Carousel Web App - Alphabetical Slide Ordering?

Hi team,
The default display order for slides in the "Carousel" Web App seems to be Alphabetical. My Client wants the first slide featured to be a new product which is not the first alphabetcally and I'm hesitant to change the title of the slide to "AAA Trolleys Now Available" as this will then show up in the title when the user clicks through.
I'm using the Adora template. I have created a test 'untouched' copy of the Adora template here:
http://adoraspare.businesscatalyst.com/
...although... you can easily test this out yourself (and access the back end) by just setting up a spare trial site yourself using the Adora Template.
I can't find anywhere to change the default slide order from alphabetical.

PowerPoint presentations not working with Office Web Apps

Hi,
I have deployed Lync 2013 and Office Web Apps Server in order to share PowerPoint presentations. All te sharings are working fine (Desktop, Program, Whiteboard, Poll) but PowerPoint presentations.
I have re-installed Office Web Apps Server several times but it doesn't work:
Discovery URL is OK
Event IDs in Lync Server Event Viewer are OK
I have checked certificate and created it twice and that's not the problem (when tried to use a wrong certificate, the behaviour was different).
Tried aspnet_regiis but didn't worked.
Both Lync Server and Office Web Apps Server are updated.
Servers are Windows Server 2008 R2 SP1.
I have tested both Lync 2013 and Lync 2013 Basic clients but no one works.
When I share a PowerPoint, I can see it follows the whole way through LyncShare, Lync Server and Office Web Apps Server. PowerPoint files get to Office Web Apps Server (different name but I can move then to other workstation and check
they are the files shared).
Clients begin showing a "Loading..." but end showing "Network connectivity lost or server too busy" (after 90 seconds more or less).
If I get URL from Lync-UccApi-0:
https://wacserver.domain/m/Presenter.aspx?a=0&e=true&WopiSrc=https%3A%2F%2Flyncpool.domain%2FDataCollabWeb%2Fwopi%2Ffiles%2F11-1-90C848&access_token=AAMFEECCjUt7489YhSlhQY4GBWcGEIsJ8vG8JQH9w0g_TTTVe3aBEECCjUt7489YhSlhQY4GBWeCApwQgyBHjXVmSaUT70sAAlMNX4oAfTt5Nqgy5sJwqlLneNAxGYYIsFS5edC90AgIDURhdGFDb2xsYWJXZWI&<fs=FULLSCREEN&><rec=RECORDING&><thm=THEME_ID&><ui=UI_LLCC&><rs=DC_LLCC&>
If I put this URL in the browser, it turns black and shows "Loading..." and, after a long while, "PowerPoint Web App...", but it remains in this state (loading) without working.
In the Office Web Apps Server Event Viewer there are some errors related to other services I'm not using, as OneNote, or for Monitoring with the "PositiveDirect" and "NegativeDirect" tokens. Machine also answers it's
Unhealthy, but as I have read, this is not a problem.
In the ULS Logs I just see errors related to these events but logs for PowerPoint work fine. And IIS is answering with "200" (although there are a number of petitions that seem to be repeated:

It seems that something is not working between the clients and Office Web Apps Server. There is not a firewall and machines see each other. Certificate is accepted.
I have tried so many thing but none of them worked.
Does anybody have an idea?
Thanks!

Hi Thamara,
There is a HLB but I thought of that and tested both: with HLB and pointing just a Front End, without HLB. In both cases, results were the same.
I can access the Front End pool web services from the WAC server using the IE.
I'm watching now this event:

It seems that PPTs are being queued as they aren't actually showed.
Does this give you any clue?

Office Web Apps Error after SP 2013 September 2014 CU

Hello Everyone,
I have a single front end and single SQL server for my SharePoint 2013 deployment. I also have Office Web Apps setup and running. However after installing SP 1 and the latest September 2014 CU it appears our users are seeing the below prompt
when open a Word doc in Office Web Apps.
However I am finding that if they use IE 9 or 10 and even Firefox everything works normal. This appears to be affecting just Word.
As for my Office Web Apps server it is still at Version 15.0.4420.1017 (RTM)
If I need to update my Office Web Apps server what order should i do. SP1, July, then Sept?
Thanks,
Ian...

You need to apply office web app update.
It should be in below order.
Office web app Sp1
September 2014 update

Tomcat: order of web-app loading

Hi folks,
does anybody know on which order Tomcat loads its web-apps ?
I need a particular web-app loaded before all other web-apps.
Is there a way to sepecify the loading sequence in Tomcat?

Try explicitly declaring the web app contexts in the conf/server.xml file in the order that you want them to start.

Using MS Access Web App, can you set the tab order of the fields on a form?

Using MS Access Web App, can you set the tab order of the fields on a form? Doesn't appear to be a property. I don't see a programmatic method. I saw someone suggest using goto control on the after update event trigger but what if the person
doesn't edit the field? No event would be fired.
Jim

Hi Jim,
>>Using MS Access Web App, can you set the tab order of the fields on a form?
I am afraid you could not. In Web applications, the tab order is set automatically and cannot be changed.
(From
https://support.office.com/en-au/article/Set-the-tab-order-for-controls-3d7f749c-5a53-42b2-bb0e-2323fa044e2e)
>> I saw someone suggest using goto control on the after update event trigger but what if the person doesn't edit the field? No event would be fired.
The goto method is a workaround, but it should be triggered by a specific event. What I can figure out is changing the order of the fields.
If this is a feature you want to include in future versions of Access Web app, please submit a feedback as the picture below:

PowerPoint Office Web App Embed Code to start presentation on specific slide

I have SharePoint and Office Web Apps configured and playing nicely. When I go to embed a Powerpoint presentation in my page, it works properly.
However, I'd like to be able to control what slide the presentation opens on by the embed URL. I've tried bashing the embed code options to no avail.
Is there a querystring parameter I can add to the source URL that will automatically start the presentation on a different slide than the first one?

No updates? Seems like it should be possible with a querystring paramter but that's just a logical guess. Anyone know if that is in fact the case and what the parameter to pass would be?

Can you update a web app's weighting field automatically??

I'm having a real hard time understanding why we have the power in BC to build web apps but can't sort data the way we want through automation... I realize at this point, the only way to sort my items by date is to manipulate the weighting field. However, I’m building a user driven site with all user submitted content and it needs to be available immediately. Now, obviously results are posted online as soon as they are submitted but as of now, the only automatic way to display results that makes any sense is by a Recent Activity listing or Alphabetical.
Is there any way to automate updating an item's weighting field so that results can be available in order of, for example, Event Date (custom date field)?????
HELP PLEASE - all this power sure seems like a waste if you can't manipulate your results accordingly!!

Ok- two things--
1. You are missing a "(" at the beginning of your function-- you currently have:
function($){
    var container = $(".sort-list");
    var items = $(".sort-item");
    items.sort(function(a,b){
        return new Date($(a).attr("data-event-date")) < new Date($(b).attr("data-event-date"));
    }).each(function(){
        container.prepend(this);
})(jQuery);
But you need a beginning parenthesis before the "function":
(function($){
    var container = $(".sort-list");
    var items = $(".sort-item");
    items.sort(function(a,b){
        return new Date($(a).attr("data-event-date")) < new Date($(b).attr("data-event-date"));
    }).each(function(){
        container.prepend(this);
})(jQuery);
2. Move the whole script in your page to after the "ul.sort-list" element. Right now you have the javascript in the page before the UL element that holds your web app items, so the browser will read that javascript first and since it hasn't read the web app item list inside the UL element then it won't work, so move it to after the closing </ul> of your web app list.
You should be all set if you fix those two issues. Good luck!

Liquid sorting web app list items

FIltering is great in Liquid, but sorting the data by custom fields is something which our clients are really asking for.
Trying to say to a client, you can only sort alphabetically etc. is really making BC seem really unfriendly. Please, please, please can this be added or someone show me how this can be achieved without writing hundreds of lines of JavaScript for something which is so rudimentary in other languages / programming systems.

Hope I understand the question correctly.
Are you trying to allow the customer to set the sort order? And/or allow the customer to categories web app items into groups? Or simply, sort the data by a particular custom field, such a category?
Here's a simply solution I've got working: FAQs grouped into categories. I took this one step further and allowed my customers to even edit their categories, but you can hard code this per site if you like.
1) Collect the web app data into collections, so we can sort by custom fields.
{module_webapps render="collection" id="FAQs - Questions" filter="all" hideEmptyMessage="false" sortType="ALPHABETICAL" collection="faqsQuestions" template=""}
{module_webapps render="collection" id="FAQs - Categories" filter="all" hideEmptyMessage="false" sortType="ALPHABETICAL" collection="faqsCategories" template=""}
2) If you want to list all the categories or your custom fields (which are editable by the client in my case):
{% if faqsCategories.items -%}
        <ul class="faq-categories">
{% for category in faqsCategories.items -%}
            <li><a href="#{{category.name | replace: ' ','-'}}">{{category.name}}</a></li>
{% endfor -%}
        </ul>
{% endif -%}
3) Now display your web app data sorted by custom field type:
{% if faqsCategories.items -%}
{% for category in faqsCategories.items -%}
            <h2>{{category.name}}</h2>
            <ul id="{{category.name | replace: ' ','-'}}" class="accordion">
{% for question in faqsQuestions.items -%}
{% if question.Category_id == category.itemID -%}
                <li>
                    <a href="#panel{{question.itemID}}">{{question.name}}</a>
                    <div id="panel{{question.itemID}}" class="content">
{{question.description}}
                    </div>
                </li>
{% endif -%}
{% endfor -%}
            </ul>
{% endfor -%}
{% endif -%}
The above demonstrates how you can sort web app data by a custom field type.
IMO I don't think this is something BC should be expected to produce (but I could be persuaded )
Hope this helps and I hope I did not go on a tangent.
Cheers,
Stepehn

Office Web Apps is not working

Hi,
We have tried to deploy Office Web Apps Server but, after a number of tests, we haven't been able to view PowerPoint presentations. We tested "everything" but it didn't work.
Finally, to simplify and focus the problem, we just deployed Office Web Apps Server "on its own", that is: just Internal URL, HTTP, Open From URL Enabled and sharing docs from a shared folder in the same server. So we have:
\\wacserver\share\<Docs> (Excel, Word and PowerPoint)
http://wacserver
They work both "/hosting/discovery" and "/op/generate.aspx".
If we try to view Excel doc, it works. If we try to view Word or PowerPoint, id doesn't work.
For PowerPoint, it appears the PowerPoint Web Apps frame (FILE, START SLIDE SHOW, SLIDE - OF -, NOTES...) and, in the center, an animation
"PowerPoint Web App .....". After a couple of minutes, it stops with "Either you've lost network connectivity or our server is to busy to handle your request".
What we have seen from different sources:

These errors appear by Office Web Server running itself, although we are not making a PowrPoint file request.

pid).
We have tried a number of things but none has worked. The farm has just one server and it says ist's unhealthy. We have Windows Server 2008 R2 SP1. We have read some ways to fix the health, like HTTP Activation feature, but it only works
for Windows Server 2012 as fas as we know.
Has anybody experienced something like this or have a posible solution? Office Web Apps Server should be so easy to deploy but we have spent a lot of time with this.
Thank you very much. Your help will be very appreciated.
Kind regards.

Hi John,
According to your description, my understanding is that you cannot view the PowerPoint files in Office Web Apps in SharePoint.
Was there any error when you view the PowerPoint files in Office Web Apps?
You can troubleshoot the error following the link below:
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ff431687.aspx#tshoot
I also recommend to re-configure SharePoint to use the Office Web Apps Server to see if the issue still occurs.

How to enable web-app "parent-last" classloading in WLS 10.3?

Hello,
We are having some issues when using Groovy to execute ant tasks in a webapp. They are due to the classloading order in WLS.
The problem is this :
- Our webapp is using Groovy 1.5.6.
- Groovy 1.5.6 uses ant 1.7. When groovy calls ant tasks such as <untar>, <unjar>, etc, it is passing the <mapper> element, which is supported in ant 1.7.
- When this webapp is deployed in WLS 10.3, Groovy tries to call these ant tasks, but WLS has ant 1.6 which does not support the nested <mapper> element groovy is trying to pass.
- The groovy script blows up with an ant error because of the unsupported element.
- We are packaging ant 1.7 jars in the WEB-INF/lib dir of our WAR file, but WLS is loading the classes from it's own classpath first, so we do not get the 1.7 impl loaded.
The solution is to enable "parent-last" classloading for this webapp, but I can not find any documentation on how to do this.
In Websphere you can set a checkbox for it in the console.
In Orion, you add to the orion-web.xml file this tag <web-app-class-loader search-local-classes-first="true"/>
** In WebLogic, how do you do this?
I have been searching the documentation and asking around, and I can not find an answer yet. Thanks in advance for your help!

Try either a filtering classloader as described here:

Is it even possible to dynamically apply view criteria in an ADF Web App?

This is one of those situations where something that should take an hour ends up taking days.
* I have a view.
* The view has Bind Variables associated with it.
* The view has View Criteria associated with it.
* Each of the View Criteria use different Bind Variables.
* I have a search criteria input page that receives from the user what will ultimately be used to set the bind variables.
* I have a search results page that uses the view to display a table.
* I have the code that dynamically sets view criteria and parameters. It is based on the following:
http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E15523_01/web.1111/b31974/bcadvvo.htm#BCGFHAGA
* This code works great, until the iterator associated with the table binding to the view is initialized. At that time, the view is reset to its defaults, and all of my code's doings are discarded. How do I know this? Because I have gone so far as to run my code that sets view criteria and binding variables dynamically in a phase event handler for the search results page in the render response phase. There is no other point at which to dynamically modify the view.
This is turning into a situation where it seems I will need 5 different views and 5 different pages in order to show a single set of query results. I cannot get dynamically applied view criteria to work in an ADF web app. Has anyone else done it? Can anyone relate to this? Are there any other suggestions before I conclude that it's not possible for this framework to handle this simple scenario?
Thanks

There must be a setting or something that I am still missing here. If I write code just like this and make sure it is executed, I still only see the results of my view executed without the view criteria applied using the default bind variable values that I supplied in the view object.
It's like the fact that I set the bind variables, the view criteria, and executed the view query programmatically is lost on the iterator -- it's like it never happened. What setting is used to ensure that the iterator uses the outcome of what I executed programmatically? There has to be a critical set or setting that I am missing.
Here is the iterator and search region definitions defined in the page def "executables" section:
<executables>
     <iterator Binds="CustomSearchView1" RangeSize="25"
              DataControl="AppModuleDataControl"
              id="CustomSearchView1Iterator"/>
    <searchRegion Binds="CustomSearchView1Iterator"
                  Customizer="oracle.jbo.uicli.binding.JUSearchBindingCustomizer"
                  id="CustomSearchView1Query"/>
    </executables>Here's the "tree" binding in the page def file:
<bindings>
   <tree IterBinding="CustomSearchView1Iterator" id="CustomSearchView1">
      <nodeDefinition DefName="Model.CustomSearchView" Name="CustomSearchView10">
        <AttrNames>
          <Item Value="CustomId"/>
          <Item Value="CustomProjectNumber"/>
          <Item Value="CustomName"/>
          <Item Value="CustomStatus"/>
          <Item Value="CustomStatusDate"/>
        </AttrNames>
      </nodeDefinition>
    </tree>
</bindings>In an effort to take page flow out of this mess, I had modified this to include the search criteria and search results on a single page. So, I now have a "Search" button. When the "Search" button is clicked, the action method does the following:
    public String searchActionListener ()
          // Get search criteria from select one choice and text input controls.
          AppModule appModule =
                ( AppModule ) Configuration.createRootApplicationModule (
                    "Model.AppModule",
                    "AppModuleLocal");
          appModule.customSearch( searchCriteria1,
                                               searchCriteria2,
                                               searchCriteria3 );
    }In my application module this translates to:
    public void customNoticeSearch ( String searchCriteria1, String searchCriteria2, String searchCriteria3)
       CustomSearchViewImpl searchViewImp =
           ( CustomSearchViewImpl ) this.getCustomSearchView1 ();
       searchViewImp.customExecuteQuery ( searchCriteria1, searchCriteria2, searchCriteria3);
    }Finally, in my custom view object implementation code:
    public void customExecuteQuery ( String searchCriteria1, String searchCriteria2, String searchCriteria3 )
        // Set-up the parameters that are part of the core query.
        this.setp_searchCriteria1( searchCriteria1);
        this.setp_searchCriteria2( searchCriteria2);
        if ( searchCriteria3 != null )
            ViewCriteriaManager vcm = this.getViewCriteriaManager();
            ViewCriteria vc = vcm.getViewCriteria ( "WithLastCriteria" );
            this.setp_searchCriteria3( new Number ( searchCriteria3 ) );
            this.applyViewCriteria( vc );
        System.out.println ("This is fun.");
        this.executeQuery();
    }This code executes, but the results table is empty, and I know that there are results, because I can execute use execute with params to execute the base query and get the correct results back.
Thanks for taking a look at this.

Office Web Apps Server Antivirus Exclusions

Hello,
Are there any guidelines for Antivirus exclusions with respect to Office Web Apps server like we have for Exchange, Lync and SharePoint servers. I would highly appreciate if any help in this regard.
We have office web apps server that we are using with Lync 2013 and SharePoint 2013.
Thanks

Hi,
There is no Official documentation about it.
For servers running antivirus software, include all servers running Lync Server 2013 in the exception list in order to provide optimal performance and audio quality.
You may refer to the link below:

Is there a way I can have Business Catalyst automatically import product content from Amazon? (e.g. a Web App I could build, perhaps?)

I'm currently building a site using Drupal that is basically a huge book database and book review site. In order to acquire basic information about certain books I'm using an Amazon module that automatically pulls information into my Drupal database (such as author name, page count, publication date, etc.) based on any ASIN (Amazon Standard Identification Number) I enter. It's a pretty nice arrangement. Also, people can click on a link that leads them to the item on Amazon so that they can purchase it and I can collect a puny affiliate commission. Yay Internet!
But I'd like to use Muse and Business Catalyst instead. I was able to create a Web App version of my database but I can't figure out how to 1) automatically import based on ASIN and 2) automatically link each book record in the database to its page on Amazon. Honestly, if I could just get the info into the database alone I'd be happy.
I'm afraid that Adobe would have to create some sort of connection on their end that interfaces with the Amazon API - and therefore there is no way to create such a website now using Muse. But, of course, I don't know everything so I ask you all: is there a way this can happen now?
Thanks for all of your input!

To do stuff like that will always need custom coding and things like API work. You will never be able to use Muse for that, its a basic site design tool that can hook up to BC modules. You will need to use coding software and have custom API work done for things like this.

Web App Items Slideshow with automated transistion.

Hello everyone. I have been looking for a solution to have web app items within a specific category display in the same manner that a slideshow or slider would AND be able to automatically change from month to month using the expiry dates.
Basically I want a slideshow hero built out of web app items (instead of images) within a certain category. Any suggestions as to how to accomplish this with some control over the speed of the slideshow?
Any help would be appreciated. Thank you.
REFERENCES:
http://laffnetorg.businesscatalyst.com/index.html
The 2nd section that contains "the jambalaya festival". The items are built but how do I make those items display in a slideshow manner?

Not really, its just been asked a lot on these forums and sollutions given, I think your the third on the same thing in a week and people just find it hard to reply to the same thing more then once
As with others its a combination of your web app layouts, javascript (jQuery prefered) and CSS. You have to do the coding, use plugins such as jQuery Cycle 2.

Questions regarding Outlook Web App, Remote Desktop, Remote Web Access and VPN Access

Hi there,
I want to ask a series of questions regarding Outlook Web App, Remote Desktop, Remote Web Access and VPN access and was hoping whether you could help me. Below are my questions to ask you.
Outlook Web App - What do I need to configure in order to get my Exchange account to work with the OWA app on my iPhone? Is Office 360 required on the server that hosts Outlook Web App in our organisation? When I configure the settings and
connect I get the following message "couldn't connect - We couldn't connect to the server. Check your information and make sure it's correct." I can connect with other devices using Outlook Web App.
Remote Desktop - What do I need to configure in order to connect to my computer at work using Remote Desktop on my Windows Phone? When I configure the settings and connect I get the following message "Connection error - We couldn't connect
to the remote PC. Make sure the PC is turned on and connected to the network, and that remote access is enabled. Inquiring minds may find this error code helpful: 0x204" I can connect with other devices using Remote Desktop. There are currently no
RD Server settings in the Remote Desktop app on the Windows Phone and the only way I'm to connect to my PC at work is via Remote Desktop and not to be confused with the one by Microsoft, however the app is on a trial basis and times out every 5 minutes and
can only be used once every hour unless I purchased the app for £2.99 off the App Store but would ideally like to use the Microsoft Remote Desktop app though.
Remote Web Access - What do I need to configure in order to get Remote Web Access on my Windows Phone using a URL? When I log in using a URL I get the following message "There is a problem with this Web page. Please contact the person who manages
the server" I can connect with other devices using Remote Web Access. Also how do you enable the background option for Remote Web Access? I know how to do this in Remote Desktop but not in Remote Web Access. Remote Web Access works on PCs regardless
being onsite and offsite and on my iPhone, the same issue also occurs with my Nokia 5230s regardless of whether I'm using Opera Mobile or Mini or the latest Nokia Browser.
VPN access - How do you configure VPN access on a Windows Phone using VPN? I cannot find the protocols PPTP, L2TP, SSTP and IPsec in order to configure VPN access on the Windows Phone apart from IKEv2.
Many thanks,
RocknRollTim

Any help would be much appreciated.
Kind regards,
RocknRollTim
