Comments on: Custom Property: ShareIt

Hi Frederik,

Nice property, really like it!

Allthough we have experienced something strange:
When you go to edit mode for a page with a ShareIt property, after approx 1 minute you get a popup message “Error: Object doesn’t support property or method ‘ajaxSubmit’”.

This has something to do with EPiServer autosaving a draft version of the page.

Apperently the ShareIt property breaks the autosaving of the page. Removing the property also removes the message in edit mode.

Any ideas on this?

Thanks!

@Jan Sounds very strange, could you try by installing through NuGet? For NuGet you need a client as well, you can download it from nuget.org.

Cheers

Hi Frederik,

I retrieved the latest from EPiCode but still having issues.

1.) http://solutionsharepoint.local/en/Blogs/Dates/2011/4/test-page/

will share:

2.) http://solutionsharepoint.local/Templates/AlloyTech/Blog/Pages/Item.aspx?id=273

It should still be sharing url#1

I was able to fix it by using HttpContext.Current.Request.RawUrl instead of pageData.LinkURL from Helper.cs:GetExternalUrl()

Thanks again.

You’re the Man! I didn’t know how to use the PageLink. But now I know, thanks to you!

About version 1.2, how can I actually get it from nuget.episerver.com?
I have no experience with nuget and there’s no download link from this page http://nuget.episerver.com/en/OtherPages/Package/?packageId=FV.ShareIt (even when logged-in)

I’m assuming I need to download it by installing nuget and I just did. By not sure what to put in the source so it will detect the packages from nuget.episerver.com. Tried http://nuget.episerver.com and http://nuget.episerver.com/en/OtherPages/Package/?packageId=FV.ShareIt but it just resulted in an error.

Hi Jan
I’ve updated the code so it will work with query strings as well. Thanks for letting me know! You can either download the code from EPiCode or install it from nuget.episerver.com (version 1.2).

Hi Jan
Sorry, I haven’t looked any closer at the querystring bug. Hopefully I can do it this weekend. When it comes to having to set the value of the property, I usually put it on the start page or a container page and then use PageReference.StartPage and set the PageLink property to it, you can also set is as a dynamic property and inherit, or set the default value of the property.

Cheers

Hi Frederik,

Hope everything’s well. Had any luck with the bug? I just can’t get the actual URL displayed on the toolbar. I’m not sure what property I need to use.

One more thing…

The way it works right now is that you add a property on a pagetype and you modify the property on each page. This is really good if I only have a few pages but if I have for example 20 existing blog pages, I need to manually edit each page and configure the ShareIt icons.

Is there a way to set it up just one time and all references will be pointing to it instead?

Cheers,
Jan

@Jan return type would be string. But it’s much easier just using the EPiServer Property control for now. I’ll have a look at the bug you reported.

Also, I tested it on a page with query string:
http://mydomain.local/en/more/Video/?videoId=9

However the page Url it’s getting is:
http://mydomain.local/Templates/Masterpet/Pages/VideoPlayerPage.aspx?id=7001

which will result in an error because it’s not the proper page.

Any thoughts?

Thanks.

By the way, Planning to integrate the property via pagetypebuilder.
Which page type – data type mapping would I use?
