Hello,

What are the maximum number of fields that can be added to a mini page layout? 
 

Hi

we are new to the saleforce and we are trying to  integrate our web application to salesforce.And we are decided to use soap Api and trying generate the WSDL but we are unable to find the generate WSDL in  Setup--->Develop---->Api.
                       And we came to know that we are unable generate wsdl in trial version but some are suggested to create developer.salesforce 
and we are confused about how to generate wsdl in developer.salesforce site. so kindly please let us know how to generate the wsdl. if it is to generate wsdl in developer.salesforce site.let us know how can we generate wsdl. 

regards,
vinod
                      

Our custom object is the Bidding element of the Opportunity (which we call Bid__c) and is a related list against the standard opportunity object. On the Opportunity we have created a Lookup Relationship to the bid object, which needs to be auto popluated with the related bid number. We have in past used Workflow/Field Update to acheive this type of scenairo but obviously this doesnt work for Lookup Relationships. 

We have attempted to write our first trigger, we've got the stage that no error's are found but the trigger itself doesn't work. Code below:

trigger UpdateLookup on Opportunity (after insert, before update) 
{
    //instantiate set to hold unique Bid record ids
    Set<Id> BidIds = new Set<Id>();
    for(Opportunity s : Trigger.new)
    {
        BidIds.add(s.Bid_Name__c);
    }

    //instantiate map to hold deployment record Opportunity ids to their corresponding Bid Name
    Map<Id, Bid__c> BidIdsMap = new Map<Id, Bid__c>([SELECT Id, Name FROM Bid__c WHERE Id IN: BidIds]);

    for (Opportunity s : Trigger.new) 
    {
        if (s.Name == null && BidIdsMap.containsKey(s.Bid_Name__c)) 
        {
            s.Name = BidIdsMap.get(s.Bid_Name__c).Name;
        }
    }
}

We've kind of hit a brick wall and would really appreciate any support or guidance?

Opportunity Lookup Field - Bid_Name__c
Custom Object - Bid__c
Related field that we required to populate the lookup - Name (standard field)

Is there a certification for DEV502 or only training?

If Yes, what is the pre-requisite for DEV502? and how do we register for that ?

Hi,
I currently have a few s-control pages actions on page1 will effect page2, page3, etc. Each s-control page contains form fields (textbox, checkbox, radio buttons, picklist, etc) that are populated by users and some pages rely on answers from other s-control fields. For example "page3.Form.Status" field is set based on how users answer "page2.Form.ApprovalNeeded" field. Additionally, when the form fields are populated, they are populated into a custom object Obj1__c. We have chosen not to do a visualforce page and rely on the s-control pages.

In a regular desktop browser on s-control page4, an Approval/Decline buttons show if the "page3.Form.Status" is set to "Awaiting Approval". The approval/decline are designed to set a custom field on the custom object Obj1__c through the UI. However, the approval/decline buttons do not show up on the Salesforce1 app and the mobile site of Salesforce. 

Are there any recommendations to get the approval/decline to show on the mobile friendly Salesforce site or Salesforce1 app? 

Hi,

Does any one know how to create a link for a field like the [Change] for the record type or the [display hierarchy] for the account ??

Thank for the help

In trying to complete a module I was told to create a domain - which I did. Now, when I login to trailhead (using the same user name) I am directed to my domain-named org - not the original org that was associated with my trailhead playground. Every challenge since them has failed because the challenge "failed to find" the desired setup, even though the app or change was made in my org.
For example, in the module "Assessing the Quality of the data" I am asked to install the Data.com Assessment app into my org (brave-goat-427591-dev-ed--th-con-app...), but during the process, when I am asked to select my username, the install process redirects to the domain-name org, and consequently my challenges all fail...
How do I disconnect my username from the domain-named org, so that when I do an install into my "brave-goat..." org, the app is installed into the correct org?
The modules are extremely frustrating, when it comes to installing apps (needs to be run in an Incognito environment?)
 

Can anyone help?  The instructions on that website no longer follow Salesforce in real life. When I try to add a user column, per the SF instructions I get an error message.  Please help.

Team, 

Am trying to use the google gauge functionality to bring in a guage chart on an account. I it to show the percent compelete of a record. I am using this link as a reference. http://salesforceselflearn.blogspot.in/

For some reason the visualforce page component is not showing up in the page layout of the Account. I have created the class and the visualforce page in our sandbox. Below is the code. 

Class
 

public class googleChartController {

    Public String acctId {get; set;}
    Public String query {get;set;}
    Private Decimal TotalFieldCount {get;set;}
    Private Decimal FilledFieldCount {get;set;}
    Public Decimal TotalPercentage {get;set;}
    
    Public GoogleChartController(ApexPages.StandardController controller){
        acctId = controller.getRecord().id;
        fetch();
    }
    
    public void fetch() {
        String SObjectApiName = 'Account';
        Map<String, Schema.SObjectType> objectMap = Schema.getGlobalDescribe();
        Map<String, Schema.SObjectField> fieldMap = objectMap.get(SObjectApiName).getDescribe().fields.getMap();
        
        String fieldString = '';
        for (String fieldName : fieldMap.keyset())
        {
            if(fieldString == '')
            {
                fieldString = FieldName; 
                } else{
                    fieldString = FieldString + ',' + fieldName;
                }
            }
        query = 'Select' + fieldString + 'from' + SObjectApiName + 'WHERE id = :accID' ;
        Account accountRecord = Database.query(query);
        TotalFieldCount = 0;
        FilledFieldCount = 0;
        for (String fieldName : fieldMap.keyset())
        {
            TotalFieldCount++;
            if(accountRecord.get(fieldName) != null || string.isBlank(fieldName))
            {
                FilledFieldCount++;
            }
        }
        TotalPercentage = (FilledFieldCount/TotalFieldCount) * 100;
        TotalPercentage = TotalPercentage.setScale(0);
        }
}

Visualforce Page

           function drawChart() {
                var totalFields = {TotalPercentage};
                var data= google.visualization.arrayToDataTable([
                    ['Label', 'Value'],
                    [' % ', totalFields],
                    ]);

I am currently taking a trailhead course which requires developer edition.So,I created one with,but I am not able to login to my devleloper edition.I am using the credentials which I set during signup.Am I missing something?

Per the docs, "Visualforce mapping components aren’t available in Developer Edition organizations". This is unfortunate if you're trying to develop a package in a dev org. Is there a way to create a Visualforce Map in a Dev Org that when deployed to an EE org, it will display?

I am getting below error while doing trail head
Step not yet complete... here's what's wrong: 
There was an unexpected error in your org which is preventing this assessment check from completing: System.EmailException: SendEmail failed. First exception on row 0; first error: REQUIRED_FIELD_MISSING, Either the plain text body or html body must be supplied.: [] 
Note: you may run into errors if you've skipped previous steps.

Today we’re excited to announce the new Salesforce Developers Discussion Forums. We’ve listened to your feedback on how we can improve the forums.  With Chatter Answers, built on the Salesforce1 Platform, we were able to implement an entirely new experience, integrated with the rest of the Salesforce Developers site.  By the way, it’s also mobile-friendly.

We’ve migrated all the existing data, including user accounts. You can use the same Salesforce account you’ve always used to login right away.  You’ll also have a great new user profile page that will highlight your community activity.  Kudos have been replaced by “liking” a post instead and you’ll now be able to filter solved vs unsolved posts.

This is, of course, only the beginning — and because it’s built on the Salesforce1 Platform, we’re going to be able to bring you more features faster than ever before.  Be sure to share any feedback, ideas, or questions you have on this forum post.

Hats off to our development team who has been working tirelessly over the past few months to bring this new experience to our community. And thanks to each of you for helping to build one of the most vibrant and collaborative developer communities ever.
 

As Bulent points out, we had record numbers attending our Force.com Sites webinar last week, during which we announced the Force.com Sites Developer Challenge.

The challenge page has all the details, but in short the rules are pretty simple: "You can use any or all parts of the Force.com platform, as long as you use Force.com Sites, and you can submit as many applications as you like." And you have a month to do it in - submissions close on January 9 January 30.

That's it! Create anything, as long as you use Force.com Sites. And Sites enables an entirely new breed of applications, so I'm really looking forward to seeing what you folk submit. If you're new to Sites and Visualforce, we have a couple of challenges that you can use to get you started. See the Developer Challenge Guide for details.

Oh, we'll be handing out a number of prizes too! Developer Challenge t-shirts, iPod Nanos, iPod Touches and more!

Here are some handy resources:

• The Force.com Sites home page
• The Developer Challenge home page
• An Introduction to Visualforce - the user interface technology underlying Sites
• Our documentation page, which points to a number of useful books

Happy coding!
Jon
