  • Creating ScrewTurn Wiki Namespaces In Sueetie v2.3

    Sueetie has always supported ScrewTurn Wiki 3.x's Multiple Namespace architecture.  It’s a very cool, very powerful feature.  A sticking point, however, was that ScrewTurn Namespaces other than the root broke the page layout.  Specifically, the page elements created by ScrewTurn to support the namespace didn’t conform to the custom styling of the page elements used by the root namespace.  This happens whenever the root page element files are customized in a ScrewTurn Wiki...
  • ScrewTurn Wiki 3.0.4 Enhancements on Display at Sueetie.com

    The latest and greatest version of ScrewTurn Wiki, v3.0.4.560, is now on display at Sueetie.com/wiki. It has all of the Sueetie Framework enhancements as before like tagging and event calendar scheduling, plus two new enhancements coming in v2.3, integrated Page Discussions and support for multiple Namespaces. Page Discussion Integration Before continuing I should probably show you a ScrewTurn Page Discussion.  Here’s the discussion on the Sueetie ChangeLog page.   (Here’s a direct link...
  • Tags Everywhere! Sueetie Wiki Page Tagging Now Online

    Sueetie Wiki Pages now support tagging and are fully integrated in Sueetie's Global Tagging Architecture and Sueetie Search.  Wiki Page Tagging is another example of how the Sueetie Framework adds functionality to an application not available out-of-the-box. This was the case with Gallery Server Pro Tagging and is now the case with ScrewTurn Wiki. ScrewTurn is the best .NET-based Wiki available anywhere, but it does not have a tagging feature. That said, I need to point out that ScrewTurn...
  • Finally Gave my Sueetie Wiki Some Good Luvin’

    I’m thankful for a lot of things that resulted from creating Sueetie. One of the things I’m thankful for is the opportunity to build a library of documents and “think wiki.” Having the opportunity to gain a proficiency with ScrewTurn Wiki in the process has been a double bonus. The Sueetie Wiki currently has 88 documents I wrote over the last year and a half, mostly technical documents with screenshots and code excerpts describing the intimacies of the Sueetie Community Framework. One thing I’ve...
  • Sueetie Going Mobile Series: ScrewTurn Wiki

    This is the fifth and final Sueetie Going Mobile Series post and the fourth on a Sueetie Application. We covered BlogEngine.NET, Gallery Server Pro, YetAnotherForum.NET, and will close out the series here on the world’s first mobile version of ScrewTurn Wiki. The Sueetie Wiki document on which this post was based is located in the Sueetie Patterns and Origins area. _______________ ScrewTurn Wiki Mobile: a bit of CSS and Theme Selection Modification The mobilization of ScrewTurn was perhaps the most...
  • More on Custom Page Styling in ScrewTurn Wiki

    In our last episode we walked through the process of creating Namespaces in ScrewTurn Wiki, selected a theme and as a bonus, demonstrated how to fine-tune page elements to duplicate the page styles across all ScrewTurn namespaces. Today we're going to replace the fine-tuning edit process of ScrewTurn /wiki/public/*.cs content files with the Content Editing feature already built-in to ScrewTurn Wiki. This post is yet another demonstration of why blogging is important to get things right. As has...
  • Duplicating Custom Page Styling in ScrewTurn Wiki Namespaces

    One of the great features in ScrewTurn Wiki is namespaces, distinct wiki areas supporting namespace-specific permissions and administration, theming, page layouts and more.  ScrewTurn Wiki namespaces are fully supported with Sueetie, but the Sueetie Activity Log wasn't correctly recording non-root wiki page permalinks. A small bug to be sure, but the fix gave me the chance to work with ScrewTurn Wiki Namespaces. Creating a ScrewTurn Namespace is a snap.  I was into my new namespace...
  • Sueetie.com Now Serving Up ScrewTurn Wiki 3.0.2!

    Happiness doubles-up, first with the upgrade of Sueetie.com to BlogEngine.NET 1.6 earlier this week and now ScrewTurn Wiki 3.0.2.  The latest version of ScrewTurn Wiki just feels good, and it seems wicked fast to me. It is fully integrated into the Sueetie Framework, of course, with all new pages and updates recorded in Sueetie Data Core and captured in the Site Activity log. With no further adieu, here is a beautiful new footer tag to share with you tonight. Read More...
  • DBVT.COM Services Area now powered by ScrewTurn Wiki

    One of my goals for 2010 was to convert my DBVT.COM Services page to a wiki where I would have the freedom to update and change my message more easily.  Here’s what the Services page looked like. One long static message that’s over a year old. Below is the new wiki-based Services page.  It’s hard to see at the reduced size (though you can also go to the real thing ), but I’m breaking up my marketing copy to highlight particular services for more bite-sized messages to help perspective clients...
  • A More Scalable ScrewTurn Wiki Membership Model

    I was scratching a scalability itch wondering how ScrewTurn Wiki configured for file-based user storage would perform in a community of 100,000 users. The result was a new approach to Sueetie-ScrewTurn Wiki Membership as described in the new Sueetie Wiki Document republished for you below. Having worked with ScrewTurn for over a year, I’m confident it could handle 100,000 users with its default file storage provider, but like I said, this was an itch I wanted to scratch, nothing more.  Before...
  • Wiki Documents now Accessible Sueetie Site-Wide

    Wiki documents are now accessible from anywhere in a Sueetie Community Site. Wiki documents joins blog posts, blog comments, media, forum topics and forum messages as having their own List View Controls in Sueetie. Sueetie wiki document sharing is part of the event logging features coming in Gummy Bear 1.2. Besides Wiki Document access, wiki event messages like "Dave Burke updated the wiki document [insert some cool Sueetie document here]" and so on. Event messages from other application...
  • Improve Your SEO Ratings with ScrewTurn Wiki

    I've had SEO on the brain recently and began taking a few overdue steps to compensate for a lack of attention in my web world. This third of three new Sueetie Feature Rich articles focuses on the excellent SEO capabilities of ScrewTurn Wiki. The original wiki document is located here. _______________ Sitemaps, Titles, Keywords and Content Description Metadata Four essential capabilities in any web application to ensure quality SEO page ranking are sitemaps, descriptive page titles, keywords and...
  • Superior Page Navigation with ScrewTurn Wiki Breadcrumbs

    A new Sueetie Feature Rich article is below. It is the second of three articles I added yesterday. The title is Enhanced ScrewTurn Wiki Breadcrumbs for Better Page Navigation demonstrating how ScrewTurn Wiki breadcrumbs display every document linked-to from that page in a mouse-over popup. I am totally hooked on it. ______________ A Better Breadcrumb The first time I saw ScrewTurn Wiki's enhanced breadcrumbs in version 3 I was dazzled by how completely efficient it made navigating through a wiki...
  • One-Click Page Creation with ScrewTurn Wiki

    The Sueetie Wiki has a much-neglected page called Feature Rich: The Applications that Comprise Sueetie. Its intent is to showcase the great features in BlogEngine.NET, YetAnotherForum.NET, Gallery Server Pro and ScrewTurn Wiki. I think the world of each of these apps and the developers behind them and look forward to the day when Feature Rich has hundreds of showcase articles on it. The fun is in getting there, so we won’t let the fact that there are currently only 10 Feature Rich articles bother...
  • Sueetie Now Serving Up ScrewTurn Wiki Sitemaps

    When ScrewTurn Wiki author Dario Solera tweeted that ScrewTurn now supported sitemaps, I was super excited. I couldn’t find it in my ScrewTurn 3.0.1.4 Sueetie bits, so I asked about it on ScrewTurn forums and was told by Dario that it was in the nightly build ZIPs. So I pulled down the latest source ZIP and extracted sitemap.aspx and the code-behinds, recompiled, and we’re cooking with sitemaps! Below is a screenshot, or you can see the real thing at http://sueetie.com/wiki/sitemap.aspx . I entered...
  • Post-Turkey Day Geek Drippings

    The day after Turkey Day, or Fatpants Friday, is a good day to relax and do some light geeking. My Post-Turkey Day geeking included BlogEngine.NET fix on dbvt.com Restored my Sueetie development baseline to YAF 1.9.3 Sueetie Control Panel Membership updates BlogEngine.NET fix on dbvt.com Two days ago the Iranian Stallion, Keyvan Nayyeri, informed me that my blog comment notifications weren’t working. I can’t relax when I know something’s broken, so it was at the top of the Post-Turkey Day to-do list...
  • A Lovely Wiki

    I took some time over the weekend to spruce up my newly updated ScrewTurn Wiki 3.0.1.4 at Sueetie.com.   I've been planning on adding a good bit of new content now that Gummy Bear is alive and I wanted something pretty to look at.  Ask any of my clients and they'll tell you that before I do any serious coding I first need some pretty to look at.  Those are the rules. I also wanted more document real estate, so the first thing I did was get rid of the sidebar and move the navigation...
  • Sueetie now running ScrewTurn Wiki 3.0.1.4

    I spent a couple of hours this morning upgrading my development environment and Sueetie.com to the latest version of Screwturn Wiki, v3.0.1.4.  I've upgraded ScrewTurn several times, along with Gallery Server Pro, BlogEngine.NET and YetAnotherForum.NET.  I honestly enjoy going through the process.  With each upgrade I feel I know the application better, which was a main driver for Sueetie in the first place. ScrewTurn 3.0.0.3333 to 3.0.1.4 was a minor upgrade, but any upgrade in...
  • Sueetie now running ScrewTurn Wiki 3.0 RC1

    I've been looking forward to using ScrewTurn Wiki 3.0 in Sueetie for a long time, so when 3.0 RC1 become available I waited about a day before moving the Sueetie Wiki to 3.0 RC1 from 2.0.35.  ScrewTurn Wiki 3.0 is a substantially improved Wiki.  Here are just two of several new ScrewTurn 3.0 features for you.  In red is the linked pages popup navigation menu, where all linked page are displayed with the breadcrumb links.  In blue is a taste of ScrewTurn 3.0 namespaces. ...
  • New and Improved Wiki User Account Creation Now Available

    This is a repost from Dave Burke’s blog.  The original post is located here. I spent some quality time this past weekend improving how accounts are created in ScrewTurn Wiki when a new user registers in Sueetie.   I originally redirected from the Sueetie Registration page to an autologin.aspx page that I created in ScrewTurn to create a Wiki account on ScrewTurn’s own turf.  That worked fine and allowed me to get Sueetie on the street more quickly, but it was clumsy and I was never...

  • Sueetie: New and Improved Wiki User Account Creation

    I spent some quality time this past weekend improving how accounts are created in ScrewTurn Wiki when a new user registers in Sueetie. I originally redirected from the Sueetie Registration page to an autologin.aspx page that I created in ScrewTurn to create a Wiki account on ScrewTurn’s own turf. That worked fine and allowed me to get Sueetie on the street more quickly, but it was clumsy and I was never happy with it. A bit of elegance has now surfaced to replace the redirection logic in the form...
