Forum Post: Friend's activity widget slowing page load

Arlo Guthrie — Thu, 17 May 2012 07:50:00 GMT

We have a box displaying "friend's activity" on our home page. As membership of our site has grown and members activities have increased, loading the data for this box has slowed the loading time for our home page to such a degree (causing the page to timeout) that we have had to remove it. Problem seems to be that there is now so much data in the 'friend activity' part of the database that it is taking too long to query it.

Here's the code for the friend's activity box I am talking about:

<table id="friends" border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0"> <tr class="avamb"> <td><h4>Colleagues' Activity</h4></td> <td> <CSControl:UserData ID="UserData3" UseAccessingUser="true" LinkCssClass="aAvaSus" runat="server" LinkTo="FriendsActivityRss"> <ContentTemplate>Subscribe by RSS</ContentTemplate> </CSControl:UserData> </td> </tr> <tr> <td colspan="2" id="t-activa" valign="top"> <CSMessage:ActivityMessageList runat="server" ShowHeaderFooterOnNone="false"> <QueryOverrides QueryType="AccessingUsersFriendsActivity" PageSize="40" PageIndex="0" /> <LeaderTemplate><div></LeaderTemplate> <HeaderTemplate><ul></HeaderTemplate> <ItemTemplate> <CSMessage:ActivityMessageData runat="server" Property="DateCreated" Tag="Li" CssClass="Header" FormatString="MMMM dd, yyyy"> <DisplayConditions><CSControl:CustomCondition CustomResult='<%# ShowDateHeader("FriendActivity", Eval("DateCreated")) %>' runat="server" /></DisplayConditions> </CSMessage:ActivityMessageData> <CSMessage:ActivityMessageData Property="Type" Text="<li class="CommonActivity {0}">" runat="server" /> <CSMessage:ActivityMessageData runat="server" Property="Body" /> </li> </ItemTemplate> <NoneTemplate><p>No recent activity has been recorded.</p></NoneTemplate> <FooterTemplate></ul></FooterTemplate> <TrailerTemplate> </div> </TrailerTemplate> </CSMessage:ActivityMessageList> </td> </tr> </table>

Anyone got any suggestions as to how we can get round this and still have a friend's activity box???

I would strongly recommend against Davide's solution. That will allow *any* community to embed any malicious javascript files in any user generated content in the community. Allowing arbitrary users to upload arbitrary Javascript like this will create a *HUGE* security risk for your community users.

You can insert anchors into wikis. IF you're using Community Server I believe you have to do this through the raw HTML. For newer versions of Tellgient Community / Telligent Enterprise there is an anchor button on the text editor you can use to insert the anchor.

Forum Post: RE: How to download source code of Community Server 2008.

vioccc — Fri, 09 Mar 2012 14:54:00 GMT

Wow - this is really quite shocking, especially considering how much Telligent charged for CS 2008.

Seriously, what would it cost Telligent to setup an archive page with links to to all the SDK and upgrade packages? We're talking about measly 10MB files here.... What a way to treat your customers.

If it helps anybody, I've CS2008_SP1_4.0.30619.63.sdk.zip in my own archives (9.6MB). Note that it's the SDK for the 2008 version, not 2008.5 (and it's the SP1 service pack specifically - I think that the latest SP for CS 2008 was SP3). Happy to upload it to an FTP site or send by email - just send me the details.

I also have CS2008.5_SP1_4.1.31106.3070.upgrade.zip (9.8MB), which appears to be the upgrade package to go from 2008 to 2008.5 SP1 (the upgrade was free for all 2008 licensees). It's not the full SDK however - just the upgrade package for the website and database.

Unfortunately, I don't have any other SDKs (and kicking myself now for not having archived them when they were still available - but then I didn't expect Telligent to be so crap to their customers).

If anybody else has SDKs and upgrade packages in their archives, it would be good to upload all of them in one place - I'm sure there are quite a few other people out there stuck with legacy sites they can't even maintain anymore because of this.

Forum Post: RE: SiteUrls.Instance().*

mokello — Fri, 02 Mar 2012 10:04:00 GMT

Hi Jose,

I am new to Telligent Community 5.6, and wondered how to use SiteUrls.Instance() to retreive the absolute path of my forum group default page. I tried this:

var path = SiteUrls.Instance().UrlData.FormatUrl("group_home", groupName);

It ended giving me a bogus url with with spaces e.g. /fundraising/Alps Cycle Challenge/....

ended up doing this

groupName = group.Name;

groupUrl = siteRoot + "/" + group.GroupPath + "default.aspx";

So how do I get the absolute url of my group's default page?

n.b* I want the absolute url.

CommunityServer.Components.Group group =

CommunityServer.Controls.CSControlUtility.Instance().GetCurrent<CommunityServer.Components.Group>(this);

string siteRoot = ConfigurationManager.AppSettings["CommunityServer.Url"];

int groupId = -1;

string groupUrl = "";

string groupName = "";

if (group != null)

{

groupName = group.Name;

groupUrl = siteRoot + "/" + group.GroupPath + "default.aspx";

var path = SiteUrls.Instance().UrlData.FormatUrl("group_home", groupName);

messageBox.Text += "\r\n"+string.Format("<a href='{0}'>{1}</a>", groupUrl,"You have been invited to join this group in Macmillan's community: " + groupName);

messageBox.Text = "<p>" + messageBox.Text + "</p>";

}

Forum Post: Images missing from posts after moving CS app to subfolder

douglasl — Wed, 22 Feb 2012 17:31:00 GMT

I moved my CS 2008 installation from the root folder of the Web site to a subfolder 1 level down. The blog posts load just fine, but all the embedded images are missing. I see that the links for images still point to http://<site.com>/cfs-file.ashx in the root folder, not in the new location.

Can you help me understand how to fix this? I tried to code a 301 redirect to solve the problem, but maybe that's not the best approach.

Here's what one of the image links looks like: http://<site.com>/cfs-file.ashx/__key/CommunityServer.Blogs.Components.WeblogFiles//.jpg

I've tried these redirects:

1. From cfs-file.ashx to subfolder/cfs-file.ashx.

2. From /cfs-file.ashx to /subfolder/cfs-file.ashx.

3. From http://.com/cfs-file.ashx to http://.com/subfolder/cfs-file.ashx.

4,5,6. Same as 3 above but with the whole path up to the image filename (...cfs-file.ashx/__key/CommunityServer.Blogs.Components.WeblogFiles//)

The latter 5 variations fail with HTTP 500 errors. The 1st, which looked like the most likely to succeed, results in this mangled URL:

GET http://.com/cfs-file.ashx/__key/CommunityServer.Blogs.Components.WeblogFiles//blogcs/cfs-file.ashx/__key/CommunityServer.Blogs.Components.WeblogFiles//blogcs/cfs-file.ashx/__key/CommunityServer.Blogs.Components.WeblogFiles//blogcs/cfs-file.ashx/__key/CommunityServer.Blogs.Components.WeblogFiles//.jpg

Thank you for any suggestions about how to restore the images in my blog posts!

Forum Post: Redirect requests for embedded images after moving CS

douglasl — Sat, 18 Feb 2012 22:03:00 GMT

I've moved my CS 2008 installation from the root folder to a subfolder. I created a 301 redirect for the pages (blog posts) without a problem. However the links for images still point to cfs-file.ashx in the root folder, so images aren't showing up.

Can you help me understand how to code this redirect? Here's what one of the image links looks like:

3. From http://<site>.com/cfs-file.ashx to http://<site>.com/subfolder/cfs-file.ashx.

4,5,6. Same as 3 above but with more of the path up to the image filename (cfs-file.ashx/__key/CommunityServer.Blogs.Components.WeblogFiles/<blog_name>/)

The latter 5 variations fail with HTTP 500 errors.

Thank you for any suggestions about redirecting request to this handler!!
