Business Catalyst Integration

From reading the responses of the Adobe team here, it appears Edge Code is focusing on client side coding and integration with the other Edge tools and services. And interestingly there appears to be plans to make Edge Code work in the Cloud.
So with that being the case, it appears that with Business Catalyst being one of the Edge services that handles the server side, it seems Edge Code and Business Catalyst would make a great combination.
Are there any plans to add a Business Catalyst extension that accesses the BC modules and tags and maybe even make Edge Code work directly in the Cloud in the Admin backend of a Business Catalyst site/subscription?
I know that we are able to add extensions to Brackets and Edge Code but since BC is owned by you guys, it seems to me like there is a huge opportunity there for something special because of how well Business Catalyst and Edge Code seem to complement each other.

Hey Daryl,
This is Bogdan Ripa - Business Ctaalyst Product Owner.
Thanks for your note. As you can imagine, our teams have talked in the past about a potential integration, and edventually it will happen. I know how valuable this would be for our partners, and I'm a big advocate that we build it.
While Brackets does not have (yet) a browser-based version, we have integrated directly with Code Mirror and have built a code editor in Business Catalyst directly. Our next release (scheduked for next Tuesday) will actually take our in-browser code editor out of alpha, and all partners will be able to use it. Here is how it will look like:
When the Brackets code editor will be ready for in-browser use, we'll take that branch and use it ourselves.
Again - thanks for the note!
- Bogdan

Muse Business Catalyst Integration

One thing I'd really like to see is a tighter Muse/Business Catalyst integration. I've been able to sell clients on the prospect of using Business Catalyst (and/or price it into my SOW), but it's still quite the chore to manually locate all of your styles using Firebug, then go back in and rewrite them all in the module stylesheet CSS.
I'd be nice to see all of the BC modules either automatically inherit styles from the main Muse stylesheets, or it'd be nicer to see Business Catalyst widgets (a la the Dreamweaver interface) be built into Muse.
Also, I'm a beta tester who would be pleased as punch to test these features.

What I'd love to see is another widget panel, designed for Business Catalyst, that would let you pop in the different elements of BC.
I was thinking along the same lines—the Muse team needs to add the BC features in as widgets. Your idea of a seperate panel is even better!
I haven't signed up for BC because I've found the interface clunky and awkward and even if you might not have to know a lot of code, you need to know some which takes it right back out of the comfort zone of the very people Muse is targeting. Make a BC panel where I can do all of the BC stuff without actually having to go to the back end and I'll gladly hand over my cash.
Just yesterday I went to play around with a form I made in Muse but wanted to add drop downs and radio buttons to. Went to BC, never understood how to get the new elements integrated with the existing form and back onto the page with the original formatting applied, made a hash of it and logged out.
At a minimum please put those other form elements into Muse (there in InDesign now, why not Muse?) but I'd really like to be able to take full advantage of a premium BC account right through Muse. Maybe it can be a panel set that you get when you sign up for a paid BC account?

Muse-Business Catalyst Integration: Is it ever going to happen?

Back a couple years ago when Muse was announced, it was also announced that it would eventually feature integration with the content management features of Business Catalyst. That hasn't happened yet, to any meaningful degree. Is Muse-BC integration no longer on the development roadmap? Or if it is, could Adobe please provide Muse users with some concrete, specific, non-ambiguous details of what those plans are? Such as, what features, when? What features never?
I realize Adobe doesn't like to discuss this, but after all this time I think it is only fair to share this information with both the Muse and Business Catalyst communities so that we can make our plans moving forward accordingly.

That is why i decided to pay 2000$ US to become a BC premium partner...
After loads of tickets with the support team and filing in 2 bugs (That are not fixed yet after 5 months).
Should we start thinking about some sort of class action?, just saying.

PhoneGap & Business Catalyst Integration

Hi there,
Im new to PhoneGap and just wanted to ask a few questions before I start designing using Business Catalyst. I would like to make a phone app for Apple store with PhoneGap, will this work if I have Web apps/Blog modules in my website using Business Catalyst?
If so, then everytime I post a new blog article will I have to re-upload new files or will it pull fresh content into the phone app?
Many Thanks for any help
Kris

They have to render at the server before the HTML is sent to the browser.
I'm not sure how you're expecting this to work. If you can provide more
context perhaps we can help further.

Dreamweaver Help | Dreamweaver-Business Catalyst integration

This question was posted in response to the following article: http://helpx.adobe.com/dreamweaver/using/dreamweaver-business-catalyst.html

The sequence above for importing a business catalyst site won't work for me. I've opened a support case back on the 4th. It was escalated. Still, today on the 12th I've gotten no response. I just get a little flash wheel spinning as it attempts to retrieve the site definition. Is this related to my adobe id? Or to my master rebranded partner sites default url? I've deactivated, reactivated, I've deleted the prefs from the library in osx for Dreamweaver. I've uninstalled, reinstalled. Still not working and no replies from Adobe. What gives?
Import a Business Catalyst site
For information on migrating sites that you previously created using the Business Catalyst extension, see Migrating Business Catalyst sites to Dreamweaver CS6.
    Select Site > Manage Sites.
    Click Import Business Catalyst Site. The list of Business Catalyst sites you created with the Adobe ID is displayed.
    Select the site, and click Import Site.
    For the site that you are trying to import, specify a location on your computer.
    Enter the password related to your Adobe ID.
    When the file activity is complete, click Done.
above is what doesn't work for me... It hangs after I click import...

Help with business catalyst with muse for a client's website

I created a site for a client using creative cloud muse, she got a business analyst account and added me as a user, but i am not able to upload the site straight from muse using publish .. what am i doing wrong?

There is a workaround. It takes a little more work, but it is definitely worth it and will solve your problem. I subscribed and learned from tutorials on the www(.)trainsimple(.)com. They have a video series called "Muse CC Business Catalyst Integration" which was very helpful. The issue that everyone on here is referring to is covered in the 3 videos labelled, "Email Sign Up Checkbox", "Moving Muse Webforms to Business Catalyst" and "Email Marketing".
Essentially, what you want to do is create a form in Business Catalyst, turn that form into a module, assign a tag to that module, then put the tag into Muse using Object > Insert HTML. This will solve Muse deleting the web forms everytime.

Help with Business Catalyst Web forms and Adobe Muse.

I created a websform to log into a secure zone using business catalyst. I pasted the webform's html into Adobe Muse. After publishing my site. The websform I created in business catalyst is deleted, but I can see all of the forms that I created using Muse in the webform section. Is there a fix for this problem? Thanks
This is the page with the forms. http://www.highestgoodclothing.com/login.html

No login available in Business Catalyst extension panel in Dreamweaver CS5.

I am not getting the login form in the Business Catalyst Extension panel in Dreamweaver CS5.
I have added the extension and restarted Dreamweaver, but the panel still shows two buttons: Get Started ( taking me to download the extension) and Learn More ( taking me to a page that does not exist anymore).
Does anyone know how to make the login form appear so that I can get Business Catalyst integrated with Dreamweaver CS5?

Try to restore the Dreamweaver Preferences as given in the link below, and see if that helps

Stopping Business Catalyst network activity

Hi, is there a way of removing or disabling everything to do with Business Catalyist. i noticed there was network activity (contacting business server on opening dreamweaver) that we really want to stop.
thanks.

I am not aware of any way to disable the Business Catalyst integration features.
However, I noted that as long as you have the Business Catalyst panel closed (or even minimized), then that network activity does not occur during startup.
Try opening DW, closing the BC panel, then restart DW to see if you still notice the network activity.

Adding a search bar when using Muse and Business Catalyst

Hello and greetings,
I am creating a site with Adobe muse and Business Catalyst integration for blogs and ecommerce. I know you can add a search bar using this tutorial from Muse Themes. However, will it search everything created between both Muse and Business Catalyst, or will it only search for Muse created content if inserted in Muse?
Does anyone know?

Hello,
When you create a search option in a Business Catalyst site, it searches everyting in the site, all th contents of the site that is. So, whatever the content of the site is, it will be indexed for searching purposes, provided you used the BC search bar.
Cheers
Parikshit

Business Catalyst feature currently not working in Dreamweaver CS6

Anyone else experiencing this? I can login to BC, but my module icons won't show and I can't jump to admin either. Is there a prferences setting I accidentally switched off? Is the system down?

The Business Catalyst integration with Dreamweaver is just bug ridden. Since I first reported this bug 7 MONTHS AGO!!! (Thanks for getting on the problem Adobe) Anyway, since I first reported the problem I have purchased a brand new PC (this month) with a fresh install of CS6... I intentionally did not upgrade Dreamweaver CS6 because as soon as you do you lose all Business Catalyst function. Everything was fine until this morning when I logged on to work, launched Dreamweaver and again... I CAN'T LOG INTO BUSINESS CATALYST THROUGH DREAMWEAVER! Worked fine yesterday but today not so much... so here we go again - unistall Dreamweaver re-install and hope it works. Not the most efficient system but when Adode doesn't respond to bug fixes for over half a year... there isn't much you can do. I'm a paid partner too... what a disgrace.

Introducing: Adobe Business Catalyst (BC) Site Integration Video Tutorial Series

Hi
I've been developing in BC now for many years now, and I’ve integrated more than 300 websites. I have always felt there was a need for a resource to learn how to do site integration from start to finish for developers – so I created my own lesson series. This video series will give someone a solid foundation and understanding of integrating a website into Adobe Business Catalyst and offers a peek into my workflow.
The total series is 3.5 hours and it is broken into multiple videos by step, so you can complete the tutorial at your own pace, and re-visit a specific step as needed. The series will cover the entire process of creating a cool Responsive Twitter Bootstrap template integration into Adobe Business Catalyst. I start with nothing and end up with a fully integrated website while documenting the entire process. A lot of common snags and issues will be covered during the process and we will work through them together.
You will be able to log in and stream any of the video lessons whenever you want, on any device. You can even download all of the videos and watch offline!
These videos cover many of the steps you will take to integrate a template – here are some examples of the things I cover while integrating the website:
1. Template Creation
2. Dynamic Menus
3. Home page rotator Web App
4. Testimonials Web App
5. Featured Blog Post Web App
6. Custom Web Forms
7. Newsletter Subscription Form
8. Social Navigations with Icon Fonts
9. Custom jQuery functions
10. Our Team Web App
11. FAQ Web App
12. Custom Blog Integration
13. Portfolio Web App
14. Contact Form
15. Responsive Web Design / Media Queries
16. Bugs / Troubleshooting
17. Basic jQuery +and more!
All of this for only $9.95 | Check it out here: http://bit.ly/ZLlHlr

Hi Joe, does your dynamic menus demo cover 2 level hover navigation with the bootstrap menu? Something I am struggling with integrating ... Thanks

Business Catalyst IDX Integration

I am creating a real estate website for a client that needs IDX integration within their website.
For any that are unfamiliar with IDX, it is basically a way of integrating the MLS database (that is, the database of US homes for sale) into websites.
The basic functionality I need is for registered users to be able to log in to a secure zone, select the homes they like, and log back in at a later date in order to view these homes again.
I'll be speaking with the owners of IDX and MLS within the next few days and would like to know more about Business Catalyst's potential capabilities when integrating this kind of system within our website.
Thanks,
- Tyler

Hi Tyler,
I'm not aware of any current IDX known integration with BC.
However you might want to reach out to some of our custom solution implementors for possible suggestions if no luck here.

Integrating leadpages with Business Catalyst Mailing lists

I am having trouble with integrating my leadpages with my Business Catalyst account.
Has anyone had this problem before? I have cleaned the code and ensured that it is supposed to link to the correct mailing list, however it won't pull together.
This is the code:
<form name="catemaillistform37932" onsubmit="return checkWholeForm37932(this)" method="post" action="http://smallfish.com.au/CampaignProcess.aspx?ListID=46287"><div class="form"><div class="item"><label for="CLFullName">Full Name</label><br /><input class="cat_textbox_small" type="text" name="FullName" id="CLFullName" maxlength="255" /></div><div class="item"><label for="CLEmailAddress">Email Address</label><br /><input class="cat_textbox_small" type="text" name="EmailAddress" id="CLEmailAddress" maxlength="255" /></div><div class="item"><input class="cat_button" type="submit" value="Subscribe" id="catlistbutton" /></div></div><script type="text/javascript" src="http://smallfish.com.au/CatalystScripts/ValidationFunctions.js"></script><script type="text/javascript">
//<![CDATA[

Hi
This was the full video I did

        <input class="cat_textbox_small" type="text" name="FullName" id="CLFullName" maxlength="255" />
      </div>
      <div class="item">
