So (for example) if a user selects their gender and pant size while searching on Shopify store, could those selections be saved and be in place when they visit again?
I'm open to switching to a new Shopify search app that would support this feature.
There a few approaches that you can achieve this.
Using cookies
You can save their choices as cookies and refer to them once they search modifying the search URL before redirecting or appending hidden files in the form so that they submit them as well.
Creating a custom app
You can create a custom app with only one purpose to save the information to the customer metafields or tags.
Once you have this information you will be able to use the same logic as the cookie one but instead of relying on a cookie you will have access to the metafields directly.
App
I don't think that there is an App that meets these criteria, but you can look it up. Yet it may be possible to hack up the Apps in a such way that you may be able to pass this information.

In my Sitefinity back-end there is a user section that I would like to add some setting. Something like DisplayLink where it would be a boolean value that I can set on Login of the user. Is there a way I can do that? I am using sf 14 and can't find anyway to add some setting for the user.
I believe this is what you need ...map the view externally and modify.
However keep in mind these views pull in the XHR JSON and you just expose it to the grid... Open your console and view the XHR network traffic to see the JSON object per user. There's a "Comment" field you might be able to leverage, but man the best way would be to just use a ROLE... because they can be filtered, and already come across in that JSON.
Another thing to note, is this is an OLD UI screen and likely will get revamped in the next few releases of Sitefinity rendering everything you're doing pointless... (have to re-do it with likely the new AdminApp Extensions)
I have a requirement to configure the user's authorization per module per screen per action. For example, one user should be able to Create/Save WorkOrders in WorkOrder Module, but another user should only able to View/Delete WorkOrders. Similarly, a third user should only be able to View WorkOrders. This is an example of one screen. Now there are many screens in the application. Let's keep the actions same for all i.e. View, New, Update, Delete.
There is a reports module also, in which the user will create reports on the fly and add it into the application. So authorization is required here too. For example, a user can View/Print WorkOrder reports. But another user can only view reports. Let's keep the actions in reports only View & Print.
I am not sure Asp.Net Core built-in authorization is capable of this or not. What I have looked so far, it is not possible. Please correct me if I am wrong.
Now question is, how should I do this? I had a similar kind of requirement in a previously built application where I used database tables to store rights against each user and each screen. And upon log-in, I used to fetch that data, and then while loading the web page; I used to show or hide the relevant buttons & menus based on user's rights. But here in Asp.Net Razor Pages, the action method matters (If I'm not wrong), and certain functionality can be accessed via route. I am looking for some attribute-based solution.
I found this link with more or less above mentioned implementation using database tables and route URL to determine action name. So the URLs are saved in the database and on runtime they are checked and matched with the current URL and the user is authenticated.
Another link here, where the developer has used attribute-based filtering on action methods. But URL Routes are not being saved in the database or anywhere.
Are these the only & best solution to my problem? I have no problem implementing them, they look logical. But I just want to use the best available approach. Can anyone assist me with any other more suitable approach?
We plan to create a Shopify app but we face some problems to find in documentations how to interact with pages.
I`m not sure we must ask every time users to add codes and etc, so I need to know if I miss something.
I need to interact with the product pages in Shopify from an app.
I search and read all the web for this and everything is how to start but not the actual examples.
I know for the ScriptTags and how to include them but that is.
If someone can give me a simple example of how for example to hide the Buy button and insert something on instead.
I know how to select it with the default theme with JQuery but what about all other themes?
There are two ways to interact with the front page:
1) Inject some code in the page ( the live one )
2) Use ScriptTag as you mentioned.
The code injection script will modify the product template for example and inject your code if you like to do this automatically or you can instruct the user to do so on their own, but if they are not code savvy there might be issues.
In addition this code will live only on the live theme in most cases. And if the user likes to delete your app at a specific time you must be sure to write the logic in such way that it won't affect the site if your app is no longer present ( since it will be really hard to clean up the files once you add the code automatically )
For this approach you will need to use the Asset API.
You will need to get the content of the file with a GET request to the file and make a put request in order to update it.
The better approach is to use ScriptTag API.
This will allow the use of a script file that will be attached on EVERY theme. This will not modify the theme files in any form or shape.
It seems that this is the approach that you are looking for.
Please have in mind that you will be the one hosting the file from your app so pretty much you can write what ever you like there. So if you like to use jQuery you must be sure that the themes have included jQuery or you will have to add the jQuery core code inside your script.
As for how to write a script tag, there is a pretty straightforward documentation here: https://help.shopify.com/en/api/reference/online-store/scripttag#create-2020-01
I have two sets of solutions targeted at different users (say: finance and operations). They're composed basically of CDE dashboards.
I wish to present a different Pentaho login screen for each of the solutions, to kind of show they're different "applications", or a different set of dashboards.
Can I have two customized login screens that can be invoked or switched according to a parameter? Like, say, sending &theme=newapp in the URL? Has anyone done it?
I have customized the login screen and have done themes in Pentaho, so I know the basics.
I'm using Pentaho 5.2 CE
Thanks!
You will need to change the login redirect filter. Everytime you hit a Pentaho URL and don't have a valid session you're sent to the Pentaho/Login page.
So you have two options: change the redirect class so that it redirects to different login pages depending on the URL or have the referral URL parsed by the login page and display different content depending on where the user came from.
Neither of these options is easy, though.
I'm trying to figure out how to implement a mechanism that decides dynamically what's the landing page for a user.
I know that the default landing page is relatively easy to customize, as you can see in the following link:
http://blogs.alfresco.com/wp/ddraper/2011/11/01/advanced-share-customization-part-1/
http://zscribble.wordpress.com/2012/02/13/how-to-change-user-landing-page-in-alfresco-share/
But it is not enough because I need go a little further; after the successful authentication of any user, I need to retrieve the site/s that a user belongs to and then redirect to the dashboard of any of the sites.
I guess there is any authentication service that redirects to TOMCAT/webapps/share/site-index.jsp, and from here to either the user dashboard or a site dashboard, depending on the parameters received. If I'm right with my assumption, I understand I just should customize such supposed authentication service in order to get the user's sites and then redirect to the appropriate site dashboard's URL.
Am I in the right way? If not, any idea on how to proceed?
Thanks.
There are two possible approach in order to implement a mechanism which dynamically redirects to a page after a successful authentication in Alfresco Share.
The easiest way consists in the next steps:
Change the default landing page by updating the value of the tag <root-page> in the file alfresco\site-data\configurations\slingshot.site.configuration.xml (the default value is site-index).
Create a custom Surf page according to the value defined before.
Create a custom template-instance
Create a custom FreeMarker template, exclusively containing a region that loads a webscript (will be created in the next step).
Implement a webscript that decides whatever a URL to redirect to (in my case I have to retrieve the user's sites via RESTful API and then redirect to a site's dashboard)
Perform the redirection similarly to the accept-invite component is doing
The other possible way is to override the classes PageView and PageViewResolver, this way you can perform the redirection to the landing page in a single step rather than two steps, what is more efficient as a consequence. I didn't developed this solution so I cannot give more details but according to what an Alfresco Engineer says, it is viable to achieve.
