    Adding uBlogsy to an existing site

    Hey Anthony

    Was just trying out uBlogsy to see if it was a good fit for something that I am working on at the moment.  I ran into a little issue during the installation.  I already had a content tree with a homepage.  After the install it had renamed the homepage but not changed its doctype (thank goodness) but it had also put in all the blog starter docs etc under that homepage.  The blog also is broken when you try and browse it because it cant find the landing page.

    Item has already been added. Key in dictionary: 'GetLanding_uBlogsyLanding'  Key being added: 'GetLanding_uBlogsyLanding'

    It would be great if uBlogsy didn't assume that it was the only thing in the Umbraco installation and that it should create a new tree.  Not sure if it was just something borked in my install. Hopefully it is something simple that you can detect during install.

    Best regards

    Peter

    that's bizzzzzaaaarrrr!!!

    i've installed ublogsy on sites which already had nodes...

    was the original home page node the same name as the root of ublogsy?...i'm not sure if that would be an issue.

    the package doesnt care about where in the tree it sits... it's just like any content nodes and doctypes that you package up normally....the root content node will be put at the root level when you install the package just like any other packaged content

    what did you already have installed?

    any error logs?

    Hi guys,

    I have the same error.I have installed ublogsy on top of an existing StarterKit website. uBlogsy by default was created in root (parallel with homepage)

    Both are running OK  (home page and ublogsy) but when I try to add the macro for showing top 5 posts into homepage template.

     <umbraco:Macro ID="Macro2" Alias="uBlogsyListPosts" ItemCount="5"    Small="1" runat="server" PagePramForCache="[@page]" />

    I get the same error:

    Error Loading Razor Script (file: uBlogsy - List Posts) Item has already been added. Key in dictionary: 'GetLanding_uBlogsyLanding' 

    The Macro is working fine when I run uBlogsy is just that is not wk on homepage.

    Any help would be appreciated.Thx

    Hey Peter did you figure out what your crash was caused by?

    I know this is an older post, but i've used uBlogsy alot and intergated it completely fine into my existing sites and it initially installs as a new node off content and i just integrate into my home node child and edit the templates etc and everything is great. I've just installed the most recent umbraco v 6.0.0 and now installing ublogsy it replaces my home node still keeping the home doc type and i can't seem to move it onto its own node to integrate it like i normally do. Any solutions at all? 

     

    Thanks

    Not really guaranteed to work with v6 at the moment since v6 has some breaking changes.

    Try v4.11.4

    I managed to rectify by making a new Home node and moving my children over to it then moving uBlogsy underneath it, i had to delete the date folders and tester posts as it was bringing up an error : Value cannot be null when trying to publish these. New ones i made have published fine and i've integrated it as normal.

    Thanks i panicked for a while !
