Hi,

I have a web form for a secure zone registration linked to a secure zone. I want to stop the user being redirected to the secure zone after completion of the registration form and just to view the default completion system page. When I unstick the edit properties box on the web form i.e. remove link to secure zone, it is then not showing up in the secure zone section in site manager therefore how do I link the person completing the form to a secure zone?!!

Using Business Catalyst for Newsletters - Several Questions

forums_noreply@adobe.com — Tue, 11 Nov 2014 00:00:50 GMT

Hello everyone - I hope the format of this forum question is okay. I have designed our company website with Muse and we host it with Business Catalyst (webBasics+). We like it a lot and are looking to possibly upgrade it to the next package (webMarketing) simply because of the potential for newsletters (as well as all of the other benefits like blogging and the helpful modules).

My company currently uses Constant Contact for our quarterly newsletters and holiday emails and we send to about 2800 people. It seems obvious to me that we should ditch Constant Contact as we pay more than $50.00/month and I think it is very limiting as far as being creative goes. It just makes sense that I should use Bc because I already use it...and the 5,000 newsletters is only $6.00 more.

My questions are:

Are there a lot of templates to choose from? 100's? 1,000's?
Is it easy to create my own template? Do I need Dreamweaver (Only have Creative Suite and Muse)?
Is it easy to transfer an email list I have? We have software called ACT and I am a little unsure how this works but I assume there is a certain file type we can export and just upload into Bc.
Are there options to have links to social media (facebook, twitter, etc.) in the newsletters?
Are the newsletters limited in size? I think Constant Contact limited the width of an email to 600 pixels - occasionally we had text in a graphic we made in Photoshop - so things go a little fuzzy.
Add-on question from #5 Are there ways to layer graphics on top of one another in the newsletters aside from flattening it in Photoshop? This was the most limiting factor in Constant Contact.

I appreciate any help with answering these questions. Again, I think it is pretty obvious and maybe you have some things to tell me that I am completely clueless about. I basically have to make the pitch to the powers that be and I want to make sure I have a lot of the ends covered.

Thanks!

Integrating CRM fields into a media document

forums_noreply@adobe.com — Mon, 10 Nov 2014 00:48:20 GMT

Can anyone direct me to information on integrating specific CRM fields into a media document? I have a marketing subscription website and am trying to implement a simple 'web to print' function for specific marketing materials for my subscribers. I've created the additional fields in the CRM database for photos, etc; however am trying to figure out the best approach for the end result which is inserting their personalized information into the form for printing.

I have access to Adobe CC so if there is a recommended software to create the marketing template that will interface with the CRM database in BC??

Any suggestions are appreciated - thank you.

Business Catalyst email clients forgot password

forums_noreply@adobe.com — Thu, 06 Nov 2014 10:47:15 GMT

Client using Business Catalyst as CMS and email client DNS was moved, then when email access to the former Business Catalyst mail (mail.hostedemail.com) was not available DNS was reverted back.

We need to determine if the following process steps are correct

1) A recovery email needs to be sent from the Business Catalyst CMS

with the DNS records and CNAME records INTACT reverted back to Business Catalyst CMS and mail

2) That password will be used to log in https://mail.hostedemail.com/?_task=login

3) Mail migration and archive can begin. Username password resets will be performed for

each user.

Webforms, events, notifications on a franchise site

forums_noreply@adobe.com — Tue, 04 Nov 2014 16:03:21 GMT

Hi,

I am working on a franchise site for a company, the main site provides general information about all the services, promos, events, etc... offered by the franchisee.

But not all associated stores offers all/same services nor promotions,etc... and so on.

Everything is solved by a number of related webapps, but the problem comes when a client wants to book a services appointment in a specific store.

Anyone thinks that there is another way of solving this than by making an individual form for each store. Selected store needs to be informed about the request...

Any help will be appreciated

Remove Blog Release Date from Google Searches

forums_noreply@adobe.com — Thu, 30 Oct 2014 04:02:14 GMT

Hi Everyone,

We are noticing in webmaster tools / analytics that the blog posts we rank highly for that show an old date (e.g 4 years ago!) have a 0% click through rate - we think this is because they look "old" as they used to have a much higher click through!

Does anyone know how we can keep the date showing on our website blog but hide it from Google searches?

The code we currently use in the Blog Post List Layout is:

<h4><span>Published on: <time datetime="{tag_blogpostdate}">{tag_blogpostdate}</time></span></h4> (in Blog Post Details Layout)

If we just remove the <time datetime="{tag_blogpostdate}"> will it hide it from google searches?

Any advice would be much appreciated

Events - Multiple Booking Allocation & Products (In one)?

forums_noreply@adobe.com — Thu, 23 Oct 2014 15:09:35 GMT

Does anyone know if there is a way to have multiple booking allocations for validation? for example, i want to be able to set up a booking that will allow the user to select either "adult" and/or "child" tickets, while also enforcing a limit on how many tickets someone can purchase. I don't see an easy way to do this and it doesn't seem like the booking allocation input field can be customized but I though I would see if anyone has set up a booking this way or at least if it's possible. Also, is there a way to add a product for sale with a booking? So for example, the client wants to sell daily harbor sailing tickets for adults & children (with variable pricing and sell limits) and let the customer buy apparel or a cap. Is this doable through a web app, a booking OR can all this be accomplished with the catalog?

No longer able to edit images inside the blog module? Has BC removed this function?

forums_noreply@adobe.com — Thu, 23 Oct 2014 13:55:30 GMT

Since there is no featured image for blog posts I've been inserting images into the first paragraph as a work around. Not being able to edit those images directly in the blog module is going to make that more difficult.

I've been able to resize the image through code, but this is not exactly user friendly for clients.

Workaround Suggestions : CRM Report with 'Relationships'?

forums_noreply@adobe.com — Wed, 22 Oct 2014 00:51:52 GMT

Hi there,

Working on a demo for a Uni Union; one of the features required is a "Clubs" setup. I am creating a web app with student clubs able to submit and edit their page, create events etc etc.

One required element has me stumped : each club needs a 'members list' and the ability to easily create reports which show the members of a certain club (via the Admin is fine). Not something I have ever had to create before, even after God knows how many years with BC, but the CRM reports don't look like they will generate a report based on 'relationships'; which would have been a reasonably logical solution (The "Company" being a club, with the "Club Members" being "Contact" relationships).

Any suggestions from the BC crowd? I have my lateral thinking cap on, but haven't been able to come up with anything that would be simple and logical for the client to use. I know I could extend the DB, but that would mean adding a new 'checkbox' in a custom field (for example, "Member of (club):") every time a new club is created so that a contact could be 'associated with it'. May be my only option but I am trying to come up with something a little less clunky.

Thanks in advance for any suggestions!

Help using a Dragn'Drop in a BC eCommerce site created in Muse

forums_noreply@adobe.com — Mon, 20 Oct 2014 21:15:26 GMT

I want to create a DragN'Drop template functionality to display multiple photo image galleries on a web page where the site visitor can select 12 images to drag and drop into a grid of 12 empty spaces on the SAME page.

I located the following 3rd party script: http://www.redips.net/my/preview/REDIPS_drag/example10/ This would be perfect because the scrolling containers on the left can contain the photo image galleries from which the image selection if "dragged" and the static container on the right can be the receptacle where the selected images are "dropped".

The twelve selected or (dropped) images represent an eCommerce product that the client will print and ship to the customer. This means that at some point the site visitor will need to add this template to the shopping cart and pay for the template order.

Because Muse over-writes when published to BC, I will need to insert the template in to a Muse page as HTML. The questions is:

1.) How can I get the template to work with the BC shopping cart function and process the finished "dropped" selection as an order?

2.) Once the selections are "dropped" into place, how can I have the system email a copy of the selected "dropped" images to an email address?

If there is a BC expert out there who can offer a few clues as to how I can make this all work -- I would greatly appreciate it?

Looking for 2 Product Solutions for eCommerce site created in Muse and published to BC

forums_noreply@adobe.com — Fri, 17 Oct 2014 21:52:11 GMT

Seeking suggestions for 2 separate BC eCommerce website product applications: I have within BC so far about 200 image in the in a folder in the "File Manager" -AND- each image has been optimized as a low-res digital image down-load product (divided among 20 catalogs).

#1. Image downloads not for individual purchase but as (a bundle of 6 for one price) and (a bundle of 13 for second price) only.

I'm trying to customize two BC products a 6 Pack & 13 Pack of digital image downloads. Normally in BC, a visitor could purchase a single image as a downloadable product and after successful check-out they would receive an email containing the download links. I need to disable single unit purchases and enable the customer to ONLY select 6 images for one price -or- select 13 images for one price. After successful check-out they would receive links for either 6 download files or 13 based on their purchase. They could also purchase multiple pack sets.

#2. Allow the site visitor to select 12 images (from 200 images among 20 catalogs) for a 12 month custom calendar which would be printed and shipped. The BC product here would be a 12 month custom calendar. I have a product listed in BC as a "12-Month Custom Calender" and a display page titled the same. I have been looking into a drag n drop system that would allow the visitor to: purchase the product > select 12 images > submit their select by email to site admin.

I have limited coding skill and I should mention that I originally created and continue to add-on to the site with Adobe Muse. Because I chose to use Muse, I have been looking for solutions that I can embed in Muse pages as "Objects" as Muse will over-write BC custom elements as it is over-written. I have looked at either using a 12 field drag n drop which might work but I can't determine how to make the 20 catalogs available on the same page to select from.

Can ANYONE offer suggestions?

Thanks

Webapp address search form-search by state

forums_noreply@adobe.com — Thu, 16 Oct 2014 12:13:35 GMT

I have a location-based search and I am trying to get the states listed in a webapp search form dropdown. I can add in the dropdown, but it isn't part of the search. I would like the ability for the user to search by state only, not having to enter a zip code. When I try this, all of the items in the webapp are displayed in the results.

Since the State is part of the address and not a custom field, how do I include it as part of the search script? When I output the search form, state isn't part of that, only zip and country.

Does everything have to be determined by the ZIP code?

Also, with international addresses, can I just have a search based on Country and no postal code?

new content editor

forums_noreply@adobe.com — Tue, 14 Oct 2014 09:43:21 GMT

The content editor in the backend of www.mavoschravenlant.nl has been changed for some reason I can't figure out.

Strangely, it has not been changed in the backend of other websites, or, if so, it is "workable".

Three different content editors... how come? And how the "newest" can be changed back into the old one?

The newest content editor is not workable for my client, since they don't have knowledge of HTML.

See screenshots of the three differences, all in the backend of a business catalyst website...

Problem:

Editing is only possible with knowledge of html...

"former" content editor on site one

Either this one or the one down below (even better) is what the content editor should look like.

"former" content editor on site two

So: Why three different content editors in the backend of business catalyst websites?

Second: why has the editor been changed to the first as shown above?

Third: how can the client recover or restore the former content editor lay out in the backend of the website, hosted at business catalyst?

Thanks for your reply!

How to assign customer to multiple secure zones?

forums_noreply@adobe.com — Fri, 10 Oct 2014 10:39:51 GMT

Hi,

I really need registered customer to be able to aisgn themselves to additional secure zone. In my particular case this second secure zone is a Trial zone, so when it expires customer have to have the first secure zone present so he's not out of zones he belongs to.

I have set a form up that asigns customer to the trial zone, but this creates addidional user and not aisgns additional secure zone to existing customer.

Is there a way to asign customer to two zones automatically (without touching admin console)? With JS maybe. I know its possible to specify the secure zone expiration date with JS when form is submitted so maybe theres a way to asign customer to two zones or better to make a form that acts inside existing secure zone and grants customer with additional secure zone.

To specify zone expiry date you use id="ExpiryDate" in form input field. Maybe there is input ID that asigns additional secure zone

to customer? Like SecureZone or similar...

Maybe theres a way to asign additional secure zones for existing customer through account details update page?

Please let me know.

Is BC really THAT inflexible?

forums_noreply@adobe.com — Wed, 01 Oct 2014 08:07:11 GMT

Hi,

I am a designer who loves working with Muse and the CMS side of Business Catalyst. But now my client (a travel agency) asked if he could use the rest of BC too. Because he really wants to automate his business more. So we watched the BC video’s about CRM and eCommerce and were very excited about the possibilities.

It all seems very promising but we got stuck on, what we thought, one simple question; does it work for him too? Or is BC not that flexible?

Acknowledging our ‘expertise’ on this matter we asked somebody who has made several databases himself to dive into this.

Basically he told us that BC is nice for building websites but the CRM and eCommerce are really too inflexible. And it can’t be adjusted to what my client needs. So he says it has to be custom build database, because you can add extra fields to webforms, but these extra fields can not be connected to real fields in the database. And he says there is no way that you can combine info from separate database parts and that’s exactly what we need.

You may have guessed it, that doesn’t really clarify things for us and after seeing all the other websites running on the CRM and eCommerce side of BC we think that what we want BC to do isn’t that big a deal. So I thought I would just drop our list in the forum and hope that someone who has worked with BC can answer these questions…

What we think it needs to do:

• Booking forms differ per event (trip) and this has to go in the database, connected to the client.

• Automated confirmation after payment.

• Automated notification if payment is due.

• Listing of clients data (from booking form and the extra fields) including payment status.

What we would like it to do:

• Clients can go on multiple trips and have a login to change settings etc.

• Newsletters can be automatically send and monitoring/overview of succes rate etc.

And it would be especially great if:

• Email exchange between the agency and the clients can be ‘joined’ in the CRM.

• Visitors of the site can see (per trip) how many people (and their age) are going

So, basically my questions about Business Catalyst are these:

• Can the Events module be changed to add fields like “Passport number”, “Travel date”, “Occupation”, etc? Because my client is in the travel business and he needs extra information.

• Is it possible to change the CRM by adding fields that connect to the Events Module and the Client information?

Thanks in advance for (all of) your reactions, great or small, because we want to make this website a succes and think BC can help a lot, but we just can’t start because of this…

Cheers!

Is there any way of allowing two BC websites to share data?

I know that the whole point of BC is the have a rock-solid server that you cant edit.

Client cannot register to a forum because their email is already in the CRM

Hi,

I have a couple of BC sites that are using the Forum. Clients are having problems registering for the forum because they have previoulsy interacted with the site in some way (newsletter sub or contact form) and their email is already stored in the CRM.

When they try to register for the forum the following message appears:

ERROR: The email address you entered is already registered to another user. Please choose another.

Is there some way around this?

Thanks.

Browse Panel Customization

forums_noreply@adobe.com — Tue, 30 Sep 2014 18:00:40 GMT

I am working on an e-commerce site that would really benefit from using the Browse Panel feature. It is a greeting card site that has two lines of cards and then many categories (birthday, holidays, sympathy, etc.) within the two lines so being able to sort by occasion would be fantastic. The browse panel seems like the way to go here but I don't need all of the included parts... I just need to have the browse panel to show the sub-catalogs and do not want the "on sale" or "price" sections to be included. Every product is the same price so sorting by price is pointless--we also had to do some weird stuff on the back end to get it to work as both a retail and wholesale site so the pricing the browse panel shows is not accurate.

Long explanation for a hopefully simple question... Basically, I need to know if it's possible to remove sections of the browse panel and how to do it.

I have tried to use the tag to remove these parts but for some reason it is not changing at all. I've also edited the CSS and the formatting went away but the info was still there (pointless I know, but it was worth a shot)

BC site not found in Dreamweaver, "you have no sites available to import."

forums_noreply@adobe.com — Mon, 29 Sep 2014 22:58:43 GMT

When managing sites in an attempt to import BC site into a local Dreamweaver CS6 application, Dreamweaver prompts that "You have no sites available to import."

Is this an issue of merging Business Catalyst account with Creative Cloud account (I'm currently running on the free trial..)

I have already downloaded Extension Manager and added the BC extension.

Please advise.

Nested Module Tags

forums_noreply@adobe.com — Sat, 27 Sep 2014 07:47:52 GMT

So I'm trying to create a content holder that will show the latest blog posts with a tag that matches the title of the page that the content module is on. Something like so:

<h3>Related Blog Posts</h3>

{module_blogpostlist,14981,2,{module_pagename}}

</ul>

<a href="http://securitysolutionsnw.businesscatalyst.com/blog" class="more">View all Questions</a>

</div>

This, however, doesn't appear to be working, looks like it tries to find the latest blogs that are tagged "{module_pagename" then finds that closing '}', then prints an additional '}'.

Does anyone have any idea for a solution? I have 28 pages that need to display latest blogs of 28 different tags, so I'd prefer to put this code in a content module and then into a template.

Can we use session variables in Adobe?

forums_noreply@adobe.com — Sat, 27 Sep 2014 04:03:54 GMT

Hi,

I'm creating a BC eCommerce site where customers will need to input data (text content) at various points during the check-out process. Example: purchasing a membership profile with the capacity to upload images and profile text content. With regard to creating such functionality, a programmer asked the following question:

Can we use session variables in Adobe and how & where do we setup them up?

Customize Web App Search

forums_noreply@adobe.com — Sat, 27 Sep 2014 02:27:30 GMT

Hello,

I am working in conjunction with dreamweaver and business catalyst. What I am trying to do is create a custom real estate website for my client. This requires me to build a completely customized search on the homepage. I've created a web app for the real estate listings. On the initial search navigation I'd like to limit some of the input fields available on the user end (I don't want all of the search fields displayed). Is there a way to do this without modifying the code and managing the javascript?

For example:

I have all of these fields available for input- Price, Address 1, 2, zip code, bed, bath, residence, for sale/rent, city, etc.

I'd only like to show these instead of the above listed: price, bed, bath, sale/rent.

Thanks for any help in advance!

I'd really love to get this squared away asap.

Megan
