Skuid NLX, SFX, & EXP

When I access a skuid page from the VF page/tab that is the default for an app (using the SFDC apps menu) I don’t get icons. When I access the skuid page directly, I get icons.Thoughts?

So here’s the deal, I’m like 90% developer and around 10% designer. I often end up designing pages from a database perspective instead of a user perspective. Users often complain about the UX, even though all of the relevant information is technically available on the page. I have recently begun a project to improve the UX of our skuid pages. I have noticed that with the new skuid website, the phrase “UX” appears a lot. Clearly skuid gets the importance of UX. I understand some of the basic differences between UI and UX and I have read a lot of great resources online about this.I would like to know if there can be some kind of idea sharing/best practice thread for people to share UX ideas that pertain to using skuid. A couple of examples :When looking at a record detail page, what do users want to see? I often drag in a field editor and throw a bunch of relevant fields in, but maybe there should be some kind of widget at the top with some quick hitting important details.  When adding a

Thought I would report this. The file uploader does not work on one of our machines. It is Windows 7 running IE10. We get an error saying that the subject field is required. It works fine on Chrome on that machine, though.

Hello Community,Let’s imaging I have two objects:1) Product2) Quantity per Yearthe object 2) has a lookup toward object 1) and contains two field: Year , QuantityIs there a way to build a table in SKUID in which i show the records of the object 2) as columns?Example:Image we have two products: product1 and product2and 4 records of “quantity per year”: 2 related to product1 and 2 to product2:      1) related to product1: year = 2014, quantity = 2     2) related to product1: year = 2015, quantity = 4     3) related to product2: year = 2014, quantity = 5     4) related to product2: year = 2015, quantity = 8Is there a way to build a table like the following?Product Name             2014               2015--------------------------------------------------------------product1                          2                     4product2                          5                     8Thank you very much.Gabriele

I’ve created a master page with a sticky header and footer and a top nav bar, and it’s working well on all its child pages (some great new tutorials on this stuff, Team Skuid - nice work!). I want to set a background image on the master page using a parallax effect. So I went to the master page, edited page properties and set the background image with these settings: background-size: cover; background-attachment: fixed; background-position: center center; background-repeat: no-repeat; background-color: transparent; But when I look at the child pages, the background image is dependent on the amount of content in the page, instead of covering the full height of the browser. If the page is short because there’s not much content, the background image falls short. E.g.: A page with a long table of records displayed gives a full background:https://community.skuid.com/t/new/add\_details?topic[subject]=background+image Whereas a page with only a small amount of content gives a partial backg

Hi! I am currently trying to implement a Salesforce JS button into my Skuid page. The reference fields in the URL are not pulling dynamically and I was wondering what the correct format would be or if I need to create new variables in my code. (I am not JS savvy).Original SF button code: var u = “https://www.toutapp.com/pitches/new?name={!Contact.Name}&email={!Contact.Email}&salesforce_contact_id={!Contact.Id}}&force_bookmarklet=true&style=salesforce”;var w = window; w.open(u,‘Tout’,‘scrollbars=1,status=1,width=762,height=’ + ( w.screen.height < 970 ? w.screen.height : 970))Skuid reference Fields:     model: SelectedAccountContacts (Name, Email, Id)Any thoughts??      

Recently I’ve sometimes have seen the error message “Time Limit exceeded” show up for som pages. Usually after a reload or just wait some time it goes away. However for a couple of pages this message seems to appear more frequently and I’m about to release some of these pages to users and the beta-testers also get this error now and then. Before going into production I would like to solve this.  The common thin k between pages where this appears seems to be that they have aggregate models. One of the pages that gets this the most has a Queue where I use the aggregate model to get distinct values from a custom object. The object contains workorders and the queue should only show areas where the person using the page has worked. With regular SQL I would have uses Select Distinct for this but with Skuid I have found that grouping an aggreate model can be used to get the same result. However what is strange is that the page usually loads really fast but sometimes seems to hang for a while

How i could get current logged in user details and current logged in IP Address in skuid page.  Is there any skuid javascript or any other work around.

Email to case is enabled. Customer replies to emails sent for a case are creating new case records instead of appending to the original case.

I wanted to display an error message on a popup and what I did was, add a page Title component into the popup gave a unique name to the page title component in a custom javascript, on click of a button on the popup, used the below mechanism to display the custom message, var pageTitle = $(‘#searchContacts’); var editor = pageTitle.data(‘object’).editor; editor.handleMessages([{message: ‘an error’, severity:‘ERROR’}]); However this works fine if I logging as an Administrator, The problem is If I logging another user (which doesn’t have some permission to the page title component I guess) It gives me the below error Uncaugh TypeError: Cannot read property ‘editor’ of undefined What am I doing wrong here? Is this really a permission issue? Is there another way to display the custom js error? Thanks in advance

When using mobile version, the toggle left action does not work for Firefox but it works well in Chrome and Safari.

Sorry if this is more of a Salesforce question. But I’ve been stuck on this for a while. Maybe I am missing something. I have a parent object (Location) and a child object (Exposure). This means people can add payroll, sales, man hours, etc. to the location on a monthly or quarterly basis. There is also a child object of location called “Incidents.” To put it simply what I want to do is be able to show the number of incidents that occurred at this location in the exposure period created. Ideally this would be a formula but I don’t think that’s possible. The other two options I am thinking of are UI only fields, or building some sort of a process/flow that updates a field on the exposure object every time an incident is created/edited on this location. Anyone have any better ideas?

I’ve gone through the tutorial several times and searched the forum to no avail…I’m creating a detail page for a custom object and see how to create the URL Parameter if the url matches the format in the example.  The URLs for my custom object are different and I can’t figure out how to modify the Condition Properties appropriately.My custom object URLs look like this:  https://na34.salesforce.com/a0661000001rrId instead of having an Id= in the URL as the examples do.Thanks for the help!

I’m adding a skuid page include in the UI directly. But I’m getting a standard Salesforce error when the VF page does not exist: Page include does not exist  error asking me to create Page include. I selected the skuid page from the include dropdown and added appropriate page params. The included page works fine by iteself. The main page has a master page though. Does page include not work when the main page has a master?

Hey team,To reproduce,Click Configure Drawer.  The drawer dialog is shown in the composer. Select the dialog and move around in the composer.  Dialog jumps to the bottom. Select the dialog to re-size.  More weirdness occurs. I normally just accept the flakiness and deal with it assuming someone else will report it or it will be found during regression.  However, yesterday I was onsite with a customer and they were complaining that the composer had gotten worse after the upgrade to Banzai.  Thought you would appreciate the feedback.Regards,Irvin

I have a mobile page that has a reference field “patient”. When you begin typing the name of the patient, the search suggestions pop up below the field with no background color and display over top of the field below. (Image attached). I can create some space between the reference field and the next, but if there are several suggestions, they will spill down over the next field anyway. Is there a way to get a white background to the search suggestions? In the attached image, you will see hypothetical patient, Rocky Balboa’s name jumbled with the field below…

Salesforce1 has not been friendly to our mobile app lately… It won’t load many times. it freezes and crashes, etc… However, it works fine if I navigate to the Skuid page directly in safari or mobile chrome. Here is a quick overview of how to add an default icon to a page to have it display as the home screen icon on IOS. Ideally, I would like a web app experience where I can send the link to someone, they can add it to their home screen and the home screen icon is out logo. I’m not sure how this would work in Skuid though because it says to add the icon to the page’s root directory. Is this possible with a Skuid app?

Figured this should have its own thread. Continued from here: https://community.skuid.com/t/appexchange-package-upload-to-include-custom-themesChild pages do not update at all via the post install script and are untouched. Manually I can unpack the pages from the static resource.I am unable to figure out how to get my post install script to auto deploy my child pages. I imagine this has to do with every org having different Ids for pages. The script would need to identify master pages, deploy those first, identify child pages, and link those back to the already deployed master pages. 

We’re moving VF pages with skuid:page from one org to another using the ANT migration tool. We’re getting errors like this: pages/CenterDefaults.page -- Error: The specified Package Version number does not exist for that Package: skuid, 7.5 It looks like the VF pages are expecting to find whatever version of skuid existed when the page was created in the source org. The target org only has 7.24. Any good way around this?

I have a table which often gets exported to excel via the export feature. I have a field in the table called “Utility_Account_Number__c” which is a Text field. in some cases a number can be up to 20 numbers. When exporting to excel, excel treats these fields as number fields instead of text fields. This causes the number to get all weird. Firstly the numbers show up in a scientific notation kind of look. Secondly even when telling excel to treat it as text, it is still messed up. For example a number that looked like 00532432402341233453 will come out like 5324324023000000000. Basically leading zeroes get thrown out, and later numbers get converted to zeroes. Obviously these numbers need to be accurate and this is causing quite an issue. I suppose this could be considered an excel issue, but I am setting the field as text in SFDC, so shouldn’t it retain that data type during the export?

Hello!I’m not sure what the issue is here - one of our orgs cannot access any of the Skuid authored pages (e.g. page builder, themes, deployment, etc). I’ve granted login access.Cheers!Louis
