At long last I finally found time to publish the latest version of the Sitefinity Toolkit, as of now version 1.1 with support for Sitefinity 3.7 SP1 through SP3 (it will not work with any other versions than these) on both the Standard and Community versions. See the main page for the Sitefinity Toolkit for […]

As part of the process of preparing the Sitefinity Toolkit 1.1 update for release later this weekend, I needed to upgrade my sites to the latest Sitefinity SP3 update. For those of you who’ve done this, you know it’s MOSTLY a simple process, but can get tricky when copying the /Sitefinity folder files, because, like […]
Greetings all, I have to apologize for the delay in completing my Sitefinity Toolkit Series. Things have once again picked up at work and I’m even busier than the last time! I just completed an update to the City of McAllen home page and now I’m moving on to an even bigger project, followed by […]
IMPORTANT UPDATE FOR USERS OF SITEFINITY TOOLKIT 1.2 There is a compatibility issue between the Mobile Foundation library used for mobile detection and the Sitefinity Administration Login that could not be resolved. The Mobile Detection Module can still be used but the Mobile Foundation must be DISABLED in web.config by commenting out the related sections […]
Apologies for the delay in continuing this series. Life keeps me busy, and while I wouldn’t have it any other way, it’s sometimes difficult to find time for the little things.

I’d like to apologize for the delay in continuing my Sitefinity Toolkit series. Wednesday I was out sick, and have spent the rest of this week catching up. However I didn’t want the weekend to pass without adding at least something, so here is a quick rundown on using the new Search Index Providers provided […]
One of the best features of Sitefinity is the Events Module. But while you can easily add and categorize events, and even show a nifty interactive map on the event detail page, there isn’t any built-in way to let your visitors add the event to their Outlook calendar. Fortunately, with the help of DDay.iCal Class […]
I realize that in my last post on Forcing Lowercase Urls I said I would be going over the Smooth Menu feature of the Sitefinity Toolkit. However, as I started writing it, I discovered it was a little more complicated than I expected, so I’m going to hold off on that one until I have […]
One of the things that has always annoyed me about unix-based systems is the fact that they are case-sensitive. While I understand the need to differentiate between the two, and the advantages it CAN bring, in my opinion, it’s just not worth the hassle. Since Windows servers ignore the case of requests, it should theoretically […]
