AlloyDemoKit

A version of the Alloy reference site containing additional features for demoing purposes. This is not intended to be a starter solution but provides the ability to showcase a number of features and add-ons that may be needed for a demo.

See the wiki for more information

The site can be re-designed or updated quite easily. There are a number of useful block and page types and Find is used by default for search.

Note: Add-ons and packages installed will need to be configured. For example, Social Reach, Goolge Analytics, etc. If you are making commits to AlloyDemoKit you must ensure that you have removed any configuration that is specific to your demos.

alloydemokit's Issues

Not able to add criteria to visitor group

The new "VisitorGroupUIStyling" pieces are breaking visitor group UI. I am unable to drop the criteria when building a new visitor group.

Tested in latest Chrome.

Cannot login to alloy

I cloned the repo and I'm running it locally.

Frontpage works ok. When I try to access backoffice I see login screen, I enter credentials from https://github.com/episerver/AlloyDemoKit/wiki/Logins and I'm being redirected back to login page.

Any ideas why / what is missing? (note: when I use random password I'm being redirected to login page with "login failed" message. If I enter proper credentials there's a redirect but without any message)

Current master branch not working

Step to reproduce

Check out the master, build solution and start without debugging receiving the following error

500 - Internal server error.

Database version issue

The database 'alloydemokit' cannot be opened because it is version 869. This server supports version 852 and earlier. A downgrade path is not supported.
Could not open new database 'alloydemokit'. CREATE DATABASE is aborted.
Is it possible to solve this? may make the database compatible with older sql server?
That would be really nice

Null reference exception running fresh clone of solution

Today (8th of February) I downloaded Episerver AlloyDemoKit. When I tried to run it using IIS Express I got null reference exception.

Exception page, General event info and event XML are linked.

It seems to me there could not be any error on my side.

Convert release notes from Word doc to readme.md (or whatever format)

Could be even wiki pages here in repo

Localization Issue/ Error

When I run the Alloy Demo Kit I am getting the following error. It appears to be an issue with the localization services not being able to find the resource key? Not quite sure, but I can sometime get past this with an IIS Reset.

Error:
Collection was modified; enumeration operation may not execute.

Description: An unhandled exception occurred during the execution of the current web request. Please review the stack trace for more information about the error and where it originated in the code.

Exception Details: System.InvalidOperationException: Collection was modified; enumeration operation may not execute.

Source Error:

Line 44: string value;
Line 45:
Line 46: if(!LocalizationService.Service.TryGetString(resurceKey, out value))
Line 47: {
Line 48: value = resurceKey;

Error when first loading AlloyDemoKit: There is no build provider registered for the extension '.cshtml'.

When you first start AlloyDemoKit you may encounter the following error:

There is no build provider registered for the extension '.cshtml'.

The solution to this issue is to:

• Change the optimizeCompilations attribute of the element to "false"
• Clean the solution
• Rebuild
• Delete temporary ASP.net files: C:\Windows\Microsoft.NET\Framework\v4.0.30319\Temporary ASP.NET Files

The solution should resolve itself after that

Missing SearchPageController in the solution

Solution does not reference SearchPageController.cs, but the file is available in the repository.

Either include the controller in the solution or remove the file from repository.

V11 branch YSOD missing dependency

Project file missing reference to StructureMap.Web, PR incoming.

A/B Test images not showing

Maybe since the image resizer got changed? I can't see how though... or it could be the new submitted form KPI?

database read-only error

I pulled down the latest master and ran into the following error

Failed to update database "alloydemokit" because the database is read-only.

Can anyone help with this issue?
