In this post we’ll complete the sample by describing how to authorize a UWP app to access Google Cloud Product services. To demonstrate this, we’ll recreate the ASP.NET MVC sample […]

In the current 9.1.6110 release of Sitefinity, there is a known issue with the Sitefinity CAPTCHA MVC form field that prevents it from firing the client-side validation.

However, after after a few updates to the project and adding some 2.0 and 4.0 compatible […]
Greetings all, I know it’s been a while since I’ve updated here, but work, life, and everything once again has me by the throat, but not in a bad way, really. But as always, the first things to be sacrified are side projects like this. One thing I did manage to do was finally install […]

We already covered the basic RssView, so now in this part we take a more detailed […]
After finally getting my music back online earlier this week, the next logical step was to get my Dark Synthesis Podcast back online. Unfortunately, Sitefinity (the CMS this site uses) does not have built in support for podcasts. In fact, the Generic Content Module (which I am using to publish my music, and eventually hopefully […]
