Hello, im on a Umbraco 8 site where I use uSync. I need to create a custom uSync exporter (or ruleset, or whatver). So that I only export stuff from a certain node and it's descentants. Anyone know how this can be acheived?

Hi for v8 you can do that with the config. https://docs.jumoo.co.uk/usync/8.x/content/contentHandler

yeah , it will be something like (although i would check was the 'path' value looks like in the usync config file for the item)

xml
<Handler Alias="contentHandler" Enabled="true">
    <Add Key="Include" Value="/StartPage" />
    <Add Key="RulesOnExport" Value="true" />
</Handler>

would that also include media? or should i ducpliate a with alias="mediaHandler" aswell?

that will be for content I think it also does the same on Media. so you would need to do it on the mediaHandler config as well.

thank you so much Kevin

it would depend on the media folders you have, so the mediaHandler will look at them rather than the content bit. (if you just want to create a export of the start page and all the media that might be in it, you can use uSync.Exporter to do that - there is a 60 day trial when you install it, that might be all you need 🙂 )

my client won't really pay for anything

Well if you can do it quickly you could do it in the trial period 😉

am I able to have another trial?

Yeah if it's already expired then maybe not 😔

i'll wink my eye at you in that oh so very special way if you could unlock it again

Yes it will still scan everything, only export the stuff that matches

Question @Kevin Jump , if I get my client to pay up for a license. does that license cover both my old site, Umbraco 8, and the new one, Umbraco 13?

Hi, yes, it should (assuming its the same site just getting upgraded ?)

yeah

yeah - that's ok, really just saying if the v8 site was like for a totally diffrent thing / client than the v13 one it would be classes as diffrent, but upgrades are fine

ah no, it's the same thing, just upgrading from umb8 to umb13

no worries
