I want to add edit and cancel option in search result as shown in image. how to add this.
like I've said here the backoffice extension is build with widgets. To create functionalities you need, please read about backoffice widgets and try to create some basic widgets and connect them through sockets. (If you have any problems with widget connections here is a useful question about the example in the documentation). You can take a look here too, the link will redirect you to a documentation page about "Actions" which are basically widgets too but they're a little bit different.

I need to build a comments section on my apostrophe for users to be able and leave comments/feedback around content that someone will create in pages. That would require to create collections in the database as well as allow users to comment only but not to remove any the module/widget. Also, comments need to, of course, be linked to pages.
Not really sure, how I can approach this task. Whether, to build a separate microservice or a widget to handle this. I have read the tutorial for building a contact form in apostrophe, also tested. However, I don't really need to have an option on the Admin Bar as comments are linked to each page, I need the form to be static (don't want any users to remove them or add more than one on a single page), also want the comments to appear below the form once they have been submitted.
Any idea of how I can do this?
Thank you for your time.

EDIT
Well, before I needed to do this for pages and I even managed to post the comments specific for each page where it should be. However, needed to make a few changes on my site and now this comment widget appears in pieces like blogposts! However, haven't being able to display the specific comments for each piece. Is there any way I can find the piece page url similar to data.page._url so that I can compare with the one attached to each comment?
Thanks!
We almost always use Disqus for this purpose, but if you need a commenting functionality that is internal to your site, there is the apostrophe-pieces-submit-widgets module that can be extended for this purpose.
You would definitely want the comments to be an instance of an apostrophe-piece in the docs collection, which would mean it would by default be included as an item in the admin bar. Easy enough to hide that, however.
Following this pattern would result in creating / configuring 3 project-level modules:
comments - extends apostrophe-pieces, defines the comment piece type
comments-widgets - extends apostrophe-pieces-widgets, a widget to display comments on a template (you could also hard code this behavior into a template instead of making it a widget)
comments-submit-widgets - extends apostrophe-pieces-submit-widgets, a widget to display the front-end form that users use to submit their comments
Building this sort of functionality directly into a piece and its widget player is not too difficult, check out this project for more
https://github.com/stuartromanek/apostrophe-comment-system
Steps:
Checkout project / install / create user / get up and running
Create a Comment piece from the admin bad (Home Page Comments, for example)
Add the new piece to singleton widget on the homepage
Comment!
This code should give you a pretty clear guide for creating backend functionality that can be interacted with on the frontend.
Permissions for interacting with the widget itself should be managed through apostrophe-permissions http://apostrophecms.org/docs/tutorials/intermediate/permissions.html
I've never used Drupal before (development or managing content). I was asked to extend the admin content page to have a filter and simply don't know enough to get moving quickly.
Can anyone tell me if adding a search by text filter in the admin content area requires code or is there a CMS feature like adding a node for this task.
If code is required, is there something like a hook for this area? Not sure where to start. I will be investigating on my own but pointers to get me oriented to Drupal would help.
By default Drupal provides search mechanism ready to use. But there are also additional module which can improve search experience. You don't need any coding to use that search. You already have search form block ready to use.
Go to Structure -> Blocks and find block called "Search form". Now all you have to do is to put that block in some region and it will appear on front-end. Of course if it's not already styled by your theme it may be needed to put some extra CSS to make it look nice. There are also some template files which you can override and put some your HTML if you need.
There's also template file for search results page (which of course will work out of box also).
You may also need to create new block region if you want to place your form at some specific place, not covered by any existing region defined by your theme (easy thing to do!).
See https://drupal.stackexchange.com/q/30633/101329, the "Admin Views" module lets you configure the search form as you like.
We have a requirement for creating a banner for which we plan to use Web Content Display.
As part of the implementation I have created a structure with the required fields like link-type (drop-down), etc and using corresponding template.
I wish to make a conditional check based on the type of selection in the link-type and show link-to-page or text-box.
I observed that there is no option to have a conditional check in the article editor rendering.
Thus I wish to check whether there is any hack or trick that we can do to achieve the above conditional thing?
Also, can we inject custom Javascript to achieve this as part of the structure?
I finally have to stick to the default options in the liferay structure. I plan to use separator provided by LR to categories the elements to avoid end user (admin) confusion.
P.S. I was not able to locate any cool doc that would help in implementing the suggestion made by #Tobias (sorry, but I guess the wiki link above assumes you to be an expert of LR, and even the sample links in there does not work).
You know, the publishing suite offers other content than forum. for example blogs and also some custom content
i know how to add articles/widgets to the page itself, but how do i add such a thing into a forum secion?
for example, on the left column i would have forums and on the right column i would have some news reader widget
could someone help?
Maybe it is enough for you to enable the "forum sidebar" in the admincp.
admincp->Settings->Options->Forum Sidebar and Block Options->Enable Forum Sidebar=YES.
Now you can add custom blocks with HTML and PHP.
For vBulletin 3.x, the solution is to edit the appropriate templates (FORUMDISPLAY, SHOWTHREAD, etc). I can't be much more specific than that, I'm afraid, since the exact details will vary depending on what kind of modifications you've already made to your templates and the exact details of the widgets you wish to insert.
Is there a ready made solution to allow users to add comments to an image posted in SharePoint picture library or basically any item in a document library?
What I need is allow user who are viewing an image from a picture library for example to add comment, view comments others have left and provide some sort of voting. Similar to what you get with Facebook or Youtube.
What is the easiest way to do that? preferably something free
Here you go and you can Customize as needed .
