This week you could see two great demos: one is about showing you how you can manage and import/export your secrets between servers, the other is about using Blazor WebAssembly with Orchard Core! Orchard Core updates ChallengeOrForbid() in Api controllers Most of the API controllers are configured to use the Api scheme for authentication but return ChallengeOrForbid(), which ultimately uses the default challenge scheme (which is typically the cookie handler when the Users module is enabled). To fix that, the API controllers are updated to do ChallengeOrForbid("Api") instead of ChallengeOrForbid(), so that challenges are properly handled by OpenIddict when the OpenID token validation feature is enabled. Now there is a new override for the ChallengeOrForbid() extension method that accepts the authentication schemes to challenge. And now you can use this extension method in your API controller just by passing the Api, like: return this.ChallengeOrForbid("Api");. Include ContentsMetadata (PageTitle) in Blog Theme Category Taxonomy If you use the Blog recipe, a taxonomy Category with entry Travel is created by default. However, the title for the Travel page was not correct. If you created a site name Blogging using the Blog recipe, the expected title would be: Travel - Blogging, but you got a title: Blogging. The fix was to include the ContentsMetadata in the Content-Category.liquid file. Link to GitHub Discussions in Contributing If you open the GitHub repository of Orchard Core you will find a CONTRIBUTING.md file in the root of the repository. Now this markdown file has a direct link to GitHub Discussions. But what is GitHub Discussions? GitHub only offered issues and pull requests as places to have these conversations. But issues and pull requests both have a linear format - well suited for merging code, but not for creating a community knowledge base. Conversations need their own place - that’s what GitHub Discussions is for. If you have a question and need an answer, just visit the Discussions page and if you haven't find the answer for your issue, let's ask it there. Here you can find detailed and valuable answers for questions like what is a shape? Demos Secret Management Updates Head to the GitHub repository of Orchard Core and checkout to the deanmarcussen/secrets branch to be able to try out this upcoming feature! After you set up your Orchard Core site, head to Configuration -> Features and enable these features: Configuration Secrets Store: The secrets configuration store is a read-only store for secrets. Database Secrets Store: The secrets database stores encrypted secrets in the database. Secrets: The secrets feature manages secrets that other modules can contribute to. After you will find a new option under Configuration called Secrets. Here you can add two kinds of secrets: Authorization Secret: A secret used to manage a secure password or authorization key. Rsa Secret: A public / private RSA key pair used for encryption. Let's add a new Authorization Secret now and see what are Secret Bindings exactly? Secret Bindings can be used to enter secrets, like SMTP passwords. And you can choose where it's gonna come from. Right now they can be stored either in the database or in the configuration. But there is a plan to support the Key Vault provider as well. Let's use the smtp_password as the name and store it now in the Database Secret Store. And add the password into the Authentication String textbox. But how can use that secret? If you enable the Email feature, you can navigate to Configuration -> Settings -> Smtp and set up the network delivery options. If you put a tick on the Require credentials checkbox, you have to provide a user name and a password for authentication. If you would like to use your secret, you can use a Liquid filter to access the password stored in it. Here you can see that we entered the following Liquid expression to retrieve the password: {{ "smtp_password" | auth_secret }}. Remember, the smtp_password was the name of our secret. When we added our secret, we had the option to choose to create an Authorization Secret or an Rsa Secret. We created an Authorization Secret, so let's create an Rsa Secret this time! The RSA key pair is what we could use to actually crypt secrets when transmitting them to another server. At the moment the private key is in the editor, the idea is that once you created the private key you will never see it again. You can use the public key as an encryption key. Now let's create a new Deployment Plan and call it Secrets RSA! Add the All Secrets deployment step to it then hit Execute! After you will end up with a recipe that looks like the following. Here you can see the encriptionKey used for this particular recipe. It's a symmetric encryption key that is encrypted with the public key from the RSA key pair. Then all of the bindings that are available are here in the recipe. You will also find a decryptor here (js: decrypt()) which will use the encriptionKey and the private key on the other end to decrypt them. And when you run this recipe on your remote server - assuming you have installed the private key on the remote server - it will unencrypt your secrets correctly. But it's not all! If you would like to know more about this great upcoming feature, don't hesitate to watch the recording of it! Blazor WebAssembly with Orchard Core In this demo, you will see how to use a Blazor WebAssembly application that queries a blog post content through a REST API call using GraphQL. A JWT token used as a bearer token when calling the REST API GraphQL endpoint. Head to YouTube now to see the full demo!

We prepared with an interesting topic for this week about how could you use shapes like reusable Angular components? But before that, we checked the latest updates of Orchard Core, like the new updates around Tag Helpers. Orchard Core updates Add UI permissions based on the user role This is about hiding some buttons based on the permissions, instead of returning the 401 page when clicking on those. What do we mean? Well, let's say we have a permission that doesn't contain a role to publish or unpublish pages. That means users with that permission can't see the Publish button at the bottom of the editor in a case of a Page content item. Meeting information in the documentation When you open the Orchard Core documentation page and navigate to Resources, you will find a new link in the Resources column at the left called Meeting. If you click on that you will see a brand new page where you can find every relevant information about the steering committee and the triage meetings. Support for dropping a password from a password manager during setup Some password managers let you drag and drop a password to a textbox. During setup, if we do this rather than focus then type or paste, the tick appears in the input, but the strength indicator doesn't update and clicking Finish setup just does nothing with no indication. The fix was to update the strength.js file to check for the drop event. Add missing Tag Helper references The root of this issue was the Tag Helpers are found during development because of the runtime compilation. But when you change the environment from development to production, it stops working if you don't have a direct reference on the ResourceManagement project. The compilation doesn't find the issue, because it's a runtime resolution. Yes, you can use the a tag it will compile, but in runtime, it has a different behavior based on the projects you reference and you don't get the behavior you expect. The only thing you can do is to have a functional test to be sure that it would work. Tag Helper for the anchor tag with asset-href attribute Added an HtmlTargetElement to the Anchor Tag Helper to also address anchor tags with asset-href attributes. Added needed const and property and changed the Process logic to require non-null asset-href for anchor tags. So, if you use the asset-href in the anchor tag, it will convert the URL of a media URL to a public URL. Demos Shape Components What makes it hard to build a new site using Orchard Core? The ultimate solution would be to remove the templating in Orchard and just use decoupled. So, you don't have to know about shapes at all. And then you just write your pages, your controllers, you have lot's of APIs to get your content, you can reuse ASP.NET caching and do your decoupled site like this. It would be a decoupled site. Let's just forget about shapes and rendering everything from modules. Just let people render their own things and provide tools to render the site. It might be slower at first to build the site, but they will never be blocked by 'I don't know what a shape is.' or 'I don't understand how shapes work.', 'What is placement?' and so on. We have themes and recipes today that build some predefined solutions, like a blog or an agency site and they can be extended to anything. For that, you still have to understand all the shape- and display mechanisms to build these elements. A new solution would be to still create recipes, but recipes that would contain Razor Pages and controllers and anything that would build a blog even if we didn't have shapes and placement and everything. Like build a decoupled site that is a blog and this is the recipe. When you install it you have the same blog, the same theme working and if you want to change it, you don't have to learn shapes. You just look at the page that renders the blog, the blog post and you just change it. Or you create a new one and change the code directly. This would be just ASP.NET, there is nothing new to learn out of ASP.NET. That would be a solution to have. But let's say the issue is not about the shapes, because shapes are great. The issue is zones and placement. And these are harder to learn. Shapes in the end, if you just take shapes by themself, they are just dynamic ViewModels that have alternates and that can be rendered using templates. It's like a view component in ASP.NET. But it's like a view component with more features like it can have an ID, CSS classes, attributes, it can have dynamic behavior, it can have a caching, it has alternates. So, it has a dynamic resolution of templates, which the view component doesn't have. Let's think about a shape like a reusable component, like a view component in ASP.NET, but like an Orchard shape component, that can be reused. Were we able to pique your curiosity? Then just navigate to YouTube and see this exciting demo about shape components! News from the community Orchard Dojo Newsletter Now we have 160 subscribers of the Lombiq's Orchard Dojo Newsletter!

We have mentioned the Shortcodes feature several times and now it's available in the preview packages of Orchard Core. We will also show a demo about how you can use our .NET Analyzers in your Orchard Core solution. Check out our post for more! Orchard Core updates Tabs syntax changed in the documentation Orchard Core documentation contains code samples both in Liquid and Razor languages. You can see the given code samples in tabs near each other. If you want to change between them you just need to click on the Razor or the Liquid tab to see the snippets. Now, if you would like to improve the documentation and put some snippet there too, you have to use a new syntax in Markdown. In the screen below you can see the old one in red, and the new one in green. Thank you for making the documentation better and better! Media root folder selected by default If you navigated to the dashboard of Orchard Core and opened the Media Library (Content -> Media Library) you may found that the images in the root folder were not available on the list on the right. The workaround was to create a new folder to see the files in the root. Now, this issue is fixed, the media root folder is selected by default and you are able to see the content in the media library without any workarounds. New icons for User Disabled and Enabled events A small UI change here. When you add a new User Disabled or User Enabled event to your workflow you will find new icons here. These icons are also used when you are working on your events on the kanban board of your workflows. Shortcodes feature merged Shortcodes are small pieces of code wrapped into [brackets] that can add some behavior to content editors, like embedding media files. The Image Shortcode can be used to display an image from the media library in your WYSIWYG editors. The simplest way to use that Shortcode is the following: . And the good news is that now you can find the Shortcodes and the Shortcode Template features in the preview packages of Orchard Core! In case if you missed you can find two videos on YouTube about Shortcodes: check out this one first, then watch this video for the second part of the demo! We also mentioned these features in This week in Orchard too several times. Check out this for an introduction, then this one for the first demo, finally don't forget to read this post to see the improvements of the Shortcodes! And the documentation is available in this URL! Update configuration documentation The documentation now contains more lines to explain how to read a configuration from an external config file, that you can use in your Startup class. Click here to see the updated page! New workflow task to validate user There is a new Validate User Task to check if the user exists for the current request and has the specified role(s). This task has three outcomes: InRole: if the user in the current request has at least one of the selected roles. Anonymous: if the user in the current request is anonymous. Authenticated: if the user in the current request is authenticated If you check the Set the 'UserName' workflow property if the user is authenticated checkbox, the username of the current user will be added to the Properties dictionary of the WorkflowExecutionContext that you can use in the upcoming tasks. Demos Lombiq .NET Analyzers Our Lombiq .NET Analyzers repository contains .NET code analyzers and code convention settings for Lombiq projects. We use these to enforce common standards across all our .NET projects, including e.g. in all of our open-source Orchard Core extensions. If you contribute to our open-source projects while using that solution you'll be guided by these rules too. There is a built-in code analyzer in Visual Studio, but there is a lot of other analyzer projects out there. These analyzers can find issues in your code, but this is about to extend that and try to find even more issues. The Readme.md file in the repository tells you how you can add these files to your solution in just two quick steps! Now let's see a simple example of this! Let's imagine that you have an interface with a method that represents an asynchronous operation. After we created our great interface with the method you will notice that the IDE complains about some stuff. First of all, we have an interface and a method in it with no documentation. The DoSomethingGreat method is an async method, so the correct name of the method would be DoSomethingGreatAsync. Pretty cool, right? But that's not all! Head to YouTube to see the full demo about Lombiq .NET Analyzers! News from the community Extending event handlers sample in the Lombiq Training Demo for Orchard Core Orchard Core Training Demo module is a demo Orchard Core module for training purposes guiding you to become an Orchard developer. You can use this module as part of a vanilla Orchard Core source that including the full source code - which is the recommended way. You can use it as part of a solution the uses Orchard Core NuGet packages, however, it's harder to look under the hood of Orchard Core features. The latest update of the module is about to show you how you can extend Orchard Core with event handlers. The LoginGreeting class is about to implement the ILoginFormEvent interface and shows a notification to the user after a successful login. Check out the code here! Orchard Core workshops The contributors of Orchard Core will hold some unique online workshops in September 2020. So even with Orchard Harvest postponed due to the coronavirus pandemic we'll get some new learning events. Are you looking to get up to speed with Orchard?

New guides in the Orchard Core documentation to learn how to build a blog that allows users to login with their AzureAD account and gets assigned roles based on the Security Groups they belong to, and how to create a Deployment Plan to migrate from the File Content Definition feature. After we will show you our new Shape Tracing Helpful Extensions feature! Orchard Core updates Content definition stores guide Now you can find a new small guide in the Orchard Core documentation that explains what the File Content Definition feature is, and how to create a Deployment Plan to migrate from the File Content Definition feature. Implement class and alt attributes for ImageShortCode Shortcodes are small pieces of code wrapped into [brackets] that can add some behavior to content editors, like embedding media files. The Image Shortcode can be used to display an image from the media library in your WYSIWYG editors. The simplest way to use that Shortcode is the following: You can also provide several attributes, like the width, height, and mode. And now you can also pass the alt attribute that specifies an alternate text for an image if the image cannot be displayed. And you can pass your custom classes too! In the following line we used the Image Shortcode with multiple parameters: Users with Manage Users permission can't delete themselves or change their roles If you try to delete the admin account and you are currently the admin what you could do is actually block everyone from being able to edit the site if the admin is the only user. The idea here is that you can't delete yourself. If you navigate to Security -> Users and edit the admin user, you will see that the editor of the roles and the Is enabled? checkbox are disabled. Don't Detach a document already loaded for update This is about how documents are loaded from cache stores. If you use the ASP.NET caching abstractions you can store in the IMemoryCache or in the IDistributedCache. The main difference between these two is that in the IDistributedCache you would put stuff that has to be and can be serialized. In IMemoryCache you can put stuff that is not serialized. It's a live object that can be changed and updated. There is a new method for documents in the ISessionHelper called GetForCachingAsync that gets a single document (or create a new one) for caching and that should not be updated, and a bool indicating if it can be cached, not if it has been already loaded for an update. Note that for full isolation, it needs to be used in pairs with the LoadForUpdateAsync method that loads a single document (or create a new one) for updating and that should not be cached. When you call the GetForCachingAsync method you say that the object that you want to load from the database will be cached, which means you should not change it. You should not be able to update it, it's for caching. When you get a document from the database from this layer it will tell you if you are allowed to change it or not. This way you know you can put it in a durable cache or a live cache. Use Azure AD as an external identity provider guide In order to authenticate users with AzureAD, you must enable and configure the OrchardCore.MicrosoftAuthentication.AzureAD (you can learn more about here) and the OrchardCore.Users.Registration features. There is a new guide in the documentation where you will learn to build a blog that allows users to login with their AzureAD account and gets assigned roles based on the Security Groups they belong to. Demos Shape Tracing Helpful Extensions Lombiq Shape Tracing Helpful Extensions adds a dump of metadata to the output about every shape. This will help you understand how a shape is displayed and how you can override it. But let' see how you can use it in your solution! Imagine you have a NuGet-based Orchard Core solution and you would like to use the Shape Tracing Helpful Extensions. For that, you have to clone or download the orchard-core-preview branch of the Helpful Extensions repository that is targeting a recent nightly build of Orchard Core and you will only find the Shape Tracing Helpful Extensions in that branch. Now head to the GitHub repository of the Helpful Libraries module (same branch) and clone or download that too. You will need this library to use the Helpful Extensions. Now add these as an existing project to your solution and don't forget to check the project reference between these two! Reference the Lombiq.HelpfulExtensions module in your Web project and now you are ready to go! Set up a site using the Blog recipe then navigate to Configuration -> Features and search for the word helpful. Here you can find all of the following independent extensions of the module. If you are interested in the other ones too, check out the Readme.MD file of the repository for more! Now we will enable the Shape Tracing Helpful Extensions - Lombiq Helpful Extension feature. After you will get a dump about shapes in the HTML output. Just view the page source where you will see several comments in the code. These are generated when the shape is displayed that gives you some basic debug data. You can use these to actually override the shape. If you navigate to the detail view of the built-in blog post, you will see every relevant data that could be important for you to override the given shape, check the display type, the position, the differentiator, the wrappers of the shape and many more! But that's not all about Shape Tracing Helpful Extensions! If you would like to see more, don't forget to check out this recording on YouTube! News from the community Orchard Nuggets: How to debug a NuGet-based Orchard Core solution? How can you debug Orchard Core code when you're working with a solution that loads Orchard packages from NuGet? Easily! In our newest Orchard Nuggets post, we give you the answer! Check out the other posts for more such bite-sized Orchard tips and let us know if you'd have another question!

This week we see the latest improvements of the Shortcodes module and the new pages of the Orchard Core documentation! Don't forget about our Traning Demo module, which has now got a new RESTful web API sample! Check out our current post for more! Orchard Core updates Highlight invalid fields When you have a driver for your content part or for your content field, the UpdateAsync method will be called when you are about to save and persist the new values of it. Let's say you have a TextField and you want to set it to be required. In the UpdateAsync method of the TextFieldDisplayDriver, we get the TextFieldSettings and if the value of the Required property is true and the Text property of the TextField has no value, then it's time to show an error for the user. Notice the second parameter of the AddModelError method. This is about passing a key to the ModelStateDictionary. The key would be the value of the Text property of the TextField and the Prefix would be the BlogPost.Subtitle string. But why is it important right now? Because there was an issue in Orchard Core about the different highlightings. If there is a validation error, it would be great to highlight the input editor, not just showing the validation summary at the top of the form. So, imagine you have a site installed with the Blog recipe and you set the Subtitle TextField of the Blog Post content type to be required. If you would like to save the existing blog post without providing a subtitle, the driver will pass the BlogPost.Subtitle as the Prefix and the name of the field.Text will be null. It's a small, but a good to know tip to provide a better user experience when editing values. Document Link Tag Helper There is a Tag Helper and a Liquid Helper in Orchard Core called Link that you can use to define the relationship between the current document and an external resource such as a favicon or stylesheet. This helper is available for a while, but there were no words in the documentation about it. Now you can find some lines in the documentation about how to use these helpers in your Orchard Core site. Add user updated event Two weeks ago we wrote about the new user deleted event, which is about to add a new DeletedAsync method to the IUserEventHandler. Now there is another new event for user events, that is about to occur when a user is updated. You can find the new UpdatedAsync method in the IUserEventHandler. And a new event is also accessible from your workflow type. If you create a new workflow type and click on the Add Event button, you will find the User Updated event in the User category. Password configuration documentation The password restrictions are set with the settings configured in ASP.NET Identity. Those options are used to define the required password strength when a user password is set. You can configure these requirements in order to specify properties like the minimal password length or if the process is expecting digits, uppercase, or non-alphanumeric characters. Check out the new how-to guide in the Orchard Core documentation to see how to change these settings and how to read configuration from an external config file! Demos Shortcodes improvements Two weeks ago we wrote about the upcoming Shortcodes feature for Orchard Core. Shortcodes are essential to WordPress, and for the Orchard Core, we wanted a similar feature. The parser was written by hand as the syntax is simple and it needs to be efficient. Check out that post if you haven't read that yet and don't forget to watch the recording on YouTube about that too! Now, let's continue from where we left off and see the newest improvements in that module! Set up your site using the Blog recipe, then head to Configuration -> Features to enable these features: Shortcode Templates: The Shortcode Templates feature provides a way to write custom shortcode templates from the admin. Shortcodes: The Shortcodes feature adds shortcode capabilities. Now head to Design and notice that the Shortcode Templates options is renamed to Shortcodes. Click here and add a new Shortcode! Here you will meet with a slightly changed editor. The first thing that you will notice is when you are starting to fill out the Name, the Hint, and the Usage inputs you will get a live preview in the right about how the card of the Shortcode will look like. You can ask what card do we mean, but let's not move so fast! The Categories selector is now working the same when you add tags to your blog post. You can type to search for the existing categories or add a new category right here from the editor. The Content will be about having the logic of the Shortcode. Here we create a Shortcode called safeimage, it means we sanitize the input from the user before rendering the content. We also created another Shortcode called unsafeimage. That would be the same, the only difference is we didn't call the sanitize Liquid helper. Now edit the Article content item named About. The HTML editor here has the Insert Shortcode button on the toolbar. Click on it and now you will see the cards we have just mentioned a few lines ago! Here you can filter by the name of the Shortcode and can filter by categories. Now let's try out the unsafeimage and the safeimage Shortcodes! After editing the code we have the following lines in the HTML body: unsafeimage: [unsafeimage]media/samoyed.jpg" onload=alert('xss')[/unsafeimage]unsafeimage: [unsafeimage]media/samoyed.jpg[/unsafeimage]safeimage: [safeimage]media/samoyed.jpg[/safeimage] Notice the script in the first line! Because we added this inside an unsafeimage Shortcode, it will render the alert when the user views this page. If we would put this little hack inside a safeimage Shortcode, then it would prevent the alert to appear. But that's not all about Shortcodes! If you would like to see more, don't forget to check out this recording on YouTube! News from the community RESTful web API sample in the Lombiq Training Demo for Orchard Core The Lombiq Training Demo for Orchard Core is a demo Orchard Core CMS module for training purposes guiding you to become an Orchard developer. You can use this module as part of a vanilla Orchard Core source that includes the full source code - which is the recommended way. You can also use it as part of a solution that uses Orchard Core NuGet packages, however, it's harder to look under the hood of Orchard Core features. And the module just got a new little RESTful web API sample! Check it out if you're learning Orchard and want to develop web APIs! Orchard Core workshops The contributors of Orchard Core will hold some unique online workshops in September 2020.

This week we are gonna show you three brand new features that are recently added to Orchard Core: the Add Content To Deployment Plan, the Export Content To Deployment Target, and View Or Download Content As JSON features. After we see a demo about user impersonation and finally we solve the mystery about what is GitHub Arctic Code Vault? Orchard Core updates Add Content To Deployment Plan, Export Content To Deployment Target, and View Or Download Content As JSON features Set up your site using the Blog recipe. Now you can head to Configuration -> Features and enable the Add Content To Deployment Plan, Export Content To Deployment Target, and View Or Download Content As JSON features. This will bring you several new stuff that you can use when you are managing the content items. If you click on the Actions button you can see that the context menu is now getting a lot more items. The Export to Deployment Target is about to automatically create a custom recipe file that can be downloaded locally or send it to a remote instance. You can use the Available Targets modal to select the destination. The Add to Deployment Plan is about to add a new content item step using this content item to an existing deployment plan. In this case, a new modal window will open again that lets you choose from the available deployment plans. The Download as JSON is about to directly download the recipe to your computer locally and the View as JSON is a very helpful feature because as you could see in the screen below it shows you the JSON representation of the content item. The same JSON will go to the content step of the recipe when you are hitting the Download as JSON button. Here you have the availability to copy the JSON structure by clicking on the copy icon at the top-right corner of the page. And don't forget that you can find two demos on YouTube about this feature. Click here for the Click to deploy demo and here to see the second part of the demo! Add authentication checks to some ISite drivers We had some drivers in Orchard Core where we hadn't check that the user has the appropriate permissions to modify the changes of given settings because the controllers won't do that for us. For example, if the user would like to change the settings of the reCAPTCHA, then we have to make sure that the user has the ManageReCaptchaSettings permission to do that. Now, these missings checks are added to the code. Fixing Linux setup by making sure a directory created before creating a file Let's say you would like to host your Orchard Core site in a Linux environment. But unfortunately, the setup failed on installation from Docker-Linux container. The strange issue was a directory needed to be created before file creation. Navigate to the SaveContentDefinitionAsync method of the FileContentDefinitionStore to see the check for the directory. Document HTML Sanitizer and Markdown Pipeline Options An HTML Sanitizer is available as part of the Orchard Core Infrastructure. The Sanitizer cleans user input that could lead to XSS attacks. From now you will find a new page in the Orchard Core Documentation about how to use the Sanitizer in your Razor view, how to configure the Sanitizer in the Startup classes, and much more. Markdown output is also sanitized during the rendering of content with Display Management. This page contains new sections about how to enable/disable or configure the Markdown Sanitization using the MarkdownPipelineOptions. Demos User impersonation Open GitHub in your browser and navigate to the OrchardCoreContrib.Modules repository. This repository contains a set of modules for Orchard Core CMS driven by the community members who love Orchard Core. Here we will focus on the one called Impersonation. That feature allows administrators to sign in with other user identities. To try this out, let's clone or download this repository then set up your site using a chosen recipe. After, navigate to Configuration -> Features and enable the Impersonation feature. To try out the impersonation, we need to have multiple users in the system. Go to Security -> Users and click on the Add User button to add a new one. In this case, we created a new user with the Author role with the author user name. In the users list, you will find a new green button called Impersonate. Here the Impersonate button is disabled for the admin user because we have already signed in with that user. So, click on that button near the user named author and see what will happen! You could notice a slightly changed admin UI in this case. The reason for that is quite simple: users with the Author role have access to the admin UI with some content and media library-related permissions. So in that case you can do and you can see what this exact user can see and can do in that site. It's a good way to for example test the permissions and the rights for that user. If you would like to end the impersonation and return your work using your account, you can just simply have to navigate to Security -> End Impersonation, that will do the trick for you. If you are interested in the full demo, head to YouTube for the recording! News from the community Orchard Core on GitHub Arctic Code Vault The GitHub Arctic Code Vault is a data repository preserved in the Arctic World Archive (AWA), a very-long-term archival facility 250 meters deep in the permafrost of an Arctic mountain. The archive is located in a decommissioned coal mine in the Svalbard archipelago, closer to the North Pole than the Arctic Circle. GitHub captured a snapshot of every active public repository on 02/02/2020 and preserved that data in the Arctic Code Vault. And why it is important? Because Orchard Core also sits in this Code Vault! If you have contributed a repository that is in the Code Vault you will see that in your GitHub profile! Check out this exciting video about the GitHub Arctic Code Vault! Lombiq Offline event Sometimes it's not just about work but doing something just for fun. These events are specifically for this: we get together, do something cool like breaking out of an escape room, going for a go-kart ride, or playing paintball. A few days ago we went hiking then we went back to Budapest in a boat. Check out this new picture of our team, shot at our Lombiq Offline event! While here in Hungary there are no restrictions on events like this anymore, we played it safe with a fully outdoor program. You can find this new picture on our About us page too!

The community has just released RC 2 a few weeks ago, but ever since Orchard Core has got several new features. This week among others we are going to see the extensible filters for contents admin list and the generic site settings deployment step. Orchard Core updates New column to the media library table view Enter the dashboard of your Orchard Core site and navigate to Content -> Media Library. Here you can view the uploaded files in a list view and in a grid view. You can switch between them using the little icons on the left side of the Filter textbox. If you view the files using the list view you will see a new column called LastModify. You can also sort the items by clicking on the header of the LastModify column. Extensible filters for contents admin list You can extend what filters are available in the contents admin list and each module can provide their own filters. Let's see this feature closely! First, install your site using the Blog recipe. Now, head to Configuration -> Features and enable the Taxonomies Contents List Filters and the Content Localization modules. The Content Localization is about to provide a part that allows localizing content items. The Taxonomies Contents List Filters feature is adding a new option under Configuration -> Settings -> Taxonomy Filters where you can select the taxonomies to filters in the contents list. As you can see, the Blog recipe comes with two predefined taxonomies: Tags and Categories. Let's select both ones. Now, head to Content -> Content Items, where you could see three new drop-downs. Categories and Tags can be used to filter by the values of the Category and the Tag Term content type. Just for the sake of demonstration make the Blog Post content type listable to see the Blog Post content items in the content items list. After if you select to filter for the content items that have the Earth tag, you will see the default one, because that post has each of these three existing posts. And you can easily add your own filters for the content items list! Without going into the details you have to add a new driver by implementing the DisplayDriver<ContentOptionsViewModel> abstract class and implement the IContentsAdminListFilter interface where you can provide the logic for filtering - modify the query (IQuery<ContentItem>) - content items. Check the TaxonomyContentsAdminListDisplayDriver.cs and the TaxonomyContentsAdminListFilter.cs files to see good examples about how to create your own filters. There was a demo about the new content filters and in the case, if you haven't seen it yet, you can watch the recording here. Demo videos in docs From time to time, the members of the community will do demos to show the latest features and improvements of the CMS. These videos are very helpful if you would like to learn a given topic (for example how to create Custom Settings using the admin UI) and you prefer videos. Now every topic in the documentation of Orchard Core containing the recording that is about showing you how to use the given feature. If we stay at the same example we will see the video at the bottom of the Custom Settings page. Add and implement IsJson() string extension method We are sure that you will meet some code in the future that is using JSON in their editor templates and you want to/need to validate that the text supplied in the editor is valid JSON. Now you can find a string extension method called IsJson() in the OrchardCore.Mvc.Utilities classes to do this. Demos Generic Site Settings Deployment Step When you navigate to the GitHub page of Orchard Core and list the open issues you will find one that is about listing the missing deployment steps, which means some settings do not have a deployment step to import and export them. The goal here is to be able to import/export every setting. For that, we have to get familiar with the notion of Generic Site Settings Deployment Step. You will find a new class library called OrchardCore.Settings.Core, where is a folder named Deployment that is containing logic to add site settings to a DeploymentPlanResult, a generic display driver that is responsible for the UI of the deployment plan and many more. Feel free to discover the content of this project! Now let's jump to the OrchardCore.Admin module. If you want to handle the custom settings via the OrchardCore.Settings.Core library, don't forget to reference it in your project. If you do that you can easily import/export the settings in your deployment plan. There is a class called AdminSettings in the OrchardCore.Admin module that contains one DisplayMenuFilter boolean property. Let's make it importable/exportable! Head to the Startup.cs file of the module and check out the DeploymentStartup class of it. Here you can see how you can use the provided generic business logic from the OrchardCore.Settings.Core project. You can see that we created a new deployment plan with the name: Admin settings and the description: Exports the admin settings by just passing these localized strings to the SiteSettingsPropertyDeploymentStepDriver. That's an easy and generic way to implement a deployment plan for your settings in your module! If you would like to know more about the generic site settings deployment step, head to YouTube! News from the community Intensive Orchard Core training for the In Motion team We had the opportunity to provide a five-day intensive Orchard Core training for the In Motion team! Read our post to know more details about the training! Orchard Core workshops The contributors of Orchard Core will hold some unique online workshops in September 2020.

We are thrilled to announce that Orchard Core RC 2 is now available! Check out this post to know everything about the latest release of Orchard Core. This week we will also show you a great demo about the brand new code snippets for Visual Studio, which will make your Orchard Core development more efficient! Orchard Core updates User menu as a shape There is a user menu at the top-right corner of the admin theme. In this menu, you could see the name of the logged-in user, and here is a button that you can use to log off. In the past, if you would like to change the look and feel of this menu, you had to override the whole Layout.cshtml file of the theme, because this was the file where we rendered the menu. From now there is a new shape called UserMenu, which is just about containing that piece of content that is responsible to display the user menu. So, if you would like to override that menu, just create a new Razor file in your admin theme called Usermenu.cshtml. Reviewing encoders usages There was a bug when you are sending an email, where your chars might be JSON-encoded. Let's say that you were using workflows to send a bunch of emails and in this case, Liquid is used to construct the body of the emails. You can have input data like "Country": "België" that you are rendering with {{order.UserProfile.Country}}<br />. However, workflow Liquid evaluator is using JavaScriptEncoder rather than HtmlEncoder. This results in an email with Belgi\u00EB in the body. By default when ASP.Net Core injects it's HTML helpers, it will encode all the Unicode chars. If you have any Unicode char, it will be encoded, which means you will not see the actual characters even if the browser supports Unicode characters. To prevent that you can configure the WebEncoderOptions in your web application to say that the TextEncoderSettings will accept all Unicode ranges. That means it will don't encode anything that is based on Unicode ranges. It will still encode HTML, but any char that is a Unicode char will still be returned as a Unicode char and not as an HTML entity or a URL entity or a JSON entity and so on. It's better to just opt-in for the ranges you want, but in this case, it's just a sample code to show you how you can do that. If you look at your source code when you use such chars, you will see you will have lots of HTML entities instead of the chars you wrote. Once you do that, it could be the actual chars. And also, when you are using an encoder, just resolve it in the constructor, because the encoders are registered in the DI using the mentioned arguments. If you don't want to use the arguments (TextEncoderSettings) for a custom piece of code, then don't resolve the encoder, use HtmlEncoder.Default. For more information, check out the documentation! Demos Orchard Core code snippets for Visual Studio Orchard Dojo Library is a portable package of coding and training guidelines, development utilities. These are also part of the best practices and guidelines we use at Lombiq. This library contains Visual Studio code snippets to quickly generate code in some common scenarios during the Orchard Core module and theme development. To effectively use this collection of VS snippets just point the Snippets Manager to where you cloned or downloaded this folder. To do this go under Tools → Code Snippets Manager → select the C# language → Add and Add the whole folder. For Razor snippets to also work select the HTML Language and do the same. Do note that Razor snippets will only be suggested when you hit Ctrl + space first. You can download the snippets from this GitHub repository. For example, if you type oc, the IntelliSense in Visual Studio will show you the suggestions. In the screen below you could see the code that is generated if you are using the ocmigrations snippet. That is about generating a class that implements the DataMigration abstract class and you will also get a Create method, that is the minimum requirement if you would like to add a migration. But that's not all! Check out this recording to see more snippets in action! News from the community Orchard Core RC 2 released We are thrilled to announce that Orchard Core RC 2 is now available! There is a new blog post in Orchard Core Blog that shows you the new features of the latest release. Here you could find the content localization support, and pre-configured localized Setup experience, the improved block content management experience, sitemaps management, and Azure support improvements. The NuGet packages are also updated on nuget.org. It's still prerelease of Orchard Core (the last one), so if you would like to update the packages in your solution, don't forget to put a tick in the Include prerelease checkbox if you are using Visual Studio. And don't forget the Roadmap! Here you could see a list of the fully or partially implemented features and the plans for the future releases! Upgrade your solution to RC 2 now!

This repository contains the Helpful Libraries for Orchard Core that includes DateTime Libraries with TimeZone conversion, Localization Libraries and many more! But it also contains the Vue.js module for Orchard Core, the Training Demo module and that's not all of it! A new blog post about Orchard Core Nuno Cancelo is a software Engineer, eager to learn, and even more to share knowledge. Last week he published a great post about the basics of Orchard Core and he planned to publish 3 more parts where he will write about how you can create a module, a recipe, and a theme. Don't hesitate and start this journey now! Orchard Core workshops The contributors of Orchard Core will hold some unique online workshops in the coming months, between May and September 2020. So even with Orchard Harvest postponed due to the coronavirus pandemic we'll get some new learning events. Lombiq's developers will also give two workshops, on using Orchard from the admin UI and on developing a module. Are you looking to get up to speed with Orchard?

This week we prepared with two new demos: the Taxonomy Localization and the Orchard Core OpenAPI Code Generation Tools based on NSwag! But before doing that, let's see the latest changes that will be added to the RC2 release of Orchard Core that is now really just a few days ahead! Orchard Core updates Refactor Blog recipe to have fewer required fields You may found that creating blog posts in Orchard Core using the Blog recipe could be not very user friendly. When you create a new blog post, you have to provide tags and select the category for the posts, however, you will also need to add a banner image for it. These are all required fields, without these, you cannot publish your post. But from now these fields are optional and the Markdown editor is just below the Title and the Permalink, so you don't need to scroll down to start typing your new exciting post! Add ConfirmationEmailSubject to RegisterUserTask When you are dealing with workflows you can find a task called Register User. This is about register a user from a form field, meaning that the activity is getting the request body as a form to get an IFormCollection and try to get the UserName and Email values from that. If everything goes fine, the task will register the user and if you edit the activity, you will find some more stuff to set up! Here you can say to send a confirmation email to the user with a given subject and you can also use a template for the confirmation email if you want! How to contribute to the Orchard Core documentation? Have you ever thought about contributing to the Orchard Core documentation, but you cannot find a line about how to do that? Well, here comes the good news! From now, you will find a new guide in the documentation that tells you everything that you need to know to add your great getting started guides, tutorials, and everything to the documentation! Thank you for doing that! Change content API permissions You want anonymous users to be able to view your site, view your page/content item and it would just show what the layout is or the view is. But you might not want anonymous users to retrieve the full content item JSON payload, because it might shows some properties and metadata that you don't want to expose. For that, you could use the custom permission called GetApiContent that you can assign to specific roles and this is not assigned to anonymous users by default. Now, this permission was renamed to AccessContentApi and protects all /api/content methods. If you don't want a user to see all the fields, just don't grant access to the APIs at all, hence the GetApiContent permission is not required as a separate one. This will also protect POST that currently returns the full content. And one more thing: the GetApiContent was already added to the Authenticated role. Now it's removed from that role as being authenticated should not grant access to all fields. Prevent array duplication when merging existing content When you do Merge using JSON.Net it will just merge the different arrays. In some cases, it's not what you want. If you want an array to be replaced (for example an array of tags) then it will just add a new tag to that array and not replacing the array with a new array. On the POST operation of the API, you just want to replace the value and the PATCH operation should be the one that merges different arrays in this case. So, the Content ApiController needs to use ArrayHandling.Replace when updating existing content, or array values are duplicated. Here you can see the changed code and here comes the UpdateJsonMergeSettings: private static readonly JsonMergeSettings UpdateJsonMergeSettings = new JsonMergeSettings { MergeArrayHandling = MergeArrayHandling.Replace }; Demos Taxonomy Localization Have you ever wondered how to localize your taxonomy terms in Orchard Core? Well, it could be hard to do it for the first time, but if you are watching the following recording you can get some tips and tricks to reach your goal faster! Orchard Core OpenAPI Code Generation Tools based on NSwag Head to GitHub and clone the master branch of the ThisNetWorks.OrchardCore.OpenApi repository. Make sure that the ThisNetWorks.OrchardCore.OpenApi.Sample project is your starting project then just simply build and run the solution. When setting up your site don't forget to use the Open API Sample recipe to enable the needed modules and theme. If you navigate to https://localhost:44300/swagger, you will see the endpoints that are available in Orchard Core and a sample controller named Foo that comes from the ThisNetWorks.OrchardCore.OpenApi.SampleModule module. Here you can make queries on them and now we will also get schemas that are generated using the NSwag toolchain! Let's check for example the BlogPostItemDto! Now we can use those! The samples folder contains a console client that you can use to try the endpoints. You can simply open the solution with Visual Studio (ThisNetWorks.OrchardCore.OpenApi.ConsoleClient.sln) and fire up the ThisNetWorks.OrchardCore.OpenApi.ConsoleClient project. This is about calling the endpoints by using a static HttpClient. Open the Program.cs file and check the first few lines of the Main method here. You could see that we are getting a content item by the 4qnhdhv3z54xk4fg4tdfke76c9 and we get the content of the content item in the FooTextItemDto object. The content item with the mentioned ID is a content item of the Foo text content type, which has got one Text Field attached, named Foo Field. Our client modifies the text of this field and making a POST request to send the updated data to Orchard Core. Now if you read back from the API you will get the updated content item with the new text in the Foo Field. But there is a lot more than that! You can see that you can get the RecentBlogPosts Lucene query and use the response data, or do other Lucene queries (like give me all the blog posts) and so on. If you are interested in it, there is also a TypeScript client (tsClient.ts) which has the same kind of classes and can be used directly from TypeScript. Of course, before doing that, you have to do the authentication, get the token, and so on. For that, you have to enable the OpenID module and configure it. It also comes with the recipe by default. The back-end, the Swagger is using Authorization Code Flow, and the console client is using Client Credentials Flow. The client app has a specific API role because it's relevant to just give very limited and specific access to the system. And that's not all of it! If you need more details about the project, don't forget to check the recording on YouTube! News from the community Orchard Nuggets: How to access services from another tenant in Orchard Core?

This week we are going to see some code and code samples that could be good to know when developing your Orchard Core application. But we are not just doing that! We will also show you a nice demo about how to create custom settings in Orchard Core just using the admin UI without typing a line of code! Let's start our journey! Orchard Core updates Adding branding assess to docs You can find a new page in the documentation called Orchard Core Branding where you can find graphics assets for Orchard Core's branding. Allow classes by default with the HTML sanitizer Last week we saw the new HtmlSanitizerService in Orchard Core that is responsible for sanitizing the HTML code. Now when you are adding Orchard CMS to your application by calling the AddOrchardCms extension method, it will call the AddHtmlSanitizer extension method that will set up the HtmlSanitizerOptions. And it will add the class as an allowed HTML attribute to the sanitizer. Change [media] short code to Add IServiceProvider to shape Creating Created contexts The ShapeCreatedContext didn't have a ServiceProvider as the ShapeDisplayContext do. This means services resolved through an IShapeTableProvider with OnCreated either need to be resolved through the constructor, which causes disposed exceptions, and scope capturing, or by directly accessing the ShellScope.Services. But what does it mean in practice? Let's say you inherit from the ShapeFactoryEvents abstract class that implements the IShapeFactoryEvents interface and you want to add some additional logic after your shape has been created. In our case, we would like to show a new notification when a shape has been created. For that somehow we need to resolve the INotifier and the IHtmlLocalizer. To achieve our goal we can just simply get the ServiceProvider from the ShapeCreatedContext and implement the business logic. Update Fluid and YesSql dependencies Now you can track objects that have been saved and then modified again after a flush in YesSql. In Fluid everything is a decimal now and not a double because when you do 10 - 0.9 you want to see 9.1 and not 9.000009. Demos Custom Settings You may know that you can create custom settings on Orchard Core by writing some code: implement the class to store the properties, add a SectionDisplayDriver to it, then pass your class using a ViewModel to a Razor page. You may also need to implement the INavigationProvider interface to be able to reach your setting in the admin UI from a new option on the menu. But you can also create custom settings without the need of writing any line of code in a very easy way. Do you want to know how? First, we set up the site using the Blog recipe, but you can choose any of the built-in ones, you just make sure that the Custom Settings feature is enabled. Now, navigate to the admin UI of Orchard Core and select Content -> Content Definition -> Content Types and create a new content type. Let's call it Company Brand. This setting is about storing some related information about a company. The company will have a name and a logo. For that, we will attach a Text Field and a Media Field to our content type. You have to do two things to make this content type a custom setting: Disable Creatable, Listable, Draftable and Securable metadata as they don't apply. Set the stereotype of the content type to CustomSettings. And that's all! Congratulations, you created a custom setting in Orchard Core without writing any code! If you don't believe that, head to Configuration -> Settings where now you can already see a new option called Company Brand. If you click on it, the CMS will show you the editor of your content type just as you set it up when you defined the content definition of your type. Now you can work with this custom setting as you would work with the ones that you create using code. Don't forget, the documentation of Orchard Core contains a great section about custom settings. If you prefer videos, you can also check out how to create custom settings just using the admin UI on YouTube! News from the community Check your language in the Setup screen of Orchard Core With the next public release so close, please check that your language looks perfect in the Setup screen. Some culture files are only missing a few strings: Greek (1) Japanese (3) Persian (1) Polish (3) Russian (3) Spanish (1) Turkish (8) If you speak one of the listed languages, just fire up a new Orchard Core site and select your language using the picker in the top-right corner of the screen. If you find any incorrect translation or some weird string, just leave a comment below! Orchard Core workshops The contributors of Orchard Core will hold some unique online workshops in the coming months, between May and September 2020.
