Gulla.Episerver.Globe for CMS 12

This is the readme for the CMS 12 version, the version for CMS 11 is over here.

The good old days

In Episerver CMS prior to the UI refresh in Episerver.CMS.UI 11.21.0 we were able to open the current content, and see what our visitors would see, by simply clicking the globe on the toolbar.

A roller coaster

In Episerver.CMS.UI 11.21.0 the globe disappeared! In Episerver.CMS.UI 11.30.0 it was back! But not for long! In EPiServer.CMS.UI 12.22.0 it was removed again!

Get the globe back

Using this module, you'll get that old familiar globe back on your toolbar! Unfortunately, there are currently no working NuGet package for CMS 12.

Installing

• Copy src\Gulla.Episerver.Globe\Scripts to \wwwroot\ClientResources\Scripts\Globe in your project
• In module.config add details seen below

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<module>
  <dojo>
    <paths>
      <add name="globe" path="Scripts/Globe" />
    </paths>
  </dojo>

   <clientModule initializer="globe.Initializer">
    <moduleDependencies>
      <add dependency="CMS" type="RunAfter" />
    </moduleDependencies>
  </clientModule>
</module>

And, once again, the globe is back!
