Classifieds Starter Kit

Add "Confirm Email" to the registration page.

racer184 — Thu, 26 Nov 2009 18:25:05 GMT

I needed to add a step to "confirm email" address on the registration page. Quite a few people type their email address wrong and never check it. Then they wonder why they don't get any replies to their ad on my classifieds site. (One man got 27 "respond to ad" in one day and said my site sucked.... well... he put in the wrong email address!)

The only form affected is register.aspx . After the text box for "email" add this.

Confirm Email:
 <asp:TextBox runat="server" ID="ConfirmEmail" CssClass="user_info" 
ToolTip="Enter your email again, please.  This is to be sure you have not mistyped it."></asp:TextBox>
                                                 <br />
                                       
<asp:RequiredFieldValidator ID="ConfirmEmailValidator" runat="server" 
ControlToValidate="ConfirmEmail" 
ErrorMessage="Email and Confirm Email must match" 
ToolTip="Confirm Email address" ValidationGroup="CreateUserWizardControl"></asp:RequiredFieldValidator>
                                       
                                    <br />

Then, lower down the page look for "CompareValidator" that is for checking the password. I entered this to compare the email and confirm email textbox es.

 <asp:CompareValidator runat="server" ControlToValidate="ConfirmEmail" ValidationGroup="CreateUserWizardControl"
 ID="EmailCompare" Display="Dynamic" ErrorMessage="The email and confirm email must match."
ControlToCompare="Email">
                                    </asp:CompareValidator>

It sure looks like a simple thing to do. But it did take me a while to learn that I was using the wrong kind of validator.

advanced search url path?

redwoodbev — Wed, 18 Nov 2009 08:06:27 GMT

Hi, I would like to make a text hyperlink that would bring up ads in a category and location. Can anyone tell where to find the url path for that? I've been able to do it with category only by using mysite.com/ShowAd.aspx?c=XXX. Is there something like ?c=XXX which represents the location part of the path? Thanks for any advice of where to look for this. Bev

Its time to move classifieds to Asp.Net MVC

paggy4u — Thu, 08 Oct 2009 05:51:06 GMT

Hi,

I think, we had enough of progress on Classified starter Kit based on Web Forms.

Its time to move ahead with the future and that would be to convert the classified starter kit to Asp.Net MVC Classified Starter Kit. It would be much easier to maintain and extends with Controller. I mean C from MVC

Act Right now, before its late and the charm is lost.

cant post ads after changing authentication type to windows

evvo — Mon, 16 Nov 2009 12:54:55 GMT

I have switched the provider from the aspnetprovider to windows as this will run within a local area network and staff will access it via their existing network logins.

However after changing this via the site configuration wizard I can no longer post ads.

The INSERT statement conflicted with the FOREIGN KEY constraint "FK_Ads_Members". The conflict occurred in database "Classifieds", table "dbo.Members", column 'Id'.

Presumably there is no member id allocated now as registration is no longer required but how do I cater for this in the code?

Dynamic Meta Description on ShowAd Page?

redwoodbev — Fri, 13 Nov 2009 07:39:02 GMT

I'm trying to make the description for ads change dynamically so every ad will have a unique description. I've been pouring through the web and various blogs and forums and still can't figure this out. I've tried several methods with no luck. Here's my latest...

ShowAd.aspx

<%@ Page Language="VB" MasterPageFile="~/AirportMaster.master" CodeFile="ShowAd.aspx.vb"
Inherits="ShowAd_aspx" Title=" " Description=" "%>
<asp:Content ID="myTag" ContentPlaceHolderID="head1" runat="Server" >
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1" />

ShowAd.vb

metaDescription.Name =

Dim metaDescription As New HtmlMeta()"description"

metaDescription.Content = "Ad.Title"

Page.Header.Controls.Add(metaDescription)

It compiles ok, but doesn't work. I'm sure I'm missing something basic, but just can't figure it out. Has anyone done this already with the classified kit? I'd really appreciate a hint in the right direction. Thanks

ObjectDataSource AdDataSource Could not find a nongeneric method error

redwoodbev — Sun, 01 Nov 2009 04:58:19 GMT

Hi, I'm getting the following error when trying to edit an existing ad. "ObjectDataSource 'AdDataSource' could not find a non-generic method 'UpdateAd' that has parameters: original_Id, memberId, Title, Description, URL, Price, Location, isRelisting."

Has anyone seen this, or have any idea where I should look for the problem? Thanks.

y71chen — Wed, 26 Apr 2006 22:33:47 GMT

Hi

I opened the default.aspx in the vs2005 but i got two errors saying:
Type "ProfileCommon" is not defined.
on line:
<%@ Page Language="VB" MasterPageFile="~/MasterPage.master" CodeFile="Default.aspx.vb"
    Inherits="Default_aspx" Title="Welcome" %>

and also i got errors:
Error    3    Element 'FeaturedAd' is not a known element. This can occur if there is a compilation error in the Web site.    C:\Inetpub\newwwwroot\ad\Default.aspx    36    18    http://ad/
Error    4    Element 'CategoryBrowse' is not a known element. This can occur if there is a compilation error in the Web site.    C:\Inetpub\newwwwroot\ad\Default.aspx    48    22    http://ad/
on lines:
<%@ Register TagPrefix="uc1" TagName="FeaturedAd" Src="Controls/FeaturedAd.ascx" %>
<%@ Register TagPrefix="uc1" TagName="CategoryBrowse" Src="Controls/CategoryBrowse.ascx" %>
What can i do to correct these? i found a post talking about this ProfileCommon problem:
http://forums.asp.net/1141608/ShowPost.aspx
but i dont really know what they are talking about, because i am not trying to do any of those things, so can anyone please tell me how i can fix this problem?

Thanks in advance!

paggy4u — Sat, 22 Apr 2006 04:06:43 GMT

PLEASE POST ALL THE BUGS HERE ONLY.

Hello,

I have noticed few bugs and few other members have also informed few bugs in the classified starter Kit.

Rather than each member posting same bugs again and again in different threads, getting them spreaded with less details and information, i welcome all members to post the bugs here founded in starterkit. This will prevent duplication of bugs as well as a single thread to be noticed/rectified by the developers of starterkit.

Please support and post the bugs founded in this thread only.

Thanks

Relisting an ad displays the 'price' to 4 decimal places?

flostin — Mon, 26 Oct 2009 21:11:44 GMT

I notice that when I try to relist an 'inactive ad', from within the myads section, the 'postad.aspx?relistxx' page is diplayed with the original price but, to 4 decimal places and i would like only 2 decimal places. Does anyone know how to change this? I am using the final version of classifieds.

Thanks

Problems with Advanced Search

rfurdzik — Tue, 10 Jul 2007 04:35:26 GMT

I have extended Advanced Search with the following: Country, City, State.

When I click search, GetAllAdsByQuery is executed fine, however after that a second postback is generated and GetAllAdsByQuery is executed with empty parameters...

Any idea why this second postback to advanced search occurs? Why GetAllAdsByQuery is called twice?

Why 2 databases

thedee — Thu, 15 Oct 2009 15:59:46 GMT

With the Classified starter kit, why is there 2 databases? One for the classified info and another for the Profile/Member info. In the classifieds database there is also a members table. Couldn't you eliminate this Members table if you just combine the two databases into one?

I just not sure why the two databases instead of one db.

EditAds not working compile error

redwoodbev — Wed, 14 Oct 2009 17:09:33 GMT

Hi, I'm suddenly getting this error on EditAds.aspx.vb From what I see in other forums I thought I might have declared something twice, but my EditAd.aspx.vb code matches the original for the kit, so I'm stumped. Has anyone else come across this sort of error and maybe could point me in the right direction? Thanks, Bev

Hooking an Image Button into the ValidateUserFormInformation Event

drdexter33 — Thu, 28 Aug 2008 01:47:42 GMT

This event is hooked into the Submit Button

private void ValidateUserFormInformation(object sender, CreateUserErrorEventArgs e)

{}

Say I add a control like this to the markup:

<input type="image"

src="https://www.paypal.com/en_US/i/btn/btn_subscribeCC_LG.gif"

border="0" name="submit" id="submit"

alt="PayPal - The safer, easier way to pay online!"

runat="server" onclick="btnSubmit"

onserverclick="submit_ServerClick"/>

How can I hook this button into the ValidateUserFormInformation event and validate the form?

Thanks!

Doug
