Re: BLOGS: COURSE ONLINE ABOUT HOW TO MANAGE COMPONENTS
Thank you very much for the suggestion. You are right, we cover blogs only at a high level in the Community Foundation course and Administrator Overview. You will find a lot more information in our online documentation which can go into the details to a much greater extent than our online courses.4.4KViews3likes0CommentsRe: Lithium Training
Hi Graham. We are very glad to hear that you found the training valuable. Typically customers going through the launch process will use the staging server we provide to test out what they are learning in the tutorials. Do you not have access to your stage server yet?5.6KViews0likes0CommentsRe: Displaying Community Widgets Externally
You will have the greatest flexiblity by making use of our REST API. Just search for that at the community level to get our orientation doc and the java docs (list of all the available methods). That will give you the calls (URLs) to use. When you use those call we will return either XML or JSON, which you will then need to parse and format on your pages. You will need a developer who is familiar with those steps and has access to your web pages. The alternative is ActiveCast. You can search on that too. It is much more limited in the content that it can provide, but for the items it covers, it returns javascript, so it is easier to place on your page.159Views3likes0CommentsRe: Do not show the "Search Granularity" dropdown in the search form widget?
Now that we know the "how," I would be interested in the why. In particular, removing the user search means that people have to click the search button with no entry, or an irrelevant entry to get to a page where they can specify that they want a user search. That is confusing and many won't figure out that process. Additionally, if you add our Tribal Knowledge Base feature at some time, you can also focus your search there.875Views0likes2Comments
