What is the best way to reference another app in the visual query designer?
I am using the blog app and I created a second app to list the tags that are used in the main blog app. This way when the app goes to a detail page of a post, I can still have the tags listed on the website without the view changing automatically. I set up my blog tags app with a visual query that list all of the tags used in the main app. Everything was working fine in development.
The problem that I have run into is that when I move the app to a production site the AppId was different than the one I was currently using and development. Now, the tags app is showing an error and I am not able to get into the settings to change the app ID of the visual query to the proper one in order to get the information needed. Is there a better way that I should be handling this?
This sounds like the right way to do it - your main issues is getting into the admin-ui when the template you have shows an error.
I suggest that you quickly rename your current template (so it's not used till you fix the bug) and create an empty template with the original name. This way you can go to the normal settings.
Another option is to switch into dnn-edit-mode, and use the black-dnn buttons to get to app-admin.

I am currently working on the setup page for my custom MS Teams Connector.
For inspiration, I was looking into other companies and one particular thing caught my attention.
Teams usually has at the bottom 2 buttons, like here in my setup page:
I have no Problem communicating with them using the #microsoft/teams-js client SKD and could make my page work like it is now. But I got curious how to do it with custom buttons like other Companies.
For example Trello:
Like you can see they moved the buttons up and also have a login button.
I also need to add authentication form my Connector, so I was wondering if its possible to archive a similar layout for my Connector.
For the Setup page I am using web app created with create react app
So my questions are:
Is this possible using react?
If yes how is it done?
I could not find much documentation regarding this topic.
The behavior is by design. Quite a while back we started giving developers more control in the tab configuration flow and allow them to render their own button within the iframe. Everything within that task module is now controlled by the app.
I am using C1 3 and am having problems with the preview pane.
The C1 site uses master pages for templates, and works correctly when published. However, it is not displaying correctly in the preview pane. It visually appears to be ignoring CSS settings.
This site was copied from an original install, on another sever, that works correctly.
Any tips and or ideas would be greatly appreciated.
*UPDATE**
In the content view, which is not working, it is using this url
http://www.abc.com/Composite/content/Frontend/Images/logo.gif
All other sites, including the published version of the site above use this url
http://cms.abc.dev/Frontend/Images/logo.gif
I am assuming the same is happening for all images and style sheet references.
However, I cannot find where this is happening. In the master page items are referenced as follows:
href="~/Frontend/Styles/layout.css"
ImageUrl="~/Frontend/Images/logo.gif"
Thats weird... have you somehow accidently configured the /Composite/Content folder as an application? Thats almost the only explanation why asp.net would expand ~ to /Composite/content/ instead of just /.
The preview-tab is handled through a wrapper-page that lives inside /Composite/content, unlike normal viewing of published pages which is handles by the root itself.
I think i found the problem...
I created a new app pool, used it, and now it works.
I guess the app pool somehow got corrupted...
I want to make a silverlight web part hosted in SharePoint 2010 that will take up the entire screen. I know how to get rid of all the SharePoint navigation through CSS or a custom master page, but I'm struggling with how to get a web part zone to grow to the full height available. I've messed around with using CSS or jquery to set the heights of the various tables and divs that wrap a web part and haven't found a good solution. Has anyone done this?
How about not using a webpart, and just embedding the Silverlight application into an empty page with an empty masterpage?
You can grab the html or aspx page that Visual Studio generates when you create an new Silverlight project.
I would suggest you to get a new master page for this purpose. You can get the minimal master page here:

I am writing a simple salesforce app that requires app-level and user-level configuration. I have created custom objects for these settings, but cannot figure out how to add links to the Setup page (Personal Setup and Customize) so that the settings can be managed.
Quite a lot of research, and a question on a salesforce board, have left me none the wiser. I have seen a couple of scripts on the web that hack the setup sidebar with javascript (eg http://userscripts.org/scripts/show/95361) ... but this can't be the right way to do it surely?
Thanks
Jim
You are unable to do this without hacking because Salesforce want it so that you don't require over-explicit setup of any app you create - they want you to make it data-independent and in fact it may fail a security review if it is data dependent. It will also likely cause you headaches in correctly unit testing the app.
My suggestion would be to have a set of custom pages which are linked to on the home page for a user which display if they have no current values (so the first thing they see on the home page when they login for the first time is a "Hey, before you use this app you need to do some configuration through this handy wizard" and then block access to other areas of the app (i.e. display warning messages on other pages) if the app has not had this data setup.
That way you are not hacking and are providing a nice user experience around the extra setup.

DO you just want to add a new TAB on the top menu that links to the Edit page for your new sObject?
If so:
Goto setup https://cs3.salesforce.com/ui/setup/Setup
Click on 'Create' > 'Tab'
Pick the sObject you want the tab edit, the click next until you save the new tab.
There is no supported way to augment the Setup menu.
You should probably be using Custom Settings for what you are describing - they were designed for app-level and user-level configuration, and are available from Setup.
Otherwise, if it really is custom setup that requires fancier logic / UI / etc, you may want to do what many SFDC ISV's do and ship your app with its own configuration tab that's hidden, and/or custom VF page that manages app settings.
I have just created a new silverlight app using Silverlight navigation template. All went well and its working :-)
But the url has an extension of aspx ... can we not remove like asp.net MVC has done?
SilverlightApplication1TestPage.aspx
The next thing that i found strange is how it appends the page name, it uses # symbol like so
SilverlightApplication1TestPage.aspx#Home
I thought it would be more natural to do this (also like asp.net mvc does)
SilverlightApplication1TestPage/Home
SilverlightApplication1TestPage/About
Is there a kind of work around or updated tamplete of some kind
Or its not possible?
Thanks
I'm using Silverlight with Asp.Net MVC and here is a sample URL: http://localhost:37920/#/AdvancedSearch. When I was using straight Asp.Net then yeah I had .aspx files in it. It Still isn't what you really want but gets you closer maybe.
The bottom line is: no. To simplify it everything in a URL prior to the # belongs to the server and everything after the # belongs to the client.
A Silverlight application exists entirely with with in a single URL (page) from the servers perspective. When you use the Silverlight navigation framework you are moving about within the app inside this single HTML page.
If the # is removed there would be fetches made to the server and the results would replace the existing page, the current SL app will be unloaded to be replaced with the resulting content. Even if that resulting content is the same SL app but directed to a different context it would still unload the app and reload it.
The use # is merely a means for navigation within the Silverlight app to be tracked within the browsers navigation history. The browsers own back button will then operate in a way that doesn't surprise the user.
THanks everyone for comments, it got me thinking... and i think i have fixed it.. and found a solutions using asp.net 4.0 routing...
Add a global file to the asp.net project and then add this to application start
// Code that runs on application startup
RouteTable.Routes.MapPageRoute("SilverlightRoute",
"MyApp",
"~/SilverlightApplication1TestPage.aspx");
