Really when I have stuck anywhere in Umbraco dev, Sudden thought comes about Paul Seal youtube channel, and that time I am feeling of peace. Thank you very much for such an amazing work
Thanks Paul, I was kind of frustrated when all these errors were showing up, but I appreciate the fact that you did that on purpose to help us understand things better and troubleshoot issues in future
@@CodeSharePaul Just FYI our org has chosen Sitecore but we are now challenging that because of costs and complexity. Do you think Umbraco can give you most of the functionality offered by Sitecore (if you used extra plugins, I don't mean out of the box)?
Hi Paul, my umbraco install into the CLeanBlog.Web project did not include a App_Plugins folder when I followed your instructions. I tried again through the Nuget Package manager. The UmbracoCms is v8.5.2. Is that normal for this version install please? Thank you
Hi Rachel Have a look in the actual folder on disk to see if it’s there. It might be that you don’t have the option set in Visual Studio to show all files.
@@CodeSharePaul Hi Paul thank you so much for your speedy reply! In the actual folder, I have App_Data, bin, config, Media, obj, Properties, Umbraco, Views. No App_Plugins. Any ideas would be greatly appreciated. (Connected to the DB just fine tho!)
Thank you so much for these great tutorials! I've just finished the first series (v7) and I'm having trouble implementing Nested Content in place of the Archetype (used in the Lesser site, v7). I would greatly appreciate a short post with an example, if not asking too much. Thanks again.
Hi Georgios You’re welcome for the videos. Thank you for the generous coffee by the way. I used nested content for the main carousel in my starter kit. Here is the partial view which renders the carousel. Does this help? github.com/prjseal/CodeShare-Umbraco-Starter-Kit-for-v8/blob/master/src/CSUSK.Web/Views/Partials/Content/_MainCarousel.cshtml
@@CodeSharePaul This is very helpful. I'm following the v8 series now and I see you address Nested Content. Thank you so much again. Your tutorials are a really awesome job!
I got a bit confused about 'checking into source control'. Are you saying we should have had the Git extension installed into Visual Studio before we started? I managed to get to Hello World by following your tutorial, but when I go back in it is no longer published. Are you saying we have to publish something in Visual Studio in addition to publishing a page in Umbraco in order to make changes to a website?
Hi. When I say check in to source control I mean commit the changes you make so you don’t lose anything. Did you used the SQL Compact Edition or full SQL?
Great video ! I just have a little concern : you didn't talk about ISS 8+ installation and i wanted to know how it could be done. I don't no if downloading Visual studio Code plus the extension ISS Express or just Visual Studio. Is Visual Studio integrate ISS 8+ by himself ? Thank you :)
Suppose I wanted to host a umbraco site on some kind of server I have somewhere. Am I able to install it under linux and use it there? Or do I have to buy a license for windows server and set that up before I'm able to use this CMS? I mean... Azure runs on linux servers... EDIT: Apparently this is possible, nevermind my question ;)
@@CodeSharePaul No not bad! But I think upgrading the mic to get the crisp clear sound would benefit the channel. :) Again thank you for your Tutorials, you helped me a lot!
Hi Paul, Thanks so much for this tutorial. I've hit problems though. 1) When trying to connect to the SQL server I encounter the error message: "Cannot connect to DESKTOP........\SQLEXPRESS01. Additional information: A network-related or instance-specific error occurred while establishing a connection to SQL Server. The server was not found or was not accessible. Verify that the instance name is correct and that SQL Server is configured to allow remote connections" and 2) When installing Visual Studio Community 2019 I am unsure as to what 'workload' I should be installing as part of it.
Hi Paul I built my site following elements of your v7 guide to help me, but I was using umbraco 8. This meant I had to do a lot of independent research which is good but I never understood the page model that you show in this video (I had the ipublishcontent error and didn't rebuild models) . I instead use unbraco.assignedcontent item.value("alias") for all of my properties. Is there a "right" way to do it? Should I be using models? I also had to display my content grid with @html.getgridhtml( model, "alias")
Hi Patrick With Umbraco v8, by default Model is the IPublishedContent item, so no need to use assigned content item. Yes the way you are getting g the grid is correct. I’m still on the fence about models builder. I think I prefer to use Model.Value but it’s good to know both ways.
@@CodeSharePaul ok. Thanks for that. Would you recommend me going back and changing my assigned content items to the pages' model system then? Sounds like they're the same but I imagine it'll be phased out eventually.
@@CodeSharePaul Ok might do that. I take it you can't use those models on partial views, and that it's a template only thing? Since partial views are used on multiple pages, so you can't inherit from as it could be a number of pages? I only use RenderActions in my templates and call partial views, so i'm not sure I can even use it.
I would like to start my web site off but using AddData to begin with. What are the steps when installing to do this please. intelisense is so useful why struggle? At least then in your first demo @Model.Title would not have failed. Is it the case of just putting in Appdata instead of PureLive and off we go or is there more to it? What do I need to reference in the Master or other page to spring this into life. Cheers dude.

Why bother with Umbraco? Wordpress sets up everything including DB in 5 min. This looks like hard work. What are the benefits? I can't see any, it just looks like a steep learning curve with no obvious reward apart from being in MS environment. It say's its friendly in its webpage blurb!!!! yeah right! Well presented and I like your presentation style and explanation, just looking at what is out there and Umbraco came up, I don't think I'll be using it anytime soon. Thumbs up to you though, kind regards,
You can install starter kits pretty quickly, and you can also use Umbraco cloud where you don’t have to host it yourself. Maybe that is more useful to you. Thanks for your nice words about my presentation style.
@@CodeSharePaul Thanks for the reply Paul. Yes there is cloud solution for Umbraco, as there is a dumb wordpress.org setup for novices too. What I meant was that when you do a Wordpress install it automatically installs a MySQL database back end automatically, so no messing around installing MS SQL Express or alternative. Watching your vid it seems you have to manually install the DB seperately. As I stated when looking at their website I came away with the idea of "simple/easy", your video does not reflect that. So why would I choose Umbraco over Wordpress? I could install MS SQL Express on my server and then Umbreco and mess around, or I could let Wordpress do it all. From your video I could not find an explanation as to why I would want to go down the Umbreco route apart from being in the MS environment. That was what I was asking. And I commented (which I seldom do) because I really liked your presentation style and explanations as you went along with the setup process. My main interest is the content so i do not want to spend a lot of my time messing around with getting things up and running. You obviously think the product is great, I'm asking why it would be better than Wordpress (which I use because it allows me to focus on content). Kind regards,
How many more management system do we need to have in our portfolio to be attractive on the jobs market? This one is already a standard in some industries. Just keep adding more frameworks, more languages, more plugins, more techniques, more compilers and on top of that 5 years experience in each and every one of them. This developer industry is turning into a joke.
Really when I have stuck anywhere in Umbraco dev, Sudden thought comes about Paul Seal youtube channel, and that time I am feeling of peace. Thank you very much for such an amazing work
Keep coming back to this video, always gets me unstuck on a new project. Thanks Brother!
Thanks Paul, I was kind of frustrated when all these errors were showing up, but I appreciate the fact that you did that on purpose to help us understand things better and troubleshoot issues in future
Yeah it’s important to know how to deal with these errors because they will happen
Thanks for a great tutorial. I appreciate how you left the "errors" in and fixed them. Best way to learn is to make mistakes!
Thanks Rob. Making mistakes is what I do best 😂
Hi Paul. I just recapping my skills i got, a few years back, and this tutorial is great. Thx for you good and hard work. Keep it up! :) Many thx.
That’s great to hear. Thank you
Now I understand how data template, template inheritance and layout works. Thanks
You’re welcome
Many thanks for this series bro, great job! I need to do some research on Umbraco for my job and this is very good!
You’re welcome
Thanks - that was really well explained. Looking forward to watching the rest!
You’re welcome Craig. I’m glad you liked it.
This helped me immensively with the setup, thank you for the series!
You’re welcome mate. We’re not done yet.
Hi Paul, cheers for the tutorial, it's a great series!
You’re welcome mate
Is there something i have done wrong. I followed the steps and i see you mention you have an App_Plugin folder. My install doesnt have that.
Hi Paul! My models aren't showing in my Visual Studio project. On the Models Builder tab it says that Models are out-of-date. How do i fix this?
Hi, great explaining and video but if I am going to only work on the frontend. Is it this complicated with coding etc.?
It can be a big learning curve
Very good indeed. I'm just out to learn a bit about Umbraco and this will help me out no end.
Good to hear. Enjoy
@@CodeSharePaul Just FYI our org has chosen Sitecore but we are now challenging that because of costs and complexity. Do you think Umbraco can give you most of the functionality offered by Sitecore (if you used extra plugins, I don't mean out of the box)?
I’m not familiar with the full capabilities of Sitecore but I do know that more and more enterprise customers are now using Umbraco
@@CodeSharePaul ok thanks. By the way, what software did you use to create this video that helped you to overlay you on the display?
It’s called OBS. And I used a Chroma Filter setting on the webcam input. I’ve got a green screen behind me.

i can not found db_server ?!
How about creating a clean starter kit API version?

Good luck 👍🏻

is the folder with model builder removed I do not get that
Hi what modelsbuilder mode are you using?
@08:00 you seem to prefer the command line to install your packages -- is there a particular reason for this choice ?
I don’t like the message pop ups that you have to accept when using the UI
