I started building my site using Static Files for some Templates and Chunks. Now I've changed my mind and don't want to do that and would like to separate these Templates and Chunks away from the static files.
However if I uncheck the Static File checkbox and save nothing happens - on reload the Template is still linked to the static file.
Would anyone know how I could remedy this?

Ok, I have never seen anything like this before and hoping someone else has. I just finished patching our Dev and Test servers to Nov2017CU (SharePoint 2013). Since then, any solutions that are using JS injection from Site Assets are not updating. I'll make a change to the file, the library reflects that I made the change, but when I attempt to load the page accessing the js file, the changes are not reflected. Hard refreshes and full cache cleans are not affecting it. If I close and reopen my editor (VSCode) my changes are gone. When I look at the version history, the current version doesn't have my changes, but the previous version does. If I try to revert to that version, it doesn't take (still shows the previous version of the file).
Here's where it becomes extra weird. I have deleted the entire file from the library. Reset IIS (heck, I even rebooted the server at one time). It somehow still loads the file. The file is no longer in the library, but the server is still serving it up to the browser. I have confirmed it is not getting it from another location as the Dev tools are showing the file is located in the Asset Library the file was deleted from. Even users who have never accessed the site before are still getting that file in their browser.
This isn't limited to a single site either. I have other developers in different sub sites (same site collection) that are having the same issues.
Anyone seen this before?
Looks like your web application has BLOB cache enabled which is causing files to served from the cache.
There are 2 ways to fix:
1) The heavy handed way would be to flush the BLOB cache using powershell commands mentioned:
$webApp = Get-SPWebApplication "<WebApplicationURL>"
[Microsoft.SharePoint.Publishing.PublishingCache]::FlushBlobCache($webApp)
This will flush all the files in the BLOB. Usually, the files are cached based on the max-age attribute value. So, that is the reason that your files are being served even if you had deleted it from the source.
2) The surgical knife approach would be to append a query string, like (https://sitecollurl/siteassets/app.js?v=1.1), to the file references (usually in master page, page layouts, webpart references, script links etc. wherever it is referenced). When you append a query string to the file, it will force the browser to download the newer version of the file. Would prefer this approach as it will not unnecessarily clear other files from BLOB.
I want to include some images within my ipa-File, that need to be placed into the app's documents folder. A similar request was here: Preloading Documents into iOS App. But I'm not familiar with Objective-C. I think I can do it some way in Xamarion.iOS, but the problem in my opinion is the quite large number of files (around 300MB). When I include the files within the AppRessources and copy them on startup, they exist twice on the disk. So there is no real saving...
Any other ideas, how i can include files without being stored twice?
Files that you include in studio goes into your bundle. You can only read them from your application. Modifications and removing is not possible. File that you copy from bundle into your Documents folder, can be modified or removed in Document folder. So there is no way to removing files from a bundle, even if you copy them into Document folder.
You can use on demand resources to download them later intro your app:

I have an app that synchronises content with a web server so that the app ends up with an offline and cut down version of the server based web pages. All text and html is stored in a SQLite database but what is the best approach for handling file assets? In my case this is a mix of image and audio files.
The synchronisation is all set up in the core project and my Touch project has a Content directory set up for storing the assets and my intention had been to have a similar setup for Droid. I could pass the list of files needed to the UI projects and download them from there but that seems wrong.
Thanks.
For that I would create a Service in Mvx which the ViewModels you create use for getting the external assets. Take for instance the Daily Dilbert Tutorial. You could consider the daily comics as being very similar to your external assets, where the DilbertService is used to get all the comics and presents them in a List. However your list could be a list of files located on the SDcard or where you decide to store your files.
If you create a new nanoc site, and then run nanoc view, it works well. The CSS, pathing, and assets are correctly handled. However, when I run a nanoc compile, it's not handled the same way. I get broken CSS, broken paths etc.
What is causing this - I assume it's the rules and
Compile only generates files in /output. Opening one of the html files there is possible, but as the docs state, your browser will not be able to find the CSS files.
Either use nanoc view to load CSS files correctly, or use a local web server to view the files. (Note: nanoc view is nothing more than a local web server).
Our site is currently set to pass all files with the xml file extension through the asp.net worker process because all the xml files on the site at the moment are generated dynamically on being hit, by writing the output directly into the response stream.
However we now have a requirement to add a file which is much larger and takes several minutes to generate in this way. I wrote a console app to generate the file and set it to run nightly, but because of the global IIS setting directing xml files to run through asp_wp, it's not being served properly.
I can't seem to find a way to make an exemption for the treatment of a single file in the IIS settings. Is there any other way we can do it?
Cheers,
Matt
As far as I know, this is not possible for a single file, but you can do it for a whole folder.
You simply place a web.config file in the folder in question and configure the settings you need there.
