Create a Macro that allows you to add multiple Slide Blocks

HI,

I would like to create a Macro that allows a user to add multiple slides to a carousel. I could use a Multiple Media picker but this limits me to just images. I would like the user to include a URL, Header, Content to EACH slide.

Is this possible?

Jon

Hi Jonathan

Of course, it's possible, try to use Multiple Node Tree Picker and slider item documentType, where you will have URL, Header, Content and image.

Another option is to use NestedContent - https://our.umbraco.org/projects/backoffice-extensions/nested-content/

Thanks,

Alex

Thanks a lot - that really helps.

Can I ask? I have another ticket and I know you are very clued up on Umbraco so I you seem the best person to ask

Have you ever installed Umbraco onto 2016 using SQLs Encryption?

We have tried but not sure of the correct procedure. At the moment we Install Umbraco onto 2016, update the webconfig and then encrypt certain columns in the database, which include the sensitive columns in the umbracoUser table. But once updated we cant login.

Hi Jonathan

Really interesting topic about SQLs Encryption - https://our.umbraco.org/forum/umbraco-forms/86655-umbraco-form-encryption#comment-275618

Something like that should work - https://www.red-gate.com/simple-talk/sql/database-administration/sql-server-encryption-always-encrypted/

Jonathan, encryption is a really interesting topic, please share what did you find.

Thanks,

Alex

Hi,

Yes - those links are interesting.

Getting SQL set up is the easy bit :) - it is Umbraco not letting me login once I have encrypted the User table is the problem.

Ill keep you posted with any findings.

Thanks Jon
