GSF-12 is finally here! Yay!!!
This new version comprehends brand new features, but also a major reorganization of the entire project's codebase and several features getting deprecated in benefit of some of WebCenter Sites 12c's native features.
From news to commerce sites, developers often find themselves in the position of needing to display related content - and for good reason! In UX, leveraging related posts is regarded as a best practice. It isn't hard to see why when you consider the associated benefits:
If your company has a website, you've probably heard the “Usability” buzzword (your site's ease of use) thrown around a lot with the popularity of user-center design – with studies showing its direct correlation to increased ROI.
This is a slightly lengthy tutorial on creating your own D3 (or any other open source JavaScript library) visualization and app for use in Splunk. It assumes familiarity with creating Splunk Apps, as well as with JavaScript, and as such is at a more intermediate level: before creating this app, you might want to work on both your JavaScript skills and work on creating some Splunk visualizations with Splunk JS or Simple XML. You should also familiarize yourself with the code for the existing D3 visualizations in splunk so you can be ready to create new ones.
(UPDATE: A newer version of the code can be found here. It now inlcudes basic error handling, and also has been changed from "gauge" to "meter" to avoid confusion with Splunk's built-in "radial gauge" visualization.)
At Function1, we have many employees who work remotely, from different countries and time zones compared to where our main offices are located. Of course, sometimes travel is necessary, and our teams come together to complete projects with clients onsite or due to security restrictions on remote work, to name a few reasons. I, personally, have only been to our Toronto office - the one closest to me - once in several years.
With the introduction of WebCenter Sites 12c (WCS) came a new friend, the Site Visitor Service (SVS). Due to the increasing importance of providing a personalized experience, the management of visitor profiles in a website, has become a critical piece of the puzzle.
Encryption of some fields when creating a modular input is sometimes needed when security becomes an issue. There are a few ways with the most common being the creation of a setup.xml file for the modular input schema. When using setup.xml however, you lose some of the modular input schemas built in to the python SDK. However, when not using setup.xml and still would like to use the python SDK to encrypt an input field it is still possible with a bit of work. In this writing I will go over one way of encrypting an input field using an additional field as an identifier.
System Events in WebCenter Sites are very useful for running elements in the background without any user intervention. They are registered in the SystemEvents table and can point to any SiteCatalog entry or SiteEntry asset. Sometimes you're sure it has been registered properly but for some reason it just isn't running. You tried setting the logger "com.fatwire.logging.cs.event" to DEBUG and all events are running just fine except for yours, which doesn't appear in the logs at all.
