I have a custom blocklist property as part of a document type. It's very simple and only accepts one block component type. I am trying to access this property in my code. While following the umbraco documentation here: https://docs.umbraco.com/umbraco-cms/fundamentals/backoffice/property-editors/built-in-umbraco-property-editors/block-editor/block-list-editor, It tells me it returns an IEnumerable. On that same page, it says that I can pull the value as that or BlockListModel... but with either, it returns null.

if (content.HasProperty("locations"))
{
    var locations = content.GetValue<BlockListModel>("locations");
    (or)
    var locations = content.GetValue<IEnumerable<BlockListItem>>("locations");
    ...
}

If I pull the value as a string or dynamic object, it will show as:

{"layout":{"Umbraco.BlockList":[{"contentUdi":"umb://element/74437d1928534a9287430056e140b99b"},{"contentUdi":"umb://element/382ddba6783948b28696798b3b6dad16"}]},"contentData":[{"contentTypeKey":"0285ad7f-763f-4bc5-80be-45f85f8a39e6","udi":"umb://element/74437d1928534a9287430056e140b99b","city":"Colville","stateA":"[\"WA\"]","name":"Colville Toyota"},{"contentTypeKey":"0285ad7f-763f-4bc5-80be-45f85f8a39e6","udi":"umb://element/382ddba6783948b28696798b3b6dad16","stateA":"[\"OR\"]","name":"Coos Bay Toyota","city":"Coos Bay"}],"settingsData":[]}

In converting to the BlockListModel, it has to be erroring causing it to return null; right? I need to pull the values this way because I am using those values to calculate other properties and then save that property to the document. Anyone running into this or have a solution? Is this enough info? I feel like I've tried quite a bit without success.

I'm getting the following error when starting up my Umbraco site, does anyone have any pointers in where to look?

Hello everyone, I am encountering some challenges with handling Save and Publish events in Umbraco, specifically using SaveAndPublishHandler class. Here are the details of my issue: **Problem Description**: I have implemented a SaveAndPublishHandler class in Umbraco to handle Saved and Published events for content items. The goal is to send an HTTP POST request to an external endpoint whenever content is saved or published with a specific ParentId (in my case, ParentId 1249). *Code : *

c#
        public SaveAndPublishHandler(IContentService contentService)
        {
            _contentService = contentService;
        }

        public void Initialize()
        {
            ContentService.Saved += ContentService_Saved;
        }

        public void Terminate()
        {
            ContentService.Saved -= ContentService_Saved;
        }

        private void ContentService_Saved(IContentService sender, SaveEventArgs<IContent> e)
        {
            foreach (var content in e.SavedEntities)
            {
                if (content.ParentId == 1249)
                {
                    var dataToSend = new { ContentId = content.Id, Title = content.Name };
                    var json = Newtonsoft.Json.JsonConvert.SerializeObject(dataToSend);
                    var contentToSend = new StringContent(json, Encoding.UTF8, "application/json");

                    using (var httpClient = new HttpClient())
                    {
                        var endpointUrl = "http://localhost:65137/umbraco/surface/UpdateApprovedAccount/UpdateApprovedAccountV2"; 

                        var response = httpClient.PostAsync(endpointUrl, contentToSend).Result;

                        var responseContent = response.Content.ReadAsStringAsync().Result;
                    }
                }
            }
        }

Composing :

c#
public void Compose(Composition composition) {
composition.Components().Append<SaveAndPublishHandler>();
}

What are the recommended minimum requirements for hosting Umbraco (13+) on-prem? I can only seem to find that the minimum recommended Azure tier is S2 but nothing about on prem. What would the equivalent for a server be?

Hi there 👋, I'm trying to host my Umbraco 13 CMS on my debian server. I installed .net8.0, umbraco (along with its templates), created a .service file so the CMS can run as a service and ran

dotnet publish --os linux

. Before running the service i started the web with dotnet build and synchornized some files so it installation would match my lcoal dev. That said, with

dotnet build

Umbraco worked perfectly fine - frontend, backend, file handling all went well. But with the service running the backend doesn't seem to work anymore. The browser is trying to fetch files like https://mydomain.com/umbraco/login/login.iife.js but the kestrel server just returns a 404. Nothing obvious is logged. I didn't find anything similiar yet - has anyone an idea what might be the cause / solution to the cause? This is my .service file:

[Unit]
Description=Noels umbraco CMS web
Wants=network.target
After=network.target

[Service]
WorkingDirectory=/var/www/html/myWebProject/
ExecStart=/usr/bin/dotnet /var/www/html/myWebProject/bin/Release/net8.0/linux-x64/publish/myWebProject.dll

Thanks!

I am on my way to create some custom database tables i have follow this pice og documentation https://docs.umbraco.com/umbraco-cms/tutorials/getting-started-with-entity-framework-core But when i try the CLI command "dotnet ef migrations add AddResevertionTables --context ..." I get an error: Unable to create a 'DbContext' of type ''. The exception 'Unable to resolve service for type 'Microsoft.EntityFrameworkCore.DbContextOptions`1[Project.WebSite.Infrastructure.DbContexts.ProjectDbContext]' while attempting to activate 'Project.WebSite.Infrastructure.DbContexts.ProjectDbContext'.' was thrown while attempting to create an instance. For the different patterns supported at design time, see https://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?linkid=851728 But have no clue why this happign and can not move on can somebody help me

I'm a Tailwind newbie and although it's still feels a bit "wrong" I'm persevering with it. One issue I've come across is what to do in an RTE stylesheet. Is there some trick to getting the TW classes to output to the front end while still showing the manual styles in the editor itself? Thanks.

In a class using IUmbracoContextFactory, I'm trying to get the Guid of a node for later use, but all I get is a load of 00000's. I've tried many things but none work. I think this should work but it doesn't:

var orderConfirmedGuid = siteRoot.DescendantsOrSelf<GeneralPage>().Where(x => x.Name == "Order Confirmed").FirstOrDefault().GetUdi().AsGuid();

I can get the Id, so I know the Name string is correct, but not the Guid. Any ideas? Thanks.

From v13 methods such as umbracohelpers

ContentSingleAtXPath

is being deprecated. For example, we get our global settings node as such:

var globalSettings = (GlobalSettings)_umbracoHelper.ContentSingleAtXPath("//globalsettings");

How can we get the same published content but adhering to current conventions? Looking at the documentation there is a method

Content

that takes a

guid

, but we do not wish to rely on a hard coded guid for this scenario. We need to base this on what the slug is named within the backoffice. And yes, we know there might be other approaches that do not rely on the slug to solve this, but this is our current scenario and not the only instance we need to cater to.
