Hey there,
I’ve got a relatively small CMS project (2 websites of less than 12 pages each) that needs a developer. Each site has only two design templates (home and interior), so the coding should go rather quickly. My team can provide HTML prototypes. Typically, we’d do this sort of thing in-house, but I’m looking to expand our contractor base and you seem to know your stuff with Umbraco. Interested?

Hi Tim!
I’d love to try out your AJAX Poll package for Umbraco, but I can’t find a link to download it?
Regards,
Thomas K
Hey Thomas,
I’ll digg up the package( source) and post it later today.
Kindly,
Tim
Package is available for download
Thanks a million!
AJAX Poll is fine for my needs - simple yet very flexible. The screencasts explained everything I needed to know to implement it.
Hey Tim -
I was looking into your polling package, but I don’t see any templates so when I create a new “Poll Container” I don’t see anything on the published page. I don’t see any bodyText content or properties (other than “votes”) to be able to build a template for it.
This newbie is definately missing something here. Help me out?
Also, where are these “screencasts” that Thomas references in his May 12th post? Maybe that’s all I need.
Hi Tim,
The AJAX Poll works great. Just wondering if you could please send me the source code so we can change a few things.
Cheers,
Neil
@JHildeman, I’ll see if I can digg them up
@Neil, you’ve got mail
Hi Tim,
Nice work!! Respect!
I will ask same question as Neil few lines above: “Just wondering if you could please send me the source code so we can change a few things.”
Thanx in advance!!
Greetings,
Mitch
@mitch, you’ve got mail
Thanx again Tim!
Hi Tim!
True component!
Could you share sources with me as well, please.
Thank you. :).
Hi Tim!

Hi Terje,
The donwload link is on this page
I would like to see the source code as well.
for the ajax poll package.
Hi Tim
I am interested in using the poll you created, however I would like to customise it. I would be highly appreciative if you could send me the source code.
Regards
Luke Green
Hi Tim,
Is the source still available for your Polls package? I would be interested in it if so to try and customise it for a site I am currently working on.
Thanks for all the great work on Umbraco.
Simon
Hi Tim,
I also would like to examine the source for the poll you created. I have a need for such an item and am trying to understand how to ‘extend’ umbraco by using an existing ‘extension’.
Could you please email the source or a link to where I can download it?
Thanks in advance!
Frank
Hi Tim,
I’d love to review the source for the Ajax Polls package and probably make some modifications to it. I’d be glad to send you any and all updates I make to it.
Keep up the great work.
Zac
Hi Tim,
Is this poll also working on v4 of Umbraco? Are there any problems known to this package in v4? I’m looking for an Umbraco Poll, but this is the only one, and I haven’t found out yet if it handles well with v4.
Tnx in advance!
Remco
To answer my own question, it seems to work in 4.0.2.1!
Could you please send me the source code? I’m implementing it in a Dutch site and need to modify some texts.
Thanx in advance!
Remco

Is there any “guide” for installing and using this? I’m getting an error when I try to use it:
Invalid object name ‘xtraStarRating’.
Description: An unhandled exception occurred during the execution of the current web request. Please review the stack trace for more information about the error and where it originated in the code.
Exception Details: System.Data.SqlClient.SqlException: Invalid object name ‘xtraStarRating’.
This happens when I pass the parameter “RatingBarUniqueId” (if I don’t pass that parameter I get an obvious error stating that I need to pass it).
I have installed the star rating package and all when I insert the macro to the template i will get this!!
&nbps;

any idea? am I doing it right?
Have I missed anything?!!
any help is much appreciated.
Thanks so much for all your hard work! I am using the Star Rating package for a number of sites and it works great.
I am trying to find the source so that I can edit to make a thumbs-up/thumbs-down version (this seems to be the trend right now..). It used to be hosted here, but the link no longer works:
http://testing.netcentric.be/TG.Umb.StarRating/xtraUmbracoStarRatingSourceRC1.zip.
Can you please re-post somewhere? Thanks!
Your ajax star rating is giving me error now my menu and other xstl files cannot be created after un install it
Could not load file or assembly ‘file:///C:\Users\ASUS\Documents\My Web Sites\Umbraco CMS14\bin\bin\xtraUmbracoStarRating.dll’ or one of its dependencies. The system cannot find the file specified.
whats teh reason how to resolve this issue please let me know rigth away
Thank you
Max
Max,
If you notice, it is looking for a bin folder within the bin folder, but this does not exist. This is due to a change somewhere between Umbraco 4 and 4.5. You need to either change your xsltextensions.config to remove the preceeding “\bin” or you can create a bin folder within your bin folder and move the dll there. The 1st method woule be better, but functionally they both work the same.
Just downloaded the package to have a play using umb version 4.7.0 and when i click send as mail i get the following:
Server Error in ‘/’ Application.

This version of EO.Web.dll is built for ASP.NET 2.0. Please use the .NET 1.1 build to run on ASP.NET 1.1.

Hi Tim,
We are currently evaluating a number of CMS systems to create our new extranet site for /- 5.000 users. Since we are a Microsoft oriented company, I want to limit the choice in .NET based systems.
I don’t have a lot of experience with Umbraco but when looking at the Umbraco site to the upcoming releases page, there is one thing that worries me. Under “will not be implemented” they mention multi language support.
Since I live in Belgium and you are familiar with the multilanguage aspect here, I wondered how you handle this. The site will be used in multi countries but with a main focus to BE. I want to avoid having to recreate the same page just to have it translated. We currently use Ektron which has an easy way to handle to handle this but has some shortcommings in other areas.
Can you give me some info on how you handle multi language for BE oriented sites?
Greets,
Geert
@Geert,
Check out this chapter on umbraco.tv for more details on how to setup multilingual sites http://umbraco.com/help-and-support/video-tutorials/umbraco-fundamentals/running-multiple-sites/structure,-domains-and-languages
