Thanks :)

Can't wait for the next version, great package.

Hi Matt

Any estimates on when support for Media section might be coming?

cheers!

Hi,

Ive created a quick fix for ver 1.2. 

You can download it from here.

Just replace the dll and the App_Plugins/Vorto content.

Regards,

Moshe

Bit late to the party, and inspired by Moshe, we found a smaller fix that might be helpful to someone (unless someone else has found a better way?).

public object GetDataTypeByAlias(string contentTypeAlias, string propertyAlias)
    {
        IContentTypeComposition contentType = Services.ContentTypeService.GetContentType(contentTypeAlias);

        if (contentType == null)
        {
            //should be media
            contentType = Services.ContentTypeService.GetMediaType(contentTypeAlias);
        }

        var prop = contentType.CompositionPropertyTypes.SingleOrDefault(x => x.Alias == propertyAlias);
        if (prop == null)
            return null;

        var dtd = Services.DataTypeService.GetDataTypeDefinitionById(prop.DataTypeDefinitionId);
        return FormatDataType(dtd);

    }

Hi Tom,

Could you please let me know where this code goes?

Thanks,

Steve

Hi Steve,

Sorry should have made that more obvious!

It goes in the VortoApiController, under web > controllers > VortoApiController.cs

Hope it helps you out :)

Hi Tom,

Thanks, but, strangely, I can't find that file (or directory) anywhere in the site (Umbraco 7.1.3 and Vorto 1.2 installed).

If you have any advice on where to look or what might cause it not to be visible that would be great!

Steve

Hi Steve, no worries, I thought you had the source code downloaded ;)

I've built the vorto source code with the fix applied, and uploaded it here for you:

http://we.tl/ffspUkNCqs

However I don't think the source code is fully up to date as we had to add some methods that were missing in, so I can't guarantee it will work 100% - However we are running the same files on one of our sites and it works fine for us.

All you should need to do is copy the files from the zip into the bin folder of the website (backup the old .dll just in case!).

Hopefully Matt will see these posts and update the package for everyone else as I'm sure they would appreciate another feature for such an excellent package!

Tom

Wow Tom - Thanks a lot for all of this.

You are correct - I did not have the source code. I will try your build and get back to you once I have it up and running.

Yes, hopefully Matt will have a look. It really is a great package and functionality in the media section would only make it better!

Best regards,

Steve

Hi,

Apologies to gatecrash this - I would be really interested in seeing this if you can please make the download available again?

Many thanks,

Hi Guys,

Just thought I'd let you know that media section support has now been added in version 1.4.

Thanks for the feedback.

Matt

Hello,

I just tried to use Vorto in the media section in Umbraco 7.5.0 and 7.5.2 but I'm getting this error when I try to save:

Received an error from the server
An error occured

I also tried this on 7.4.3 and it works there.
