Remaining work for 5.0.0 netcore release for Umbraco 9

[Shazwazza]

Remaining work to do for 5.0.0
TODO: This list is not complete!

• Custom routes (see ArticulateRouter)
  • Tags + Categories
  • RSS for Tags/Categories
  • RSS + XSLT
  • Search
  • Markdown editor
  • Authors RSS
  • Meta weblog
  • Meta weblog Manifest
  • Rsd
  • Open search
  • Resetting routes when umbraco content changes
• App_Plugins/Themes can be shipped but shouldn't be editable
  • For custom themes that are created in the back office, these should be created in the typical /Views/ folder probably under /Views/Articulate. The files in App_Plugins should be readonly.
• Multi-target .net6 + .net7
• BlobMl import/export
  • DisqusXmlExport.xml isn't saved (there is a TODO)
  • Exporting and importing with base64 images
• Changing all media usages over to use new media picker and media gallery
• Re-implement OutputCache commented out attributes

Known issues

• The current documentation is out of date and should be synced with what is supported in v5
• a-new Markdown editor for creating posts doesn't properly support images yet
• UrlHelperExtensions.ArticulateAuthorRssUrl
• Rendering the Tags or Categories ends up with RenderTagHtmlContentDateName line items, maybe this is only when date formatted slugs are used?
• Surface controller forms rendered on virtual nodes (i.e. tags/categories) and using RedirectToCurrentUmbracoPage. Used to be done with VirtualNodeUrlProvider + ArticulateVirtualPage, but ArticulateVirtualPage is not used anymore, so needs testing and potentially fixing.
• Tags/Categories RSS YSODs
• BlobMl importer won't work for variants (known issue before this release)
• BlobMl importer won't work for RTE with macros embedded (known issue before this release)
• RSS feed listed in source under application/rss+xml is always for the root RSS even when rendering tags/category pages (which have their own RSS feeds) (known issue before this release)

Hi @Shazwazza,

I was wondering if you are progressing with the V9 or V10 implementation.

Best regards,
Vasilis

[Shazwazza]

I haven't had much time to look into this, I would love the community to provide some assistance if possible.

[warrenbuckley]

@Shazwazza RSS for Tags/Categories in the Router is already done

[Shazwazza]

@warrenbuckley awesome, have marked above

[warrenbuckley]

@Shazwazza this also seems to be done already

UrlHelperExtensions.ArticulateAuthorRssUrl

[warrenbuckley]

@Shazwazza Just a few more items that have been fixed by PRs that are not checked off in this list

Tags/Categories RSS YSODs - Fixed in #397

Rendering the Tags or Categories ends up with RenderTagHtmlContentDateName line items, maybe this is only when date formatted slugs are used? - Fixed in #390

[warrenbuckley]

Have a pending PR #403 for

Resetting routes when umbraco content changes

[DasMergo]

@Shazwazza Is there a timeline when Articulate will be available for Umbraco 10? Thanks!?

[Shazwazza]

No timeline, this is a community effort right now. Warren has been making great progress but there's still more work to go and then testing and then beta and rtm.

Hi @Shazwazza, Now this package, is available for Umbraco V10 or V11?

[OwainWilliams]

Hey @Shazwazza
Was going to have a look at "Rendering the Tags or Categories ends up with RenderTagHtmlContentDateName line items, maybe this is only when date formatted slugs are used?" but I was wondering if there was any more info about this? I enabled date formated slugs and couldn't see anything obvious to do with tags etc.
Thanks.

[Shazwazza]

@OwainWilliams hrm, sorry it's been a long time, I 'think' this is referring to rendering tags/categories actually outputs the text: "RenderTagHtmlContentDateName" instead of the actual tags/categories. I can't remember if this is when rendering the tags/categories pages (i.e. https://shazwazza.com/categories) or not. There's also potential, that maybe this is fixed. Sorry, i guess this just needs some investigation.

[OwainWilliams]

@Shazwazza I guess even just investigating the issue and getting it ticked off as fixed is a help?

I'll look at this tomorrow.

[Shazwazza]

Absolutely :)

• Rendering the Tags or Categories ends up with RenderTagHtmlContentDateName line items, maybe this is only when date formatted slugs are used?

I've had a look around a few places and rendered tags and categories where they weren't already showing (e.g. homepage) and tags and categories render without any issues. I'd say this has been fixed

[OwainWilliams]

• a-new Markdown editor for creating posts doesn't properly support images yet

Not sure what else is expected from the markdown editor but I selected an image from the backoffice and it rendered with no issues on the front end.

[Shazwazza]

@OwainWilliams the MD editor in question is the front-end /a-new path that is used to create blog posts, see https://github.com/Shazwazza/Articulate/wiki/Creating-a-blog-post#using-markdown-from-your-browser-works-great-with-mobile-phones-too

[Shazwazza]

@OwainWilliams ok lets mark the tag/category item as resolved, thanks!

[Shazwazza]

@OwainWilliams also for the "BlobMl importer ..." items, we don't need to worry about this since its a known issue in past releases. These should be converted to bugs if they aren't already.

I can check and I'll raise bugs if needed.

[Shazwazza]

@OwainWilliams I've also added another bullet point above - the Articulate docs are slightly out of date compared to what is available in v5.
