When a blog instance is secured, a feed manager within the same site cannot see it even if InternalFeedSecurityBypassKey is configured. For a fuller diagnosis (and also a workaround) see https://www.mojoportal.com/Forums/Thread.aspx?pageid=5&t=13359~1

Create a blog in a site running under HTTPS (with SSLIsAvailable and Require SSL on all pages). The feed link generated by switching on "Show Feed Links?" in the blog settings gives the link with http prefix rather than https, e.g.
http://mysite.com/Blog/RSS.aspx?p=179~151~-1
Observed in 2.4.1.0 MSSQL

This will save a lot of confusing (so I'm told) clicks for web authors. This could be a checkbox during page creation, which defaults to true or false as determined by an app setting.

the problem arises in line 410 of this
mojoportal/PrototypeWeb/Controls/jQueryFileUpload.cs
A click handler is added to each file in the list, using its index in the array. Once any file has been deleted, this index is incorrect for files below the deleted file.
Could the file name be used instead of the index?
Or could the file list be regenerated with its delete handlers after each deletion?
I should add... we are going to have to fix this anyway in a few days time, so if you cannot suggest the best solution before we get to it, we will post our results in due course.

it should be possible to give users permissions to only create draft pages

Implemented as a separate table to make it easier to plugin new permissions with permission name and allowed roles.

Currently, we add a custom site setting for new permissions but over time it's getting to be more and more of them and a bit unwieldy.

We have found this index dramatically improves performance if user properties are accessed in views:
CREATE NONCLUSTERED INDEX [IX_UserProperties_UserGuid_Propertyname]
ON [dbo].mp_UserProperties
INCLUDE (PropertyValueString)
(potentially relevant to cloudscribe as well?)

there should be a category/tagging sub system so it does not have tobe implemented for each feature

there should be some core CRM subsystem to keep track of contacts and customers

webstore needs product images so markup of images can be determined by skin

Add an option to show a logout success message after logout?

Business Case: Multiple teams have newsletters with different subscribers. The different teams should not be able to send each other's newsletters. With a setting on the newsletter properties specifying who can edit and send that particular newsletter, each team could be responsible for their own newsletters.

When picking a file and the input has a file path in it the File Manager should parse the path and navigate to that file's directory.

Need some way to allow a user to "Check Out" content so others can't make edits at the same time or they're at least made aware someone else could be editing?

There is already a blog post image that is used by the google news feature of the blog. This should work without the google news feature.

extend the initial content system to be able to install specific features in child sites even if there is not configured content that uses the feature

Need a tool to check SMTP settings. Of course, a successful test doesn't mean messages will be reliably delivered but it would be useful to know if the site can at least connect to the SMTP server.

Ideas for making the Content Templates work better.

• Service saves HTML file templates instead of in database (Editing help files already has the functionality)
• Have a legacy templates exporter setting in the web.config/user.config that will check the first time it's run to see if there are custom templates in the database and create HTML templates, then delete the database table
• Service would read directory and list all template files with matching named thumbnail image files
• Templates folder would have web.config file to keep the web server from serving the files
• Add a "Templates Importer/Exporter", which just compresses/uncompresses (zips/unzips) the files
• Use a Data level templates folder and a sites/[site here] templates folder
• Add a template cache file, most likely JSON, so the service won't have to hit the file system every time someone goes to edit content

This leaves things as dynamic and as simple as possible.

Currently, workflow is implemented only for HTML content modules. Would be nice to have workflow for pages. N really sure how it should work but leaning to making it independent of whether there is draft content on the page so that even if the page has no draft content it can still be a draft page.
need to figure out what db fields we need to track submission and approval

The blog is used for all kinds of things, not just blog posts. We've had clients use it for news sites, knowledge bases and bunch of other things.

Having a setting to allow a site owner to prefix blog post URLs with a string of characters would be very helpful. Would be great to allow a path, e.g., "/kb/". Not sure if that will cause problems with other features or not. Folder Based Child Sites might not like it but that's a decision the site owner can make.

For azure and other cloud hosting, it would be useful to be able to do more caching to reduce hits to the database since cost is based on use.

Rather than previous caching of modules UI output, we could cache just the business object, this way rendering can still adapt to if the user has edit permissions, thread culture etc
even users could be cached for 5 minutes or so and we can clear the cache on edits and updates

When mojo creates a new site all folders and files should be copied from the Data/skins folder.

Allow forum moderators to add badges to a users profile. This would help in keeping things like "mojoPortal Expert" uniform and prevent others from adding them.

Currently if you want to add theme.skin settings for mojoPortal modules, you must register the module at the top of the theme.skin file, but if the registration exists and the module is not installed it causes a very unfriendly error.

For instance, if you download a skin that has a special configuration for Form Wizard Pro, it will have Form Wizard Pro registered in the theme.skin like this:

<%@ Register Namespace="sts.FormWizard.Web.UI" Assembly="sts.FormWizard.Web.UI" TagPrefix="stsfw" %>

In this case, your skin will be rejected if you do not have Form Wizard Pro installed. This can be solved easily by simply commenting out this line in the theme.skin, but if you fail to do that it will break all site styling. Ideally this issue would just be logged in the system log, and not prevent the skin from working.

ability to push role changes from parent page down through child pages

by default, it would only change the parent page but a checkbox could indicate to push the roles to child pages.

should we upgrade to latest version?

Email Configuration needs to be updated to include settings for Newsletter and Forum

schedule when a page is published, similar to the blog

There are several web.config settings which apply only to forum. We need to document them.

ForumConfiguration.cs

it would be nice to have a content notes subsystem that could be re-used across features

currently it uses apkiextrakey5 which is not obvious if you are trying to find it in an emergency where the site is redirecting incorrectly.

need to remember to update the document when this is completed
http://www.mojoportal.com/forcing-a-preferred-host-name.aspx

1. Remove the current default content templates that use old markup and jQuery UI.
2. Create clean bootstrap-based content templates for generic content.
3. Include these content templates in the database by default so they are there on new sites, and so they are editable/removable from the site just like all the other templates will be.

similar to content delete handlers but allow initializing things for new content instances

Need a setting in web.config for the id of an account which cannot be deleted and password cannot be changed except by that user. This will help prevent people locking out the demo site.

When using mysql the subscriber stats aren't updated when deleting unverified subscribers.

"... you are not allowed to view this content. If you have questions about your permissions, please contact a site administrator." because redirected back to the recover password page.
Similar issue to https://www.mojoportal.com/Forums/Thread.aspx?pageid=5&t=13063~1
I will do a fix and pull request soon.

Show an alert when deleting a page to ask "are you sure?".

Contextual information and warnings that could be helpful:

1. This page has child pages nested under it.
2. "X" number of other pages link to this page (within the system).

Message Templates are currently editable only through a text editor.

Need to add the ability to edit these files through the administration of the site. The same functionality currently used to edit the help files can work as a first step.

Support APIs for services like SendGrid, ElasticEmail, MailGun.

Probably need an abstraction layer and plugin model to do it right.

though since the site map is dynamic and not static it seems like it should not be needed

Add option to Content Manager to filter by publish mode.

much like the initial content system, a new page wizard would allow the user to choose a page template that defines what features would go on the page and what the initial content of the feature would be.
It would be different than the initial content in that the page name would be provided by the user, url would be suggested based on page name.

need to also make it possible to configure global content from the templates for things like sidebar content shown on all pages.

Some fields are currently populated with options from the main site when creating a new site. These fields should either be blank or there should be a place to set defaults.

Have a field for descriptions on roles. A larger site may contain a lot of roles and site owners can get confused about which ones are setup for what actions. A description field will allow owners and site builders to leave notes about the roles.

You can import & export content style templates currently, we should implement the same feature for content templates.
