Help needed with customizing {tag_attributes}

forums_noreply@adobe.com — Tue, 14 Oct 2014 09:13:47 GMT

I've tried searching for information on how best to customize {tag_attributes} but not finding much help so hoping someone can help on here.

I would like to know if it is possible and if so how to do the following.

1/ For a mandatory product attribute with a drop down list (or radio button) how do I automatically select the first option. I assume I use javascript to achieve this but I don't know how you select the correct elements. Has anyone some example code?

2/ When an option is selected (not mandatory) which has am additional price how do I recalculate and show the product total?

3/ Can the tag_attributes style be configured (I assume with css) can anyone provide a simple example I could follow?

Would appreciate anyone's help on this.

Thanks

Gavin

Customizing Shopping cart is empty. Continue Shopping message

forums_noreply@adobe.com — Mon, 21 May 2012 06:14:26 GMT

In this solution you'll have to suppress the alerts and display the messages from within them inside the body. Then you'll make a call to a web page using Ajax and render that page inside the cart.

So, first you need to download the following 2 files and upload them to your site:

http://mgnewsyd.worldsecuresystems.com/emptycart.js

http://mgnewsyd.worldsecuresystems.com/jquery-1.4.2.min.js

Then, go to your site-wide template and add the following line inside the <head>. This should be a template that wraps around your shopping cart:

Note that you can use the same method to replace all of the annoying alerts with in-body messages.

Note that there will be two classes rendered in the paragraph that contains the message, alertMessageHolder_success and alertMessageHolder_error. You should style these from within your stylesheet.

e.g.

.alertMessageHolder_success{
--all the proberties that will make this message look nice and positive
}

Fianlly, you need to create a web page with the URL /empty_cart_page.htm. That page will be called and displayed instead of empty shopping cart message. You can place anything you want in there. Make sure to disable the template on that page.

New Content Editor for Business Catalyst users

forums_noreply@adobe.com — Wed, 13 Mar 2013 14:26:39 GMT

Overview

InContext Editing will be replaced with a newly designed experience that is focused on preserving the design integrity of the site and is compatible with additional browsers and devices.

How to use the new editing experience

Enabling the feature

Enabling this feature under Site Settings > Beta Features > Content management > Upgraded Content Editor will replace the 'Content' tab from the main navigation ribbon (which links to the existing InContext Editing feature) with an 'Edit' tab that links to the new Editor.

Defining editable content

In the Edit Page in Admin, or using the File Manager, you can mark elements from the page's content to be Editable Regions by using a custom attribute on those elements:

<div ice:editable="editable region type">
     SBO editable content here
</div>

List of ice:editable values:

line

single line text; all formatting and break lines are ignored
can applied only to: p, h1, h2, h3, h4, h5, h6, pre, address, blockquote, div

multiline

multi line text; break lines are allowed, all formatting is ignored
can applied only to: p, h1, h2, h3, h4, h5, h6, pre, address, blockquote, div

image

change and resize image; image is server side resized using dimensions defined on the img tag
can be applied only to: img tag
Default folder for uploading new images can be defined in a tag of the page. For example adding this meta tag below to your page or template will pre-select the "/images" folder whenever you select "From My Computer".
```
<meta name="upload-root-folder" content="/images" />
```

link

change link; can insert internal (site) or external links
can be applied only to: "a" tag

html

html text; some formatting is allowed;
partners can specify the formatting elements made available to business owners by adding the ice:options attribute on that tag. You can list the Editor options in the ice:options attribute, comma separated. Separators (for option groups) can be specified using the pipe character "|".
- Options allowed: bold, italic, deleted, separator (|), fontcolor, link, image, unorderedlist, orderedlist, outdent, indent, alignment, alignleft, alignright, aligncenter, justify
- Example:
```
<div ice:editable="html" ice:options="bold,italic,deleted,|,link">
```
can be applied only to: div, td and th tags
images inside html Editable Regions can be edited by clicking on them, which will bring up the image Editor.

section

allows duplication and deletion of an html element
can be applied only to the following HTML tags: tr
other Editable Region types cannot be applied to the same HTML element.
can contain any other Editable Regions types, except other sections
the "Duplicate" action inserts a copy of the section element, right after the section element
the "Delete" action removes the section element and its contents from the document.

content

applied to Content Holder modules, it allows for transparent, in-page editing of Content Holders
the content of the Content Holder itself must be marked with ice:editable attributes from above, to define what is editable within the Content Holder
the Content Holder must be referenced by its name, not by its id. If you reference it by its id, saving will not work
The Content Holder cannot contain another Content Holder

Example:

{module_contentholder,name="Name of Content Holder" ice:editable="content"}

Restrictions on Editable Regions

To assist partners provide a seamless editing experience and prevent users from breaking layouts, we restrict the html tags an Editable Regions can be applied as well as what HTML mark-up is allowed inside an Editable Region.

Editable Regions (of any kind) cannot be applied to any of the following self-closing tags:

<link />
<meta />
<area />
<br />
<col />
<hr />
<input />
<param />

Also, Editable Regions cannot be applied to any of the following inline level tags:

b, big, i, small, tt
abbr, acronym, cite, code, dfn, em, kbd, strong, samp, var
a, bdo, img, map, object, q, script, span, sub, sup
button, input, label, select, textarea

Additionally, Editable Regions cannot be applied to any FORM related elements:

<form>
<fieldset>
<legend>
<textarea>
<select>

Other restrictions

Editable Regions cannot be nested
Editable Regions cannot be applied to elements containing Liquid mark-up. Liquid mark-up will be overwritten by its generated HTML if the mark-up is inside an Editable Region.

The following tags are not allowed inside an Editable Region:

iframe, script, map, area, object, embed, video, audio

Using the in-context Editor

Once the Partner has defined the Editable Regions, the SBO can access the Editor to edit the content, by clicking the Edit Tab.

Clicking on the Edit button will open the Editor, displaying the Start Page of the default domain of the site.

To reach other pages, SBOs can click on the various links from a page.
If the link is outside of any Editable Region, simply clicking on the link will navigate to the corresponding page.
If the link is inside an Editable Region, hovering over the link will display a green arrow that indicates clicking on the link is active.

If the link is marked as editable itself, hovering over it will display a context-menu which can be clicked to follow the link.

Only Pages will be loaded in the Editor, other type of content, which is dynamic (blogs, web apps) cannot be open in the Editor.
Only the content of the Page is loaded in the Editor. If the page has a Template set, this will not show up in the Editor. Styles and Javascript defined within the page will be loaded; styles and Javascript defined in the Template will not load.

If the Page does not have any Editable Regions defined, an error message will be displayed: "This page does not contain any content marked as editable."

If trying to navigate to a link that is not of Page type (it's a blog, web app etc.), an error message will be displayed: 'That page doesn't exist, or is of a type not supported for editing.".

Publishing the Page will save the live version of the page.

If the site uses device-specific folders (Settings > Mobile Support), the dropdown from the top bar can be used to access the various device-specific verisions of the current page.

Current limitations

Draft versions of the pages are not supported

Backwards compatibility with markup for InContext Editing

The new Editor supports some limited backwards compatibility with the markup used for InContext Editing.

The ice:editable="*" and ice:editable="<options here>" used in InContext Editing are backwards compatible with the new Editor.

The complete list of options for InContext Editing Editable Regions is:

bold, italic, underline, align_justify, align_right, align_center, align_left, font_face, font_size, indent, outdent, ordered_list, unordered_list, paragraph_styles, background_color, font_color, css_styles, media, hyperlink

Note that this usage is now deprecated, if using the new Editor. The following options: paragraph_styles, css_styles, and media do not have a correspondent with the new Editor and will be ignored.

Repeating groups and repeating regions used in InContext Editing are also compatible with the new Editor.

Adding a domain name to your site and taking site live

forums_noreply@adobe.com — Tue, 13 Mar 2012 02:22:31 GMT

This document will help you take your site live, once you have built your site in trial mode, you're happy with it and want to add a domain name to it.

Step 1. Obtain a domain name

If you have an existing domain, move to step 2.

If you don't have a domain name you have to purchase it from a domain name registrar. Business Catalyst does not sell domain names. Some popular registrars are GoDaddy, NetRegistry, list of top 10 in US. Google for more.

Step 2. Upgrading a site

To add a domain name to a site, you will need to upgrade it first. You can read this detailed tutorial or follow the steps listed below.

If you're a partner you can do this through Partner Portal > My Sites tab. Click on the site you wish to upgrade, click Upgrade Site button and go through the upgrade process.

If you're a business owner you will either need to contact your partner to go through the above steps or you'll need to click the green Upgrade button in the top righ corner of your site's admin console and go through the upgrade process.

Step 3. Pointing/redelegating your domain to your trial site on Business Catalyst

Now that you have a domain name and your site is upgraded you need to point that domain to your trial site on Business Catalyst. You have two options in this case:

1. Redelegate domain to BC's DNS servers

If you choose this option, you are basically giving DNS management to BC's DNS servers. You must use this option if you with to use BC's mail hosting.

Redelagation involves changing DNS server addresses at your registrar to BC's DNS server addresses. When you log in to DNS management tool on the registrar's website you will find a section which allows you to specify DNS servers. This is where you need to enter the following DNS server addrress:

ns1.worldsecuresystems.com (54.236.190.129) - primary DNS server
ns2.worldsecuresystems.com (54.246.209.121) - secondary DNS server
ns3.worldsecuresystems.com (54.252.148.151)

The IP addresses are optional. Som registrars require them and some don't. If the registrar doesn't have the fields for them then you don't need to supply them.

Here is an example of where you would change DNS servers in GoDaddy's control panel.

If you're not sure who your registar is you can obtain this information with "whois" utility. http://whois.domaintools.com/ is a free online whois service you can use.

2. Host your domain with external DNS provider and point A-records to your BC site

If you choose this option you will not be able to host mail on Business Catalyst. In this case your DNS will be managed by an external DNS provider and all you'll have to do is to create A-records that point to Business Catalyst IP address and also define an SPF record for the domain. BC has a few IP addresses for each data center. You will have to know which data center your site is hosted on before you can create an A-record.

The following are the IP addresses for all the BC data centers:

United States data center - 54.236.190.114 or 54.236.189.64 or 54.236.189.61
European Union data center - 54.246.209.120 or 54.246.209.119 or 54.246.209.93
Australia data center - 54.252.148.183 or 54.252.148.191 or 54.252.148.134

To determine the datacenter your site is located on, try pinging the system (*.businesscatalyst.com) or secure (*.worldsecuresystems.com) subdomains for your site. To ping a site, follow these instructions:

On Windows
- go to Start->Run(or search)->cmd.exe
On Mac
- search and open Terminal
Then,
- type in the phrase in italic: ping yoursite.businesscatalyst.com
  - replace yoursite with your subdomain
- Look at the IP you see on the screen - and use it or the other 2 IPs for the same datacenter, at your registrar

*NOTE: you might get "Request timed out" when doing the ping command. This is normal, and it doesn't mean that the site is down

Make sure that you don't forget www subdomain. You will usually have to create 2 A-records, one for your domain and for the www version of your domain. You can also create a CNAME between www and non-www URLs.

SPF changes

If the domain has no SPF record defined, you should add one with the following value:

"v=spf1 mx include:worldsecuresystems.com ~all"

If the domain already has an SPF record, you need to include the following value:

"include:worldsecuresystems.com"

For detailed instructions about SPF records, please read this article.

Step 4. Adding a domain to your site

So, now that your site is upgraded, you have obtained the domain name and pointed or redelegated it to Business Catalyst, you will have to add it to your site to tie in the trial site you've built with that domain name.

Log in to admin console of your website by appending /adminconsole to the staging/trial URL
Select Site Settings -> Site Domains and then click New Domain.
The Add New Domain modal will pop-up, enter your domain name in its plain format (e.g mydomain.com).
If you have not redelegated your domain name, expand the Advanced section and select the 'Use and external DNS server' option
Click Save.

See this tutorial for detailed instructions.

How do I control webmail spam defaults?

forums_noreply@adobe.com — Wed, 10 Sep 2014 23:44:26 GMT

Using Business Catalyst and have a number of email folders set up. One of the boxes forwards mail on to another, non-BC domain.

At that non-BC domain are many more emails than show up in the BC webmail In folder.

All BC spam control is set to 'default,' but I can't find any place that says what that default is. And I'd like to turn it off, since some of the email that BC is saying are spam are not.

I am also a domain administrator, and there is no place I can find to set systemwide email controls, parameters, or preferences. Each mailbox needs to be separately specced.

Display link if wholesaler logged in or alternate link if customer logged in?

forums_noreply@adobe.com — Wed, 27 Aug 2014 14:48:11 GMT

Hi,

I have a website that sells products to customers and wholesalers.

I have setup a separate secure area for both the customer and the distributor. (to view past orders/specials etc)

In top right of my site - they can click a "Login/Register" button that takes then to the login / registration page.

Here they login as a customer (or if a wholesaler they are asked to go to the wholesaler Login Page).

Once logged in the top right "Login/Register' button changes to a "Hello Name" and an "Account Overview" link.

The problem is I have to hard code the "Account Overview" link so it can only link to either the customer or wholesaler secure area overview page.

Is there anyway I can set it to recognize if a Wholesaler or a Customer logs in and display the appropriate link?

Any help would be appreciated.

How to set up Google Analytics Ecommerce Tracking for BC

forums_noreply@adobe.com — Sat, 29 Sep 2012 23:16:52 GMT

I've successfully added ecommerce tracking for Google Analytics to my Business Catalyst sites. I haven't found any [free] definitive guides out there, so I thought I'd share.

Business Catalyst files

For the tracking script, the Business Catalyst file you need to have opened is /Layouts/OnlineShop/order_receipt-US.html.

However, you also need to add the Google analytics script - with out the ecommerce modification - to all the pages on your site. I recommend putting in the <head> of your page templates.

Google Analytics Ecommerce Tracking

To start tracking Business Catalyst ecommerce transactions with Google Analytics, here are the steps you need to take.

Log into Google Analytics and navigate to the profile settings page for the Business Catalyst site. Under "Ecommerce Settings" select "Yes, this is an E-Commerce Site".
While still in analytics, go to the "Tracking Code" tab under your profile. Don't grab the code from the Standard tab. Instead, select "Advanced".
- When someone goes through the cart on a Business Catalyst site, the domain switches to *.worldsecuresystems.com. So you need to select "Multiple top-level domains".
- I would also select the check boxes for AdWords campaigns, DoubleClick data and Track online ad campaigns from other providers
- The script Google shows you on this page is what you should put on all your page templates.

Now you're ready to grab that code and modify it for ecommerce tracking.

The code given in Google Analytics should go on all the pages of your website. The easiest way to accomplish that is to put it on all your templates. However, there's one more step.

You then need to modify the code for your receipt page as shown below. Finally, place that modified code on the /Layouts/OnlineShop/order_receipt-US.html page. Here's what it should look like modified. [You'll need to close the script tags, of course.]

    
            
        script type="text/javascript"
        var _gaq = _gaq || [];
        _gaq.push(['_setAccount', 'UA-*******-*']);  // your Google Analytics profile id
        _gaq.push(['_setDomainName', 'example.com']); // your domain name - not *.worldsecuresystems.com, but the domain you've chosen for your site
        _gaq.push(['_setAllowLinker', true]);
        _gaq.push(['_trackPageview']);
        _gaq.push(['_addTrans', "{tag_orderid}", // Order ID
                   "", // Affiliation
                   "{tag_amount}", // Total
                   "", // Tax
                   "", // Shipping
                   "", // City
                   "", // State
                   "" // Country
                  ]);
        _gaq.push(['_trackTrans']);
        
        (function() {
            var ga = document.createElement('script');
            ga.type = 'text/javascript';
            ga.async = true;
            ga.src = ('https:' == document.location.protocol ? 'https://' : 'http://') + 'stats.g.doubleclick.net/dc.js';
            var s = document.getElementsByTagName('script')[0];
            s.parentNode.insertBefore(ga, s);
        })();
    /script

Result

You won't see all the details about the purchase in Google Analytics. That's because Business Catalyst does not pass all the needed variables to the order receipt page. [Perhaps that's a feature request.]

However, it's still valuable to know the order ID and revenue in Google Analytics - knowing which sources drive your revenue is critical. It's also pretty easy to grab the order ID [under Ecommerce > Transactions in Google Analytics] and look in your Business Catalyst site for the order. Here's a screenshot of the results I saw on the first day.

Customizing Web Forms

Setting up a form to email using Web Forms

Customizing an Auto Responder

You can customize the way that auto-responder emails are sent to people filling in your web forms.

Within the Site Manager options you need to go to Web Forms, click on the relevant Web Form and click on Setup Auto Responder.

Fill in the following fields:

Email From Address - Use the following format: "John Smith" johnsmith@yourdomain.com
Email Subject
Email Format - HTML or Text (Text emails are less likely to be blocked by a spam filter)
Template - You can choose an HTML template. Edit these in Admin -> Manage Site-Wide Templates

To personalise the response, you can use the following tags (click on the "Tag Manager" icon in the editor):

{tag_emailaddress} Email address of the recipient (email address must be present on form)
{tag_recipientname} Full name of the recipient (firstname and lastname must be present on form)
{tag_webformresults} Summary of the form that was filled out (only use if email format is HTML)
{tag_recipientfirstname} First name of the recipient (first name must be present on the form)
{tag_recipientlastname} Last name of the recipient (last name must be present on the form)
{tag_verificationurl} The verification URL for customer to select and opt-in to your newsletter

Disabling an Auto Responder

You can disable the auto responder if desired. To do this, you will need to alter the form action URL by adding &SAR=False

For example:

action="/FormProcessv2.aspx?.....&SAR=False"

Disabling the Secure Zone login details email

Upon creating a webform which collects the username and password fields and subscribes the submitting contact to a Secure Zone an email is sent to the submitter with the login details he can use for that secure zone. If you wish to disable the sending of this email simpy append the following to the action URL of the webform:

action="/FormProcessv2.aspx?.....&SWE=False"

Customizing your Web Form after inserting

Use this method when customizing an individual form, used only in one place. Web forms are customized after they are inserted on a web page and you can then customize it by editing the HTML code, adding CSS classes or replacing buttons with images. You can also re-arrange the fields. Any customizations you make will only affect the copy of the web form on the page.

Note: Its important that you test the web form after making changes to it by making a few submissions through it. This ensures that whilst customizing the web form you have not broken the form.

If you make changes to your web form via Modules -> Web Forms then you must re-insert your web form on any web page where the web form was previously placed.

Collecting anniversary dates using a date picker

For each customer you can store up to 5 anniversary dates. These dates are used for loyalty email campaigns. Refer to an earlier section for more details. To capture this information, include the following your web form:

<input name="Anniversary1" id="Anniversary1" readonly onfocus="displayDatePicker('Anniversary1);return false;">

You can also replicate the above for anniversaries 2 to 5, e.g. Anniversary2, Anniversary3 and so forth

Customizing your Web Form using the 'Customize Web Form' option

Use this method when you have inserted the Web Form as a module. This method allows you to make a change to the form via the 'Customize Web Form' option and have this automatically update throughout the site where you have inserted the web form as a module:

When updating the web form via the 'Customize Web Form' option, this allows you to update all instances of this form from one central place.

Note: You can not insert a web form as a module in your Registration(buy) layout for your ecommerce shop as this must be inserted as HTML.

Combining the first name and last name into a full name

You can combine the First Name and Last Name fields of a web form as a single 'Full Name' field by modifying the Form HTML Code, and changing the First Name input HTML Code to 'Fullname'....

For example, this field:

<tr>
<td><label for="FirstName">First Name <span class="req">*</span></label><br />
<input type="text" name="FirstName" id="FirstName" class="cat_textbox" maxlength="255" /></td>
</tr>

Can be updated like this:

<tr>
<td><label for="FullName">Full Name <span class="req">*</span></label><br />
<input type="text" name="FullName" id="FullName" class="cat_textbox" maxlength="255" /></td>
</tr>

Then delete the 'Last Name' input field alltogether.

You will need to update the javascript validation at the bottom of the form. You will need to look for the following:

if (theForm.FirstName) why += isEmpty(theForm.FirstName.value, "First Name");if (theForm.LastName) why += isEmpty(theForm.LastName.value, "Last Name");

You need to remove the last name part completly. Delete:

if (theForm.LastName) why += isEmpty(theForm.LastName.value, "Last Name");

You will then need to update the FirstName references to FullName as below:

if (theForm.Fullname) why += isEmpty(theForm.Fullname.value, "Full Name");

A quick example of this can be found here: http://jsfiddle.net/yeqgU/2/

Once completed, the system will separate a fullname (i.e. Tom Jones) into a first and last name (i.e. Firstname-Tom, Lastname-Jones) upon form submission.

Attaching web forms to Contacts instead of Cases

Sometimes you want to attach a custom web form field to the customer record rather than the case. You can do this by simply appending a variable to the action URL of the web form

Append ECRM=1 to the action URL of the web form

Example:

action="/FormProcessv2.aspx?WebFormID=11557&OID=248384&OTYPE=1&EID=0&CID=0&ECRM=1

Adding multiple file attachment fields to the web form

To add multiple file attachment fields to your form, you can simply copy the HTML code of the original field and paste it between the <form> tags.

This is the example of the code:

<input name="FileAttachment" class="FileAttachment" class="cat_textbox" type="file">

You can also change the name and id of the new field in the following manner:

<input type="file" name="FileAttachment1" id="FileAttachment1" class="cat_textbox" /><input type="file" name="FileAttachment2" id="FileAttachment2" class="cat_textbox" />

This will then allow you modify the JavaScript validation if you would like to make any of these fields mandatory.For example, where you see:

if (theForm.FileAttachment) why += isEmpty(theForm.FileAttachment.value, "File Attachment");

You can change the (theForm.Fileattachment1) to look like below:

if (theForm.FileAttachment1) why += isEmpty(theForm.FileAttachment1.value, "File Attachment");

duplicate this for fileattachment2.

Please have in mind that the upload cannot exceed 150 MB and only the first file will be included in the workflow notification even though multiple files are uploaded.

Preventing autocomplete on web form fields

A lot of browsers have an 'AutoComplete' function which enables them to 'remember' previously submitted information to that for firld.

If you don't want to the browser to pre-populate the field you need to place autocomplete="off" attribute into that field.

For Example -

<input type="text" maxlength="255" class="cat_textbox" autocomplete="off" id="FirstName" name="FirstName" />

Redirecting the Web Form confirmation page

To redirect a Web Form submission to the another page, you will need to go to the page you have placed the Web Form on and view the HTML of this page. Find the form action URL, this should looks similar to the below:

Change this by appending the below to the action URL:

&PageID=/Results.htm

Where Results.htm is the URL of the page of the next Web Form

For example:

Pre-populate web form fields

You can use the following module tags to pre-populate the form:

{module_fullname}	{module_emailaddress}
{module_firstname}	{module_lastname}
{module_title}	{module_company}
{module_homeaddress}	{module_homecity}
{module_homezip}	{module_homestate}
{module_homecountry}	{module_workaddress}
{module_workcity}	{module_workstate}
{module_workzip}	{module_workcountry}
{module_webaddress}	{module_workphone}
{module_workfax}	{module_homephone}
{module_homefax}	{module_cellphone}
{module_dob}	{module_username}
{module_password}	{module_shippingaddress}
{module_shippingcity}	{module_shippingzip}
{module_shippingstate}	{module_shippingcountry}
{module_billingaddress}	{module_billingcity}
{module_billingzip}	{module_billingstate}
{module_billingcountry}

Note: This only works inside Secure Zones, because the subscriber must be logged into a site in order for the system to recognize them and populate the form with the relevant data.

For security purposes, the billing address of a customer is always stored with the order information (and is never stored with the customer detail records).

When the system displays the billing address using the {module_billingaddress} tag, the system always displays the last billing address that the customer used when placing their most recent order.

You can pre-populate a form's fields using the module tags listed above. Edit the form and place the desired module tags inside the field values.

Editing form fields to insert module tags

Follow these steps to update an existing form's fields to prepopulate the data with the system's data.

Edit the web page that contains the form. Click the HTML tab to view the source code.

Scan the code to locate the field that you want to prepopulate. In the example below, the line of code that creates the text field that contains the subscriber's user name is displayed:

<input class="cat_textbox_small" type="text" name="Username" maxlength="255"/>

To prepopulate this field, add value="{module_username}" to the end of the field code, like this:

<input class="cat_textbox_small" type="text" name="Username" maxlength="255" value="{module_username}" />

Setting up a form to email using Web Forms

You can configure a form to send the data to a user's email address, rather than storing it in the database. This strategy enables you to create simple web form with email functionality that forwards the details of a web form submissions to a pre-designated email address.

To set up a web form to forward the submitted data, follow these steps:

Create and insert a web form on a page.

Update the action URL in the source code of the form to use the format shown below:

action="/Default.aspx?A=Form&Email=You@YourDomain.com&Subject=This+is+email+subject&EmailFrom=yourfromemail@YourDomain.com&PageID=/DesinationPage.html"

In the example above:

&Email=You@YourDomain.com - The email adddress to which the submission is sent. Replace “You@YourDomain.com” with your email address.

    Note: The email address that will be receiving the form submission must exist in either your sites CRM (customer database) or be a admin/email user of the site.

    If the email address being used to receive these form submissions does not exist as a site user or in the CRM, then the email will not be sent. A notification will be sent to the partner of the site advising them of this requirement.
&Subject=This+is+email+subject - The subject of the email. Make sure you separate each word in the subject with the + (plus) sign.
&EmailFrom=yourfromemail@YourDomain.com - The from email address. Replace yourfromemail@YourDomain.com with the email address you want to use for the submission.
&PageID=/DestinationPage.html - The URL of the landing page presented to the visitor after the web form has been submitted.

Hiding a retail price for items that are not on sale

forums_noreply@adobe.com — Tue, 27 Mar 2012 00:03:01 GMT

Add the following script to the large or small products layout for an online store:

<script language="javascript"><!--

var onsale_{tag_productid} = "{tag_onsale}";

if (onsale_{tag_productid} == "0") {
     document.getElementById("rrpprice_{tag_productid}").style.display = 'none'; 
}

//--></script>

Then you would assign the following tag ID to a retail price tag

<div id="rrpprice_{tag_productid}">{tag_retailprice}</div>

After adding this script, the retail price will be hidden for every item that is not currently on sale.

Preventing search engines from indexing your in-progress pages

forums_noreply@adobe.com — Thu, 15 Mar 2012 00:30:42 GMT

If you want to avoid search engines (such as Google) indexing your site before it is ready, we recommend the following steps:

1. Create a Content Holder that contains this content:

2. Place the content holder on each template of the site in the 'Head' section of the HTML.

When your site is ready to be seen by the public, you can remove the Content Holder from each template to allow the search engines to index the pages - or simply update the content in the Content Holder to add other metadata that may be useful to improve the ranking of your site, such as search keywords.

BC questions

forums_noreply@adobe.com — Sat, 19 Jul 2014 13:33:49 GMT

Why it is so complicated to find answers about the all programs on ADOBE even if we are the real customer ???

Why don't you have a pdf guide of "how used BC" and so on for example ?

1/ where is the page with the prices for hosting websites created by MUSE ?

I must prepare a "master plan" to a customer but I have no idea about it because I can't find these details.

2/ we can be the host for few (?) of our customers websites without the businesscatalyst.com at the end of the domain name I read it....

so HOW to do that ? How it costs ? in euros please ? May I get the all details (month /years and so on)

Thank you for your simply answers !

Customizing Online Shop Alert Message Strings

forums_noreply@adobe.com — Mon, 19 Mar 2012 04:35:31 GMT

Oshoplang = { 

RemoveError: 'Your custom string goes here (Message displayed when product is removed from the shopping cart)', 

Added: 'Your custom string goes here (Message displayed when product is added to the shopping cart. NOTE: The system will display the number of items added to the cart followed by your message)',

OutOfStock: 'Your custom string goes here (Message displayed when product added is out of stock)',

PreOrder: ' Your custom string goes here (Message displayed when pre-ordered product is added to the shopping cart. NOTE: The system will display the number of items added to the cart followed by your message)',

InvalidQuantity: 'Your custom string goes here (Message displayed when invalid quantity is added the shopping cart)',

CartEmpty: 'Your custom string goes here (Message displayed when the shopping cart is empty)',

CartUpdateSuccess: 'Your custom string goes here (Message displayed when the shopping cart is successfully updated)',

InvalidShip: 'Your custom string goes here (Message displayed when customer tries to check out without selecting a shipping option)',

ChooseState: 'Your custom string goes here (Message displayed when customer tries to check out without selecting a destination state)',

EnterZip: 'Your custom string goes here (Message displayed when customer tries to check out without entering a zip code)',

ChooseShip: 'Your custom string goes here (Message displayed when customer tries to check out without selecting a radio button shipping option)',

IncorrectGForm: 'Your custom string goes here (Message displayed when the gift voucher form in Admin -> More Customization Options -> Online Shop Layouts -> gift Voucher layout is broken)',

EnterGName: 'Your custom string goes here (Message displayed when customer tries to submit the Gift Voucher form without entering the recipients name)',

InvalidGEmail: 'Your custom string goes here (Message displayed when customer tries to submit the Gift Voucher form without entering a proper email address)',

EnterGMessage: 'Your custom string goes here (Message displayed when customer tries to submit the Gift Voucher form without entering a message for the recipient)' 

};

Step 2. Insert Your Customized Alert Messages

Replace the strings within single quotes above (i.e. CartUpdateSuccess: 'Your custom string goes here') with your custom strings, then save the file as "online-shop.js". Note: You must save the file with a .js extension.

Note - make sure the file does not get saved as "online-shop.js.txt"

Step 3. Upload The File

Upload the online-shop.js file using either FTP or the File Manager in your Admin Console.

For this example, we'll upload it to our "/js" directory.

Step 4. Reference The Script In Your Site Wide Template

So that your custom alert messages are rendered on every page of your Online Shop, we'll reference hte JavaScript file in our Site Wide template.

To do this, switch to the HTML mode of the online editor then copy and paste the following code immediately before the </head> tag:

<script type="text/javascript" src="/js/online-shop.js"></script>

Save and Publish the template.

When your online shop is now loaded, the default strings will be overwritten with your custom strings. Your custom messages will be then displayed in the alert window every time one of the actions in the list is performed.

Creating login functionality on eCommerce registration form for return customers

forums_noreply@adobe.com — Mon, 03 Sep 2012 05:16:47 GMT

Introduction

On some occasions you may want to introduce a login form for return customers so that you can get them to log in and pre-populate the registration form with their CRM details from their previous purchase. There are two ways in which you can setup your eCommerce to pre-populate the registration form for the returning customers.

NOTE: additional checkout steps will increase the cart abandonment rate.

Method 1

Go to Site Manager -> Module Templates -> Online Shop Layouts and choose the Shopping Cart layout. Using the Module Manager on the WYSIWYG editor's tool bar simply insert a Generic Secure Zone Login Form into your shopping cart layout. With this form on the shopping cart page customers can either click on the existing 'Checkout' button or choose to fill in the login form and submit it, after which they will be redirected to the checkout registration form.

You also need to add the CRM modules to the registration form fields in order to populate the email address, first and last name, billing and shipping address fields and any other info the modules are available for. To do this you need to use {module_shippingaddress}, {module_shippingcity}, {module_billingaddress} and so forth, inside the value argument of the input field. The full list can be found HERE

Example:

Original field -

<input type="text" name="FirstName" id="FirstName" />

The same field after the above change -

<input type="text" name="FirstName" id="FirstName" value="{module_firstname}" />

Method 2.

In this method you need to add the login form to the registration layout, rather than shopping cart layout as per the method 1 above. Basically, you hide the registration form and reveal the login form, then when the customer logs in you reveal the registration form and hide the login form.

Here's the step by step process:

Go to Site Manager -> Module Templates -> Online Shop Layouts and choose the "Registration (Buy)" layout.
Add the relevant modules to the form so the form is populated if the customer logs in, e.g. value="{module_firstname}". The full list of modules can be obtained HERE.
Wrap the form in a <div> and use css hide it. Make sure you give your div an ID , e.g. <div id="myform" style="display:none;">
Insert a Generic Secure Zone Login box on this page. Make sure that the action URL of this form has ZoneID=-1 in it and apend &PageID={module_pageaddress} to it e.g. action="/ZoneProcess.aspx?ZoneID=-1...&PageID={module_pageaddress}"
Add the following Javascript to your page, which will check if the user is logged in it will display the registration form (add script at the end of the page and remove spaces from the module tag):

            <script type="text/javascript">
                var loggedin = {module_isloggedin}; 
                if (loggedin == 1) 
                    document.getElementById('myform').style.display='inline';
            </script>

If the user is a new user you would simply add some JavaScript to show the form instantly. e.g.

<a href="#" onclick="document.getElementById('myform').style.display='inline';return false;">New User? Click Here to complete purchase</a>

You should also collect usernames and password on the checkout so that the users can use these to log in on the next purchase. To do this, inside the Admin Console, go to Site Manager->Webforms, choose your webform and add the Username and Password fields. Then, re-insert the form in the checkout (registration buy) layout.

How to setup a Seamless Transaction Gateway with PayPal (Australia Only)

forums_noreply@adobe.com — Thu, 08 May 2014 01:11:14 GMT

I've been working with the team at PayPal to allow BC Partners to set up a cost effective way to setup a Seamless Transaction Shopping Cart Process on their BC eCommerce website without the need for a 3rd Party Merchant Provider like eWay or Secure Pay or their bank. This is designed for entry level businesses who want to control their setup costs and keep all funds in one place (PayPal).

Currently BC doesn't support Paypal's Payments Pro plan in Australia so you are limited with either a non-seamless payment process or using a 3rd Party Merchant provider with can be costly.

Without going into too much detail, the setup on PayPal's side is a mixture of a couple of plans, and is a little complicated however through our discussions we come to an arrangement of any additional fee's associated with the setup being waived since this is more so of a technical workaround than anything else.

Basically PayPal is the merchant provider, and the customer doesn't leave your website when making a purchase through the Shopping Cart. The setup is only $25/month plus transaction fees of between 1.1 to 2.4% + 30 cents depending on the number of payments (this is just an initial guide and confirmed on your discussion with the PayPal).

Because the setup involves quite a few steps and departments I've arranged a contact that will fast track this process and is familiar with this unique setup.

How to setup PayPal for a Seamless Transaction Process

Sign up for PayPal Business account Timeframe: <20 minutes
Email Peter psady@paypal.com or phone (02) 8288 0333. CC me gary@itbusiness.com.au or mention my name so he can correctly setup the process and apply the discounted pricing.
Prepare for the Verification process for the PayPal account (Proof of ID, Proof of Address, Business documents etc).
Wait for Account Verification. You will be informed to setup both PayFlow Pro* and Website Payments Pro (*the PayFlow payment will be waived as mentioned previously). Timeframe: up to 5 business days depending on swift supply of required documentation.
Wait for your Billing Agreement for Website Payments Pro once application has been approved. Sometimes they will receive a phone call to verify details of the application. Timeframe: Up to 72 hours
Login into your PayPal account to accept the Billing Agreement.
Notify Peter once the Billing Agreement has been accepted so your PayFlow Pro can be linked to your Website Payments Pro
Login into your Business Catalyst Website and navigate e-Commerce > Payment Gateways
Select PayPal PayFlow Payment Gateway (..,AU, ..)
Enter your Username, PayPal Password, and add VSA as the Partner

Setting up PayPal Payments

If you also want to make payments via PayPal (ie, with the customers Pay Pal account) you can continue with setting up the PayPal Website Standard secure with your PayPal Customer ID and your PDT Token which you'll need to setup in your PayPal Account.

If you have any questions give me or Peter an email. I'll continue to update this document as I go.

Please note this setup is current for Australian Pay Pal Customers only. This process does not support re-occurring billing.

Issue with Product Layout, Large Image Blocking Product Description

forums_noreply@adobe.com — Wed, 29 Jan 2014 11:46:37 GMT

The website I am currently creating is http://shopatjem.businesscatalyst.com/

I am using Muse for the overall site layout, and merge BC with Muse has been a royal headache. I have found that the issues are typically easy fixes but are hard to figure out due to the lack of information found on the internet.

On the specific product page, I have found that the 'large image' blocks the product description. I was hoping it would be a simple fix on how the tags are layed out, as my knowledge in CSS is not professional.

You can view the issue at this link: http://shopatjem.businesscatalyst.com/Garden/10-litre-power-washer

Does anyone have any secrets, tips or advice that could help me solve this challenge.

Any help would be a greatly appreciated.
Kind Regards

Setting up an Amazon CloudFront Content Distribution Network (CDN) for a Business Catalyst Website

forums_noreply@adobe.com — Tue, 21 Jan 2014 14:35:58 GMT

This document will help you setup a CDN for your Business Catalyst Site, through Amazon's CloudFront Service. This will allow browsers to fetch data much faster, as it will be cached on an intermediary server, that is supposed to handle much less requests, hence providing faster delivery times.

Pre-requisites:

- Amazon CloudFront account (http://aws.amazon.com/cloudfront/)

- Live BC Site with at least one domain added

Note: This example will demonstrate the implementation for a site where DNS is hosted with BC. For sites where domains are hosted externally, the same steps apply, just that A and CNAME records are added within the respective DNS hosting provider's console.

Service Description

The way a CloudFront CDN works with BC is this:

CloudFront generates a subdomain on cloudfront.net for your distribution, basically representing a dedicated cache server, which will sync with your BC Site through an A record (a subdomain) and a CNAME, and then start serving content for it. To connect your website with the CloudFront distribution, you'll have to:

- Setup the A record on your site (a sub-domain) and mark it at CloudFront as the origin for the new content distribution.
When there's no cached version for an asset requested by a visitor, CloudFront will fetch that asset from the origin.
It will thus cache it, and any further requests will be resolved from CloudFront, without calling the asset again from the BC server.

- Add a CNAME on your site that points to the domain CloudFront generates for your distribution.

- Finally, reference all assets on your website through the CNAME created.

Step By Step Tutorial

With everything in place, let's assume our website is www.bcwebsite.tk.

The steps to activate your first distribution will be the following:

1. Add an A Record
(create a sub-domain) on your site (pointing to any local page). We've added library.bcwebsite.tk

2. Create a new Distribution on CloudFront

Access https://console.aws.amazon.com/cloudfront/home#distribution and click the "Create Distribution" button. When prompted, select Web as delivery method.

Origin settings

    1. Set your Origin Domain Name. Eg: library.bcwebsite.tk
        Set Origin ID is automatically set to CustomWWW-library.bcwebsite.tk

    2. Set Origin Protocol Policy to HTTP Only (CloudFront will connect to my origin using only HTTP).

Default cache behavior settings

    1. Set Viewer Protocol Policy to HTTP and HTTPS
    2. Set Object Caching to Use Origin Cache Headers
        or choose "Customize" if you want to specify expiry time for objects in the CloudFront cache regardless of Cache-Control headers, through setting Minimum TTL (default 24h).
    3. Set Forward Query Strings to NO
        (unless you want to return different versions of an object based on query strings)

Distribution settings

1. Set Price Class.
If you activate CDN For only Europe and US the cost is smaller. All edge location imply worldwide coverage at higher costs

    2. Set an Alternate Domain Names(CNAMEs) Eg: cache.bcwebsite.tk
    3. You can choose to enable logging. For that you would need to create a Bucket in the S3 Console, required to store web server logs. You'll select that bucket here
    4. Set Distribution State to Enabled

Finally, click on the Create Distribution button. You will see the status as follows:

A domain name has been generated for your CloudFront distribution: d**************q7.cloudfront.net.

The service is now syncing with your site. The Status will change to "Deployed" once it complets, and that usualy takes about 10 minutes.

3. Create a CNAME Record on your site pointing to your new Cloud Front domain name

4. Link assets on your site through the new CNAME

Example:

On any page or template, instead of:

you'll have:

The CNAME you defined earlier links cache.yourwebsite.com to d11********q7.cloudfront.net, so the above reference will be the same with:

Your Setup is ready.

Web Form Validation Message Language Setting at Runtime when work in multi lingual environment

forums_noreply@adobe.com — Tue, 17 Dec 2013 17:48:44 GMT

Business Catalyst use the default culture language to display web form validation message.

When we are in multi lingual environment and not using subdoamin to handle multilingual sites, we found that the validation message did appear in the default culture setting. To make this work, we need to add the below script in our template.

<script type="text/javascript">

$(document).ready(function(){

var head= document.getElementsByTagName('head')[0];

var script= document.createElement('script');

script.src= '/BcJsLang/ValidationFunctions.aspx?lang=FR';

script.charset = 'utf-8';

script.type= 'text/javascript';

head.appendChild(script);

});

</script>

Assuming the template is in french. You can change the lang parameter in the script according to your language.

Should I build this app in Business Catalyst or Flex?

forums_noreply@adobe.com — Fri, 13 Dec 2013 15:44:13 GMT

I have to build an app where the user is able to build a sandwich by selecting items and have the item appear on the sandwich as it is selected. I am not a developer and would really like to do this in Business Catalsyst Web Apps but I am not sure how to get it started. The concept is similar to this game. http://www.puffgames.com/daily_games/burger_chef/

Would I be better off trying to build it in Flex/Flash keeping in mind that it has to be a mobil app as well as a web app.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I need help in customizing our blog

forums_noreply@adobe.com — Wed, 11 Dec 2013 21:10:43 GMT

This started out with a simple request... can you add a bulleted list and indent it in the blog? My partner, who is not HTML/CSS savy tried using the design window and the italics, bold, UL and OL commands did not function. I had added a template that called for open sans font which is outside of the scope of their design window and that may hae something to do with some of it. So I went to the Blog Post Details Layout" stylesheet and added some more CSS for ul and li elements. And it was not being recognized. Am I in the right area? I don't want to alter the global CSS which is called on for the blog and I don't think I add CSS to the template page CSS either... any help woudl be great.

Thanks

I'm using Authorize.net as my gateway.

I also want the user to specify the amount they want to pay.

My main question has to do with the fact that I don't want to tie a fixed amount to the secure zones. I just want a (variable) monthly options and a One Time option.

How to protect your website from SPAM submissions

forums_noreply@adobe.com — Thu, 29 Nov 2012 13:38:35 GMT

What is SPAM and why does a website owner encounter SPAM?

Spam is no longer limited to email marketing, but it comes in various forms through websites and blogs that support commenting or forms.

There are several reasons for which a human or an automatic spammer might submit comments and forms with irrelevant information:

Comments
- To bring visitors to the site that the comment or the user is referring
- To link-back (for free) an other website for search engine ranking benefits
Submitted web forms
- Different commercial or scam purposes – I am sending you an offer via the contact form; works just like in the case of email spam

What type of SPAM can you find on your website on your customers’ websites?

SPAM in comments or web forms can be submitted automatically by Spam bots or by humans. Both human spammers and Spam bots get cleverer and cleverer all the time to achieve their goals.

Human spammers improve their text and comments all the time so that they seem as natural as possible; whereas bots improve their ways of bypassing anti Spam mechanisms .

Both types of spammers are equally dangerous, although the content submitted by Spam bots can be more annoying due to the large number of comments or submitted forms.

How can you protect your sites from SPAM

Before listing a series of best practices, I must say that there is no single solution for this, that the process is a continuous one and that the site owner/partner must commit to it on e medium-long time frame.

Human SPAM has to be treated differently from automatic SPAM and vice-versa.

Human Spammers

1. Use Akismet. Make sure that you enable Akismet from the Admin Console > Module Modules>Comments.

Make sure that you train Akismet everyday for at least 2-3 weeks, until Akismet learns what type of content and what users to consider SPAM. BC is sending right to Akismet all the information related to a comment: user IP, username, website, email address, comment text. Based on these details Akismet will learn which user is dangerous and start marking all the comments from that user as SPAM. And if the user changes the IP, username, email address or website, Akismet learns the structure of the comment used by that specific user and mark it as SPAM.

2. Moderate each comment: if Akismet fails at some point, be sure that the company behind the service is doing the best to improve the SPAM detection algorithms. Hence, until they release a new version or until they improve the current one, you need to start moderating comments. This is a shared responsibility, between the technology providers and the website owners.

Observation: Sometimes, Akismet may mark valid comments as SPAM (in this case, they are called false positives). In order to teach Akismet that this specific comment is a valid one, you need to mark it as valid.

So your responsibility as a partner or your customer’s responsibility is to check regularly the Comments tab and mark them as SPAM or to approve them as genuine comments.

Automatic Spammers

The most effective solution for spam bots is a strong CAPTCHA. But most of the times a strong CAPTCHA can annoy blog or forum users. Any commenter wants a very easy way to submit his content and make it accessible to others. And you or your customers must make sure to provide this easiness.

However, n order to avoid irritating automatic spam submitted through forms and blogs, follow the next steps:

For Blogs or forums:

1. Start with Akismet (see the above observations).

2. If you are not satisfied with the level of SPAM that you encounter, you can enable CAPTCHA on your comments. Go to Site Settings > Captcha and choose the type of Image verification that you want to enable. In the case of comments we only offer native Image Verification solutions. For web forms we’ve also enabled reCaptcha.

3. Make sure that you enforce CAPTCHA on “Comments”.

4. As you can see, there are 2 versions for the native CAPTCHA solution. If the level of SPAM is very high, we recommend that you use the second one (“Harder to read, but more secure”).

Observation: If your business has a strong social presence or if you want to build a strong social presence and Facebook is an important channel, you can also use Facebook comments for your blog.

For WebForms (and checkout forms):

1. CAPTCHA – when you create the form make sure that you enable ”Image Verification” in Misc. The version of CAPTCHA (“Easier to read vs. Harder to read, but more secure”) will be the one that you chose from Site Settings>Captcha.

2. reCaptcha If this solution is not what you are looking for, you can try inserting reCaptcha, the Google native image verification system. You can find it also in the Misc section.

3. Anti-bot Fraud Protection module: All new forms come, by default, with “Web form protection module” enabled. You can see it in the form or if you check out the Code View, you’ll be able to see the generated code for this module. Make sure that you don’t delete it. The usage of this type of modules is something that we recommend that you always do. It is in fact a hidden “Input Field” with a random name. Spam bots usually fill this field, and once we detect that this field is being filled, we realize that the corresponding form submission is through a bot. Humans don’t see this field and aren’t able to submit it. For older forms, you will have to add this module to a form if it is not activated yet.

Observation: our research shows that visitors (humans) are not as annoyed by filling in image verification fields (CAPTCHA, reCaptcha) in case of web forms (contact submission, payment forms etc) compared to comments. So, when dealing with web forms, try to enable an image verification form (whether the new Captcha Image Verification version or reCapctcha).

What’s missing and known issues

In case of blog comments, when using Akismet, the associated workflow notification is being sent just before Akismet succeeds to mark a comment as SPAM. This is because Akismet checks for SPAM asynchronous (independent) from the comment engine. We are working on fixing this issue
Our current analytics system displays visits from spam bots as real visits and we make no distinction between human visitors and spam bots yet.

Let us know how your process of stopping SPAM from your sites and blogs works.

Dragos Manescu, Product Manager Adobe Business Catalyst

Set up the domains hosted by Business Catalyst to use Microsoft Lync Online from Microsoft Office 365

forums_noreply@adobe.com — Wed, 22 Aug 2012 16:04:24 GMT

With Lync Online, you can stay in touch with colleagues, partners, and customers by using features such as instant messaging, audio and video conferences, and online meetings. For details, see Lync Online – Unified Communications in the Cloud - http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/office365/lync-online.aspx

Now when you set up to use our hosting services you may need to set up two service records in order to be able to use Microsoft Lync Online services

A Service record (SRV record) is a specification of data in the Domain Name System defining the location, i.e. the hostname and port number, of servers for specified services (in our case Microsoft Lync Online services). For more details about SRV records please have a look at this link - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SRV_record

The Service records that needs to be set up in the Business Catalyst DNS tool are as follows:

_sip_tls 3600 in SRV 1 100 443 sipdir.online.lync.com that can be defined as shown in this screenshot - http://screencasteu.worldsecuresystems.com/Andrei/2012-08-22_1849.png.

Note: the Record Data for this SRV record should be: 100 1 443 sipdir.online.lync.com

_sipfederationtls._tcp 3600 in SRV 1 100 5061 sipfed.online.lync.com that can be defined as shown in this screenshot - http://screencasteu.worldsecuresystems.com/Andrei/2012-08-22_1851.png

Note: the Record Data for this SRV record should be: 100 1 5061 sipfed.online.lync.com

In order to see if you have properly configured those service records you can simply use the command prompt and perform a nslookup as shown below:

nslookup -type=srv _sip_tls.mydomain.com and the output should be something as shown in this screenshot - http://screencasteu.worldsecuresystems.com/Andrei/2012-08-22_1915.png

nslookup -type=srv _sipfederationtls._tcp.mydomain.com and the output should be something as shown in this screenshot - http://screencasteu.worldsecuresystems.com/Andrei/2012-08-22_1918.png

Note: the nslookup command will work only for machines that are running under Windows
