Embedding Videos in Article

Hi All,

 

I have a scenario in which I have an custom article type named "Rich Text" and has a custom Rich Text Area field named "Content".  I need to enter text and embed video into this field. I have embedded video using iframe by clicking embed video icon available. The video gets embeded and displays the text and video in Internal App. However, while exposing it to Public website, only the text portion of "Content" filed appears; the iframe section seems to be stripped. 

 

Can anyone help me out with this?

 

Thanks

Fetch current user lang in header file of Customer Portal(HTML File)

Hi,

 

I have a business requirement where the Customer Portal should have a customized look and feel. For achieving that, I am using an HTML file with css uploaded in Documents tab and refering it in Header field of Customer Portal.

Now the requirement is to switch the css based on current users' language. I can switch the css using javascript inside the HTML file if I can get users language to that HTML file when page loads. Is there a way to get the current users' language in that HTML file when the page loads? I tried {!$User.Language}, but was not helpful. Could anyone advice please.

 

Thanks in Advance,

Custom Object won't insert from public access visualforce site

I have a VisualForce page and controller that works great when I test it using preview from within the developer console, but when I try to access it from my VisualForce public access site, the record does not get inserted.  I have been checking all of the permissions, but have not been able to find anywhere that has allowed the records to be created.  Let me know if I need to add code, etc.  But I know the code works, it just seems like a permissions issue somewhere that I am missing...

 

Thanks for the help.

Can't see error message - Site Down for Maintenance!

Hi,

This has become a real pain point for me, but how can I turn off the maintenance page and get the actual error message.


When I try to view my site, it says "Down for Maintenance".  I understand this is to supress the error message, but I really need to see what's going on behind the scenes so I can fix the problem.


Does anyone know how to do this? Or is there some other way which I can see the true error message?

 

Thanks.

Visualforce Email template to display date and time in User's timezone (local time)

Hello All,

Just want to share my experience in creating Visualforce Email template where you want to display date and time in User timezone

 

***Overview
You are in MST time zone.
Let's say we have Date/Time field TaskDateTime__c and use it in Visualforce email template to show recipient the time in email.

<apex:outputText value="{0,date,EEEE, MMMM d, yyyy, HH:mm:ss}"><apex:param value="{!RelatedTo.TaskDateTime__c}" /></apex:outputText>

 

In email time will be converted and showed to GMT instead of EST.

 

The outputField (which convert time to user locale automatically) does not
work in Visualforce Email templates (not supported).

 

So how do I tell to display in Visualforce Email template time in User
timezone? For example MST?

 

***Implementation Details (worarounds)***

 

I found two workarounds:

 

Workaround 1: Use Controller class for the Component to use in template

In order to format the date in various TimeZone in Email Template, we can follow the steps:

1. First create a Controller class for the Component

Setup|App Setup|Develop|Apex Classes|New

Formatted_DateTime_Controller Class Code
----------------------------------------------------------

public class controller_formatted_datetime
{
public DateTime date_time { get; set; } //property that reads the datetime value from component attribute tag
public String defined_format { get; set;} //property that reads the string value from component attribute tag
public String getFormattedDatetime()
{
if (date_time == null) {return ''; }
else { if (defined_format == null) {
return date_time.format(); //return the full date/time in user's locale and time zone
}
else { return date_time.format(defined_format,'MST'); //Specify Time zone like IST,CST
}}}}

 

2. Create a Component

Setup|App Setup|Develop|Components

VF Component Code (Name: VFEmailTempComp)

<apex:component access="global" controller="controller_formatted_datetime">{!FormattedDatetime}
<apex:attribute assignTo="{!date_time}" description="The DateTime value to be rendered" name="date_time_value" type="DateTime"></apex:attribute>
<apex:attribute assignTo="{!defined_format}" description="The optional format to use for the DateTime value to be rendered" name="date_time_format" type="String"></apex:attribute>
</apex:component>

 

 

3. Create an Email Template and embed the component.

Setup|Administration Setup|Communication Templates|Email Templates

Email Template Code
---------------------------------

<messaging:emailTemplate subject="Testing DateTime Format" recipientType="Contact" >
<messaging:plainTextEmailBody >
Formatted: <c:VFEmailTempComp date_time_value="{!NOW()}" date_time_format="EEE MMM d kk:mm:ss z yyyy" />
</messaging:plainTextEmailBody>
</messaging:emailTemplate>

 

It will display current time in MST timezone.


Workaround 2: Calculate difference in the apex:param value (for MST (-7) it will be 7/24=0.291666666

Date: <apex:outputText value="{0,date,EEEE, MMMM d, yyyy}"><apex:param value="{!RelatedTo.Scheduled_Clock_In__c - 0.291666666}" /></apex:outputText>
Time: <apex:outputText value="{0,date,h:ma}"><apex:param value="{!RelatedTo.Scheduled_Clock_In__c - 0.291666666}" /></apex:outputText> MST

knowledge:articleList filter by multiple categories 

 
<knowledge:articleList articleVar="article"  	        				  
hasMoreVar="hasMore" pageSize="10"
articleTypes="Samples_and_Demos__kav, How_To__kav"
categories="Topic:Applications,Topic:Desktop">

 I'm trying to specify more then one articleType and category as filters for the VF tag "articleList".

 

The documentation doesn't specify how to do this.

 

For ArticleType, seperating by a comma works fine as listed. If I do the same thing for "categories", I only get results from the 2nd category specified, instead of from both. In this example, I only get results from Topic:Desktop and not Topic:Applications

 

Is there a different syntax for specifying multiple categories or is this a bug?

 

thanks!
