Web App Module Problems

On a trial site, set up new web app, set up custom fields (yes, I saved each field). All fields visible in the box to left of screen.
However, when I go to move a field up or down in the list, the entire list of custom fields disappears. They are deleted from the web app.
I've not seen this before and wonder if others are having similar problems?

What browser do you see this happening in?

Why there is spaces between Web App module listings on a web page?
Here is the web page:
http://www.mazine.com/test/testpage.htm
And here is the CSS code:
http://www.mazine.com/test/css/tablestyle.css

I only used Photoshop for the layout. Then I created web-safe images for everything that I used for Dreamweaver. I uploaded the images to the internet and then image sourced them into the code so that they will be viewed properly in the correct circumstances. I haven't used HTML since about 2004 and I wasn't very good then. I've just been thrown back into it and I'm pretty much learning as I go. This is my second attempt because I wanted to make the newsletter more eye-catching. My first one is very basic and without a background image at all and that looks fine in pretty much all email clients. I tested it with Litmus. All except for Windows Live Mail, where the images didn't act as links but as static images. It works fine with the others I tested manually. Those being Gmail, Yahoo and AOL. I will try the display:block and get back to you. Thanks for your suggestions.

Unifying web apps, modules and apps for better discoverability

Hi guys,
With the rise of open platform apps, and the growth of the developer ecosystem, we are facing a few challenges impacting user experience and apps visibility. The main ones that we see are:
Increase the app market place visibility inside the BC admin console
Reduce the confusion among beginners and SBOs generated by the two very similar concepts (web apps & modules) to which add a third one (open admin apps)
Reduce the barriers in front of partners looking for additional functionally so that we increase apps sales to the app developer’s benefit
One way we’re looking to solve this is to unify the Module & Web Apps entries into a single one called Apps, to which we’ll also add the open admin apps. From this Apps top level entry, partners will be able to see the list of apps (on the long run, the current BC modules will also become apps), add a web app and browse the app market to purchase and install custom apps.
The main benefit of this approach will be a really fast and easy discovery of apps and the app market, which will make it easier for new partners to understand the concepts and also drive more apps sales. The downsides (cause this is not a perfect solution) are that those of you who have built training videos need to reshoot some of the, to take this menu change into consideration and the mix of the custom app with web apps.
What do think about that, or what would you suggest us to do to provide better apps visibility and discoverability.
Regards,
Cristinel

Hi Christenel,
I understand what you are trying to do and I think it's a good initiative, but I partiall agree with Liam. The Modules and Webapps should remain where they are.
1. Modules are each an indiviual type of functionality that work in a very specific way. They cannot be changed and are core features of the BC system to meet a very confined function.
2. Webapps are a piece of functionality that also work in a very specific way however, they can be modified to meet a specific need within a set of confined boundries. Simlar to modules they cannot be modified outside their acutal scope. The UX is generic and cannot be customised hence it sits in the middle of a Module and an App but they can be built of the fly. From an non-developer partner, this is a very important difference.
3. Apps ( or what ever they are called) site outside the the scope or boundries of Modules and Webapps and can be complety tailored to meet a specific need as well as being an extension BC capabilities. They don't necessary have to rely on BC functionality.
I can create an App that is in-fact a Webapp, or an App that is a completely independant of BC functionality, or re-write an entire module or existing piece of functionality (like an ecommerce app or a News Module).
With the App Marketplace you are not only going to have a variety of products meeting different business needs, but also work and be styled completly different to each other as no UX can be the same without some sort of overlying UI framework. This will become very confusing when the experience in BC become's a hap-hazard collection of different UI's and UX's.
I have to think more about this by my proposal would be to keep things the way they are but have an App Market Place where you can browse download Apps and install them to the specific area like a module, webapp, ecommerce, CRM etc. BUT the UI needs to be consistent.
The core modules of BC is what's used in any CMS. What I would love to see is BC release the Events Module for example, which I can download, customised to suit my needs and replace the current module with the additional features that I want or have been asking for over the past several years. Like adding an event end date with my own custom tag that I can add it for the additional fields. While still keeping the core functionality like list views, and tags.
My last point is that my understanding is that BC was not going to get involved with an App Marketplace? Has this position changed? and how does this affect Brent's works?

This is the standard way as I understand it also. This works on other app

Yes, the class file is in a jar file. Isn't supposed

standard structure for war files.

Hi,
Can you provide an example? So we can have a look of your existing set-up and help point you in the right direction to help update these images.

Web App - Modules

I would like to insert modules onclick function.
Example:{module_webapps,15133,a} -- wiill list all webapps together
{module_webapps,15133,a,,,,,6} -- this will list all webapp with pagination
{module_webapps,15133,c,1222} --- will list webapps which are classified
I would like load the module when user clicks on different buttons.
I would like to change the module id and insert the modules.
Is it possible to generate or render the module when the user clicks on a button?
Thank you
M Gregory

Hi there. You can not launch a module to render on certain clicks. You would have to use the modules wrapped in a HTML element like a div. you then use JavaScript to show and hide elements on click of link you build.
Another option is to have each module now a separate page. Onclick for the links you have on the main page/template. These then trigger a JavaScript code you write that Ajax loads the content for the page with module want into the current page in a location you want.

How to expose Web App data to search engines

Hi Guys - Need direction please
My website contains a business directory (web app)
The web app items are in a secure zone (the client only want registered/paid members to create their business profiles) = customer submitted web app
It is also required that the directory is indexed by "elgooG".
When searching for a type of business on "elgooG", they want the listed business information found, with a link to the actual detail
e.g.: website.com\directory\Joe-blogs-plumbing
First problem, the web app item sits behind a login (secured)
How would you configure this so that we have the Web App item secured (paid), but also visible to search engines and general public?
Much appreciated

There is no reason for the whole web app to be under a securezone.
Once you assign the owner of the item they can only edit it when they login.
All you need to do is have a listing directory on your site that shows these. IF you do not want that and it only under a securezone of course it will never get indexed by google.
If you want the public listing of these you just need a page and put in the web app module that outputs the list. Things like the edit link wont show unless your logged in.

Need help formatting List (checkbox list) web app items on a page.

See this page: Joseph Cancilla
As you can see from the above example the List (checkbox list) items are all running together. I can't figure out a way to separate the items.
i.e. DANCE: Ballet,Ballroom should read DANCE: Ballet, Ballroom with a space after the comma.
Seems like a simple problem but having a hard time finding a solution. Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks!

Hi Matt, You should read about web apps here:

And module reference here:
http://helpx.adobe.com/business-catalyst/kb/modules-quick-reference.html
If you insert through the admin and click customise you will see the option to use listbackup. You will also see that layout availible via FTP and in the admin or DW.
Here you can see where in the module paramaters the option to choose listbackup occurs:

How do I use the alternate list template when rendering web app items to a page?

I need to have the ability to use the main list template on particular pages, but then use different markup for other pages - is there a way that I can specify the alternate list template within the module tag?

How can I build a Web App with Component Combination

I learned OpenUI 5 for a while, since it's open source version release. It's really a great web front-end framework!
Now I'm working on a little web app. I design it start from a root module. And I wanna make any other view modules as a stand-alone package. (e.g. Something like Widgets can be make as a Component, and I can instance it anywhere I want). From learning of OpenUI, I think Component should be a good choice for my web app module.
But there is some trouble. When I make two Component with a parent-child relationship.Once the child Compont's router execute navTo method, the hash will be replace but not append. And the parent Component will be changed too.
The question is : how to design the route pattern can make the parent-child Components works both fine? Andreas Kunz

Hi Siqi,
currently there is no Child/parent relationship build in the framework, but you could do it.
All your child component need is the first part of the pattern from the parent component, you have to pass this one to the child component, and then create the routes dynamically:
parentPattern + "/myChildComponent"
Then the parent and the child will both react correctly on a hashchange.

Tobias

Voting via Web Apps (i.e., wishlist)

There was apparently a Wiki article referenced in the old forum at
http://www.onlinebusinesswiki.com/index.php/How_to_build_a_Voting_Wishlist_using_Web_Apps
that did not make it into the new knowledgebase.
If anyone recalls what was there, how was that function set up, where users can post only one response/vote per entry on a wishlist or other such list of items?
Thanks -- Bill

Hi Bill,
That was just a blank placeholder for an article we wanted to build, but never did Not sure why someone would refer to it.
Anyway, the wishlist is implemented using a web app and the comments module.
The web app module supports sorting on the number of comments. This is the module format and the last parameter is "sort".
{module_webapps,ID,filter,itemID,notUsed,targetFrame,useBackup,resultsPerPage,hideEmptyMes sage,rowLength,Sort}
If you place "comments" inside the sort parameter it will display the items with the largest number of Comments first.
If you go to http://www.businesscatalyst.com/wish-list/list you'll find the New Wish link on top of the page. That's just a web app item creation form.
Below it is a list of web app items. The number of comments is displayed by {tag_commentcount} in the list layout.
Detail layout simply has a comment form in it with {module_ratingfeedback} below it which displays all the comments.
That's it really.
If you don't want to capture the comments you can prefill the field with somethign like "I vote!" and hide it.
I hope that helps. Let us knwo if you have any further questions about it.
Cheers,

Web Start - Can't Connect To App Modules

Has anyone had the problem of on being able to connect to their application modules deployed to Ora AS 10g when using web start? We can successfully use the tester on our local and deployed configurations for the app modules. We can also successfully run our JClient application locally and use our app modules deployed on the app server (and locally). We recently upgraded our containers from jdev 9.0.5.2 level to 10.1.2 level. Here is the stack trace I get:

Hi,
Did you have a look at
http://www.oracle.com/technology/products/jdev/collateral/papers/10g/adfjclientbcwebstart.pdf
If you are deploying your BC modules as EJB then this document also contains information of how to test this deployment within the BC tester.

Use blog module or web apps for Blog posts?

We are considering whether or not we should use a web app or continue to use the blog module for our client's blogs.
Is anyone using web apps for their blogs, and if yes, what is your feedback on it?
Or could someone tell me if BC will fix the blog problems (in regards to SEO) within the next 12 months?
Thank you.

Bc Blog can still do well seo wise. Many get to OTT in that regard I feel.
Blog I hope gets fixes but a web app just does not quite offer the features at this stage to make a good blog. Not till the new web app engine next year.

URGENT: Getting app module service method result and calling web service??

We have a .jar from another vendor that allows us to interact with an FOP rendering process. This .jar has methods that allow us to pass several parameters which results in the creation of the PDF which is stored in the database.
We need to create the XML, which we've done, via view objects and a method in our application module. The developers at this point, have placed the code to call the service method into the model code that generates the XML. The actual .jar file for this is in the viewcontroller area.
Is this a "reasonable" approach? ( that is, importing view object jar in model)
The web service needs to have several parameters sent to it, most of which are configured in the web.xml. They are now being passed via a data action to the model's service method.
Shouldn't the data action be written more like the following - note: some questions in here as well...
public void onShowPdf( DataActionContext ctx )
// note, you can get here from 5 different places in the application and we need to be able to retrieve the bindings from these separate places for proper generation... how??
AppModule am = (AppModule) getAm();
String strXML = am.getXML(...);
// get web.xml values from session context...
PDFArchiver stub = new PDFArchiver();
stub.generate( send prms here );
// the next page just needs to have 3 of the parameters exposed from this page to yield the results of the generated pdf (retrieve from db)
// what would be the best way to get the parameters over there?
} // onShowPDF
after this data action, it simply forwards to the next page, which has a frame to display the pdf with an [ok] button at the bottom. The pdf is rendered via a Servlet.
one last question...
Right now, the service method was dropped on the data action, and it is automatically invoked ( we've bound the 8 parameters to it by over-riding initializeMethodParameters). If we were to switch it so the method RETURNED the XML, how would we get the results back while INSIDE A DATA ACTION? I could see if we called it by invoking a service method from the app module instance, but how do you do it in the lifecycle of the data action??
Whew, that's all the questions for now.
Any help, again, would be GREATLY appreciated.

Most of the items in this previous post have been addressed. The one problem that remains is that we use a servlet to display the PDF. The servlet reads 3 parameters from the URL to send to a service method that reads and streams the PDF to the browser.
HOWEVER, the user can view source and then paste parameters into the URL and view whatever he wants. So:
1. How can we prevent the servlet parameters from being seen inside the source? OR, how can we simply prevent the user from invoking the view pdf servlet with other parameters?
2. We've temporarily, written a data action (displayPDF) which has no service method. In the findForward data action, we grab the bindings that the servlet needs from other pages (4 different binding containers), then invoke the service method and write the data to the response object. This seems to work. So, our page has an iframe with the src="displayPDF.do".
Again, should this be done another way? Seems strange to have a data action that "acts like a servlet"...
Thanks for feedback.
