From the Salesforce Help doc: "Users with the Authenticated Website User license have read-only access to documents, ideas and questions, as well as full access to custom objects."

 

Is this an exclusive list? - I am reading it that authenticated website users cannot access contacts, am I correct?

When I followed these directions, I got errors.   
npm -g install cordova

Installs the latest version of cordova which is doesn't work with SFDC.   

Cordova 4.0 platform has a slew of underlying architecture changes that make it incompatible with the existing Mobile SDK out of the box. Classes have been renamed and moved around. Also, Cordova 4.0 requires the usage of their whitelist plugin for any network requests.
In short, the current version of Mobile SDK won't work with Cordova 4.0. Any 3.x version of Cordova should work fine.



 

WIth force.com we have to customer portal.  I am curious if you can use customer portal and make a mobile version of the pages to display on a mobile device such as an iphone.   This way our site is running all on force.com.   The only other solution is to create another website and use the rest api's.   

 

Thoughts?   

 

 

I went to buy some more Authenticated user licenses from salesforce.com today for customer portal.  The pricing went up 10x from March of 2010.   I tried to get our sales rep to go back and make sure this is right, however she refused.    

 

 

Is it possible to make a mobile version of a website using sites, then have them authinicate into the customer portal and provide a mobile experience is the customer portal?    

 

 

Is there a difference between these two licenses?   

 

Thank you!  

I put in a request to have site force enabled in our Winter 12 sandbox as per the winter 12 doc.   Tech support said we needed site force licenses despite being on Unlimited and put me in touch with our salesrep.   

 

Our sales rep is saying they don't have pricing and we have to wait till WInter 12 goes live in mid October.   

 

What is the point of making it available in winter 12 sandbox if I am not able to play around with it?   I want to use it.

 

Thanks

Where can I find some sample sites that we can download with code to use as a start for a new site?

Does anyone know what would be the best way to go as develop a page for a customer portal. Wheather to go with Sites.com or Force.com sites or Customer portal. I want to develop a client page in which allows the client to access a limited amount of information for example their client name, job orders etc.

I want to allow users access my site with linked in.

I already have Facebook as Auth. Provider, but when I try to create a new Auth. Provider I only get FB, SF and Jainrain.

 

How do I get to enable linkedin login?

From the Salesforce Help doc: "Users with the Authenticated Website User license have read-only access to documents, ideas and questions, as well as full access to custom objects."

 

Is this an exclusive list? - I am reading it that authenticated website users cannot access contacts, am I correct?

 

Hi,

We are very excited to see APEX REST going GA in the Winter '12 release.

Special thanks to all developers that took the time to use the new feature and provide valuable feedback to our team. We really appreciate your participation in the pilot. Also we look forward to future collaboration. Thank you!

As you know, Apex REST API was previously available as a pilot in Summer'11. As a pilot release, we gather feedback and make adjustments prior to final GA releases. Below is an update we made in APEX REST prior to GA - please review it:

* Cookie support has been removed from RestRequest and RestResponse. The addCookie method and cookies property have been removed from both of these classes, and use of the following headers in the addHeader method isn't allowed: "cookie", "set-cookie", "set-cookie2", "content-length" and "authorization". Our security team felt this led to a more secure design overall.

If you participated in the Summer '11 pilot release please review your implementation to account for this update.

For more information about Apex REST, see the Force.com Apex Code Developer's Guide.

Thank you,

API Team


I put in a request to have site force enabled in our Winter 12 sandbox as per the winter 12 doc.   Tech support said we needed site force licenses despite being on Unlimited and put me in touch with our salesrep.   

 

Our sales rep is saying they don't have pricing and we have to wait till WInter 12 goes live in mid October.   

 

What is the point of making it available in winter 12 sandbox if I am not able to play around with it?   I want to use it.

Hi,

I'm using Siteforce in a Winter'12 prerelease Dev org. I have noticed that the CSS property "content" is not supported. This property is used in combination with the pseudo-selectors :before and :after.

This a standard property, available since CSS2 (almost ten years ago!) and therefore accepted by W3C. It should be supported by Siteforce, in order to fulfill the standards.

Regards.

Is there a document that exists that explains the different types of licenses that can be used with Sites for authentication?  

 

What are the limits of the new Authenticated Sites user?   Can you access standard objects?   

 

Thank you,

 

Jeremy

Where can I find some sample sites that we can download with code to use as a start for a new site?

We are looking to create a mobile version of our site.  Will we have to create two separate versions of the site (one for desktop and one for mobile) or is there a tool that will transform a normal webpage into a mobile version?

 

 

Maybe some CSS?

 

 

Thanks for any response.

 

Adam
