into my web role. Once on the box I couldn't go to it via IP because I'm using the umbraco accelerator. There was a binding in IIS to go to 0.mydomain.com. If I used that I could see the page from the server and the error came up. For 500 errors, one good way is to turn diagnostics on and to look at the logs - both the

I have multiple domains pointing to one hosting location. I wish to establish one of the domains as my main domain and therefore I wish to perform a 301 redirect to this main domain whenever a user accesses my site from a secondary domain. For example: www.example.com This is my main domain. I want all other domains associated with my site to redirect to here. If a user comes in on: www.test.com or www.test.com/anypage etc. Then I want the user to be redirected to the example version of that page. How do I do this using the web.Config file of my application? The reason I ask is that usually my

I am trying to create an Umbraco 7 MVC application. In doing so, I want to be able to create custom controllers that manage data behind the scenes. Through my research, I found using the SurfaceController was the most successful. However, the route adds "/umbraco/surface/" to the page. For example, my Test Controller and View would look like "/umbraco/surface/Test". Is there a way to manage these routes and have it simply go to "/Test" without adding the Umbraco route to it? Any guidance on how to create custom controllers within Umbraco 7 would be helpful! this is what I have achieved in my

I work for a large local government organisation who are about to embark on using SharePoint to replace our ageing intranet with an all-singing all-dancing collaborative site. The focus for the intranet will be replacing random files, content pages and documents that are spread across the organisation with a SharePoint installation which will magically bring order to all of this. The decision to use SharePoint for the intranet has already been made. The CMS we use on our public website also needs replacing. I have proposed using UmbracoCMS, but due to the pending SharePoint implementation on
