We have a customer portal set up.

I would like to replace the login page with a customized login page which I have already created.

When I go to Site Edit

I see:

Login URL https://cs3.salesforce.com/secur/login_portal.jsp?orgId=00DQ0000003Mfxi&portalId=060Q00000000R0t

I would like to replace the login_portal.jsp with my page.

How would  I go about doing that?

Your help would be greatly appreciated,

I have a simple visual force page listing case numbers with some details.

I have spent days searching for a way to let the user resort the columns on the page.

I found many discussions and lots of code attempting to do the same.

My question is:

Why can't I use the existing tools in SF? When in SF looking at cases in queves I can sort ascending and descending on columns.

I saw developers uploading up and down arrows images. Why do we need to do that if those images already exist in Sales Force?

Is there anyway to use the code and the images  that SF uses to resort columns in a visual page using apex?

thanks.

I have an extension with the following:

     caseOpen = [Select Priority,CaseNumber,Accountid,Subject,Contactid,CreatedDate,Ownerid,Status,SuppliedName   
                    from case

Which works fine.

I want to add a field: Owner, and I get the msg: Error: Compile Error: No such column 'Owner' on entity 'Case'.

It is a field in Case. The difference from the other fields is that it has Data Type Lookup(user,Queue)

How do I go about getting the field?

THanks,

Haya

I am developing a customer portal.

I would like the components on the home page be different than on the rest of the pages.

I went to Setup -> Customize -> Home -> Home Page Layouts and selected the components I want.

The problem is that  it changed all the pages

How do I set up the page layout for the other pages to be different?

Thank you in advance,

Haya

I have 2 buttons on a page: Save and Clear.

How do I clear values from the page if the Clear button is clicked?

I want a login page for a customer portal that uses an image for the background.

I tried various approaches.

I first did the following:

• Saved my image in Documents
• Created and html file and saved it in Documents
• Went to Customize > Customer Portal > Settings > Portal Name> Edit > Under the section "Look and Feel", in the Login Message, I  uploaded the html file

The problem I am encountering is that the css/html code for the background image gets striped away on the portal login page. It does show up when I view it inside the portal. I tried posting the code in the html file and in the css file, but it’s gone once it hits the browser.

My html file:

<apex:page>

<apex:stylesheet value="{/Resources.ForteStyles.css}" />

<apex:form id="loginForm" forceSSL="true">

<div style ="background-image: url(https://cs3.salesforce.com/resource/1366889013000/portal_page_bg);

background-repeat:no-repeat; height:500px;padding:120px 80px 80px 80px;" >

<div id="loginBackground">

<h3>Welcome to Forte Customer Portal.</h3>

<form action="" onsubmit="return login()" id="loginform" method="post">

 <p id="notification"></p>

<!-- TEXTBOXES -->

<label>User name</label><br />

<input name="username" type="text" class="text large required" id="username" /><br />

<div class="clearfix">&nbsp;</div>

<label>Password</label><br />

<input name="password" type="password" class="text large required" id="password" /><br />

<div class="clearfix">&nbsp;</div>

<p><input name="btnLogin" type="submit" class="submit" id="btnLogin" value="LOGIN" /></p>

</form>

</div> 

</apex:page>

I also tried defining it in my css file and that wasn't successful either:

#loginBackground ( background-image: url(https://cs3.salesforce.com/resource/1366889013000/portal_page_bg);

background-repeat:no-repeat; height:500px;padding:120px 80px 80px 80px;

}

And in my html file:

<div id="loginBackground">

Any ideas would be welcome.

Thanks,
Haya

In a customer portal I assigned a page as the landing page in Customize Portal Tabs

I assigned the landing page to be the home page in Page Layouts Assignment.

The page consists of a content area and a navigation area (component) .  

When I click on the page’s tab – not the Home tab – I see the whole page.

When I click on the Home tab - only the content area is displayed, not the navigation area.

My page:

 <apex:page docType="html-5.0" showHeader="true" standardStylesheets="false" sidebar="true">
<apex:stylesheet value="{!URLFOR($Resource.ForteStyles)}" />
<head>
</head>

What am I doing wrong?

Thank you,

I have a  page that lists a user's cases

The user can drill down on a case number and get to a page that displays the case details.

I want to add an Add an Attachment section.

I am probably doing some needless looping.  I am missing the connection to the record that I need to add the comment to. The case number should be available to me since this page is the case number's details.

This is the error I am getting:

Visualforce Error

System.DmlException: Insert failed. First exception on row 0; first error: REQUIRED_FIELD_MISSING, Required fields are missing: [Parent]: [Parent]

Class.RequestViewExtension.upload: line 53, column 1

Line 53 is:          insert myAttachment; 

Here is my page:

I am trying to collect fields from the Case database, some for display and one for editing.

The fields for display are: CaseNumber, Accountid, Subject, Description, Contactid, Ownerid, CreatedDate 

The field I want to update is: Comment.

I would like to display prior Comments and give the user the option to add a Comment.

I am successful in collecting the first set of fields but when I add Comment to the list I get:

Error: Compile Error: No   such column 'Comment' on entity 'Case'. If you are attempting to use a custom   field, be sure to append the '__c' after the custom field name. Please   reference your WSDL or the describe call for the appropriate names. at line   14 column 12

I see Comment ilisted n the Case Standard Fields

How do I collect the field?

Here is my code:

public class RequestViewExtension {
    public Case cs;
        ApexPages.StandardController controller;
   
    public RequestViewExtension (ApexPages.StandardController con)
    {
        controller = con;
        this.cs = (Case) con.getRecord();
    }

    public list<Case> case1{get;set;}
    public list<Case> getcases()
    {
     case1=[Select Priority,CaseNumber,Accountid,Subject,Description,Contactid,Ownerid,CreatedDate from case where CaseNumber=:ApexPages.currentPage().getParameters().get('CaseNumber')];  
     return case1;
    }
    
    public String Comment
    {
        get;
        set;
    }
}

I have a vf page that lists records for a specific user.

I want to add an option to update a specific record.

I think  I know how to set the form to update the record.

What I don't know how to set up is the button that would send the user to the next form to edit the record chosen.

This is my code:

<apex:page standardController="Case" extensions="RequestViewExtension" >
<apex:stylesheet value="/resources/ForteStyles.css"/>

When the user chooses Save, I direct the user to a Thank You page, that works fine.

I tried different codes for the Cancel button unsuccessfully. I would like to return the user back to the requestCreate page

I have a few visulaforce pages.

I want to control what shows on the sidebar.

When I have:

<apex:page docType="html-5.0" showHeader="true" standardStylesheets="false" sidebar="true">

The side bar has information.

When I change the code to: sidebar="false"

There is no sidebar.

My question:  How do I determine what shows in the sidebar?

I now have a fewTabs for  visualforce pages on my navigation bar.

The problem is that when I choose a page, that page's Tab does not become the active one.

What do I do to fix that?

Here is a sample page:

<apex:page standardController="Case" extensions="CaseExtension">
<apex:stylesheet value="{/Resources.ForteStyles.css}" />
<style>
.hv{text-align:left;font-size:1.2em; color: #1fbdf2;font-weight:bold;}
</style>
<apex:pageBlock title="My Requests" >
<apex:form >
<apex:dataTable value="{!cases}" var="s" columns="5" cellspacing="15" >
<apex:column headerValue="Request Number" headerClass="hv">
<apex:outputLink value="/apex/Viewed_Request?CaseNumber={!s.CaseNumber}">{! s.CaseNumber}</apex:outputLink>
</apex:column>
<apex:column value="{! s.Subject}" headerValue="Subject" headerClass="hv" />
<apex:column value="{! s.CreatedDate}" headerValue="Date/Time Opened" headerClass="hv" />
<apex:column value="{! s.Ownerid}" headerValue="Request Owner" headerClass="hv" />
</apex:dataTable>
</apex:form>
</apex:pageBlock>
</apex:page>

I need help again. I am still new at this and I don't fully understand Apex.

I wrote a vp for a user to create a new record. Here

I am not getting any errors when editing the page, but when I run it I get the following error:

Is there a way to find and clone salesforce page?

I need to re-create a "create new case" page for a customer portal.

I need to customize the page and drop a few of the fields being asked.

How do I find the code behind the salesforce page so I can use it to create a visualforce page?

We have a customer portal set up.

I would like to replace the login page with a customized login page which I have already created.

When I go to Site Edit

I see:

Login URL https://cs3.salesforce.com/secur/login_portal.jsp?orgId=00DQ0000003Mfxi&portalId=060Q00000000R0t

I would like to replace the login_portal.jsp with my page.

How would  I go about doing that?

Your help would be greatly appreciated,

Haya

Hai , In my vf page code I want to use Standard  Salesforce Styles.  How can I get That. And then I f possible to change to change the standard themes or colors as I Want..Give Some Valuable Ideas.

Thanks

I have an extension with the following:

     caseOpen = [Select Priority,CaseNumber,Accountid,Subject,Contactid,CreatedDate,Ownerid,Status,SuppliedName   
                    from case

Which works fine.

I want to add a field: Owner, and I get the msg: Error: Compile Error: No such column 'Owner' on entity 'Case'.

It is a field in Case. The difference from the other fields is that it has Data Type Lookup(user,Queue)

How do I go about getting the field?

THanks,

Haya

I am developing a customer portal.

I would like the components on the home page be different than on the rest of the pages.

I went to Setup -> Customize -> Home -> Home Page Layouts and selected the components I want.

The problem is that  it changed all the pages

How do I set up the page layout for the other pages to be different?

Thank you in advance,

Haya

Thinking of enabling #Communities for your customer? Then be aware of the current #Gotcha that the default Apex Classes that are created when you enable your first Community do not ALL have code coverage >75%.

What this means:
You can enable Communities in Production, however as soon as you attempt to migrate anything from a sandbox into Production that triggers all tests to be run (doesn't have to be just code), your migration will fail as three of the classes only have 33%, 20% and 21%.

Let me repeat that, you might only be migrating a bunch of new custom fields and page layouts and the Change Set (or Eclipse/ANT) will fail.

I hit this problem this week in a go-live deployment so had to update Apex Classes to achieve average total code coverage >75% in order to proceed with our deployment.

The PM of Communities knows about the problem and advises he is looking at a fix, but in the meantime here are the four Apex Classes that need to be updated.

CommunitiesLandingControllerTest.cls

Just a one liner for this test class

/**
 * An apex page controller that takes the user to the right start page based on credentials or lack thereof
 */
@IsTest public with sharing class CommunitiesLandingControllerTest {
  @IsTest(SeeAllData=true) public static void testCommunitiesLandingController() {
    // Instantiate a new controller with all parameters in the page
    CommunitiesLandingController controller = new CommunitiesLandingController();

    // 25-Jun-2013 Manu Erwin - Fixing insufficient code coverage for default Communities Apex Tests
    PageReference pageRef = controller.forwardToStartPage();
  }
}

CommunitiesLoginControllerTest.cls

Just a one liner for this test class

/**
 * An apex page controller that exposes the site login functionality
 */
@IsTest global with sharing class CommunitiesLoginControllerTest {
  @IsTest(SeeAllData=true) 
  global static void testCommunitiesLoginController () {
    CommunitiesLoginController controller = new CommunitiesLoginController ();

    // 25-Jun-2013 Manu Erwin - Fixing insufficient code coverage for default Communities Apex Tests
    PageReference pageRef = controller.forwardToAuthPage();
  }  
}

CommunitiesSelfRegControllerTest.cls

A few controller variables to set prior to calling the controller method for the original test method, followed by a couple of additional test methods for further coverage.

/**
 * An apex page controller that supports self registration of users in communities that allow self registration
 */
@IsTest public with sharing class CommunitiesSelfRegControllerTest {
  @IsTest(SeeAllData=true) 
  public static void testCommunitiesSelfRegController() {
    CommunitiesSelfRegController controller = new CommunitiesSelfRegController();

    // 25-Jun-2013 Manu Erwin - Fixing insufficient code coverage for default Communities Apex Tests
    controller.firstName = 'Bob';
    controller.lastName = 'Jones';
    controller.email = 'bob@jones.com';
    controller.password = '8yhMsHDN&ituQgO$WO';
    controller.confirmPassword = '8yhMsHDN&ituQgO$WO';
    controller.communityNickname = 'bob-jones-testing';

    PageReference pageRef = controller.registerUser();
  }
  // 25-Jun-2013 Manu Erwin - Fixing insufficient code coverage for default Communities Apex Tests
  @IsTest(SeeAllData=true) 
  public static void testInvalidPassword() {
    CommunitiesSelfRegController controller = new CommunitiesSelfRegController();
    controller.firstName = 'Bob';
    controller.lastName = 'Jones';
    controller.email = 'bob@jones.com';
    controller.password = '8yhMsHDN&ituQgO$WO';
    controller.confirmPassword = 'not the same';
    controller.communityNickname = 'bob-jones-testing';

    PageReference pageRef = controller.registerUser();
    System.assert(pageRef == null, 'The returned page reference should be null');
  }
  // 25-Jun-2013 Manu Erwin - Fixing insufficient code coverage for default Communities Apex Tests
  @IsTest(SeeAllData=true) 
  public static void testNullPassword() {
    CommunitiesSelfRegController controller = new CommunitiesSelfRegController();
    controller.firstName = 'Bob';
    controller.lastName = 'Jones';
    controller.email = 'bob@jones.com';
    controller.communityNickname = 'bob-jones-testing';

    PageReference pageRef = controller.registerUser();
    System.assert(pageRef == null, 'The returned page reference should be null');
  }
}

CommunitiesSelfRegController.cls

A few additions to this class to set the Profile and Account Ids for portal user creation. Update the ProfileId value based on the "portal" license(s) (e.g., Customer Portal, Customer Community, etc) and set the AccountId to that of the Account you wish to use for self-registration. Note: this needs to be set even if you're not using self-registration so the class can be tested.

Plus some debug statements so I could see what was happening and needed to be tested.

/**

  public String firstName {get; set;}
  public String lastName {get; set;}
  public String email {get; set;}

  public CommunitiesSelfRegController() {}
  
  private boolean isValidPassword() {
    return password == confirmPassword;
  }

  public PageReference registerUser() {
  
    // it's okay if password is null - we'll send the user a random password in that case
    if (!isValidPassword()) {
      System.debug(System.LoggingLevel.DEBUG, '## DEBUG: Password is invalid - returning null');
