Extending the Episerver global menu

  • Development

  • Optimizely

Extending the Episerver global menu is easy. You can add menu sections and sub-menu items such as menu sections, drop-downs, URLs and pop-up menu items. In this short blog post I will demonstrate how you can keep your menu context while navigating between several MVC actions.

Import redirects for 404 handler

  • Development

  • Optimizely

This is more a reminder for me, but could be useful for others as well. We use the Episerver 404 handler in most if not all of our projects. It does a good job of handling URL redirects and custom 404 pages.

Content reference selector with direct file upload

  • Development

  • Optimizely

Sometimes when developing Episerver solutions you find the need to extend the behaviour of already existing property editors. In this blog post I will briefly describe how I extended the built-in content selector with direct upload functionality using drag and drop. This way you don’t have to create your "Media"-items before being able to select them. You can just upload them directly to the property editor and they will be added to the assets folder of the content you are working on and selected automatically.

Insert your view engine at correct position

  • Development

  • Optimizely

The other day I had to deal with a mysterious error with the Episerver Shell search function. You know the little search icon to the right in the dashboard drop-down menu. When I clicked it nothing happened. I looked at the request in developer toolbar, discovered the exception and this is how I fixed it.

Episerver Commerce - Retrieving all parent catalog nodes

  • Development

  • Optimizely

  • E-commerce

From time to time I get asked; 'How can I retrieve all parent catalog nodes for a product in Episerver Commerce?' Achieving this using the current version of Episerver commerce API is a bit cumbersome. Luckily Episerver is working on a relation overhaul for the next major version of Commerce, but until then I'll provide some sample code that does the trick.

Service API for Customers, Carts and Orders released

  • Development

  • Optimizely

  • E-commerce

EPiServer released Service API some time ago but it was missing an API for Customers, Carts and Order. We have now released additional Service API endpoints for this Commerce functionality.

Content area renderer on steroids

  • Development

  • Optimizely

This is an example of a custom content area renderer that automatically wraps blocks in container and row <div> tags and also has support for non wrapped hero blocks.

New version of Tags for Episerver

  • Development

  • Optimizely

The biggest fix has been auto-save not always picking up changed values from the Tags property. In addition we’ve added some more flexibility with GroupKeys, CultureSpecific support, allow spaces, allow duplicates and case sensitive. And a brand new admin interface for managing tags.
