No need to do any SQL, in fact you shouldn't even need to access the database in Umbraco.
Have a look at these 5 free videos and learn all about the wonderful world of templates and macros! And if you can't get enough, after that have a look at 4 more free videos covering (among others) .net usercontrols.
Ps. Your data IS stored in the database but it is completely cached in-memory and as a fallback on disk in your umbraco.config file (in the /App_Data or the /data folder, depending on your umbraco version).
Also have a look at the uTube package for awesome youtube integration!
Newbie seeks Umbraco/SQL advice
Hello everybody! :)
I am trying to configure a website, so my girlfriend can maintain it herself (else it would be a fulltime job! :)).
What she would like to do is to store som youtube links so it will be shown on the website.
I have created a usercontrol that can do that. The problem is my usercontrol needs the list of
links. Is it possible to make a macro that can do CRUD operations to a SQL table, or does it already exsist pr. default?
I have tried the "relatedlinks" macro and this works except i cant figure out where the data is stored :)
If i could find that data on the umbraco_db, my problem, is solved:)
