Q: The Visualforce page I've created for Sites doesn't seem to work correctly with Person Accounts. Internally links are active for that Visualforce page, but as Sites no links are active. This doesn't occur for any other native or custom object.
A: Links to Accounts and Contacts are not generated if your site is linked with a portal. You can generate them yourself by hand, but apex:outputLink will not. If you don't like this behavior, please suggest it as an idea on the Idea Exchange.
But I would like to know if there is a way around this or if there is a way to override this, as we do need links to contacts, accounts, etc. to be displayed on our site. Would creating a custom link work? Thank you!
Hello! I am looking through the forums and can only find questions about using URLFOR and the "new" action on a custom object. But what about using "edit" or "delete"? For example, I would like to do the following:
I am misunderstanding an invalid type error I'm receiving. The most simple example is this:
Set<Account>Agencies = new Set<Account>(); Agencies.addAll([SELECT Account.ID, Account.Name
FROM Contact
WHERE ID = '']);
The error for this assignment would be to the likes of: cannot assign type <List>Contact to type <Set>Account.
Why is the FROM clause object dictating the type of the query? And I need to understand why this does not work because I have other queries that work similarly as this one, and would otherwise require nested subqueries, which are not supported in SOQL.
