Media not showing up for preview - kentico

I've had a report from a user whereby the preview link functionality isn't working quite right. The process is simple, go to properties, click on show preview and that should then generate a link that can be forwarded.
However the preview that's being shown doesn't show media that has been linked in as a background image. The URL that has been generated for the image doesn't resolve correctly (Access Denied "This virtual context URL is not valid.").
Oddly this isn't consistent, some components show the background correctly, some do not but there's no real cause I can put my finger on, for example, one web part works fine on one page but the same web part doesn't on another page with the exact same template, etc. just some minor copy changes.

Is there any possibility to create custom widget for Azure hosted API Management?

https://azure.microsoft.com/en-us/updates/new-azure-api-management-developer-portal-is-now-generally-available/
Extensibility—The portal comes built into every API Management instance (excluding the Consumption tier). If you wish to extend the portal’s core functionality (for example, create your own widgets to fetch data from other sources), fork the GitHub repository, implement the code changes, and self-host your own modified version of the portal.
Is it so that we can't do custom widgets on Azure hosted Developer portal? If so, then this is a backstep from the legacy portal as there we could write custom HTML and JS to get custom features.
I believe still there are couple of things you can do.
Home page
The default Home page is filled with dummy content. You can either remove the whole sections with the content or keep the structure and adjust the elements one by one. Replace the generated text and images with your own and make sure the links point to desired locations.
Layouts
Replace the automatically generated logo in the navigation bar with your own image.
Edit the content of the portal, customize the website's look, and publish the changes.
Please refer https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/api-management/api-management-howto-developer-portal-customize and let me know how it goes
You can submit a pull request to the repository.
If you create a custom widget and this will be useful for many users it can be included in the default set of widgets.

Acumatica Report Not Showing in Acumatica

I recently just got into Acumatica Report Designer. I have followed a quick tutorial I had found at https://www.timrodman.com/building-your-first-report-in-acumatica-report-designer/, but when I put my report into my Local instance of Acumatica I can not see it. I can directly put the screen id in the URL, but if I search it nothing pops up. I changed all the access rights to granted for the report itself. I have all admin rights on my local instance. What am I missing?
Make sure that you are adding a Workspace and category for anything with Modern UI
Note the top report will show up on Inventory Workspace under the Physical Inventory Category
The bottom 4 reports are loaded on the server but not mapped to the ui so can be accessed in code via an action etc. but are not on the ui. And would be under hidden for security purposes
Site Map Screen
Security View under hidden Workspace
Can you post a picture of your sitemap? My guess is that your URL is incorrect.

Why won't the Note Board SharePoint 2013 web part work?

I am trying to create a dashboard via SharePoint and I would like to create a section beneath a displayed document where users can type and submit a description of what is going on in the document above. I don't want the users to be able to edit the site page in order to add text to the page so I believe the best solution would be the creation of a web part where a user can create and submit their desired description. The only web parts that I've come across to do something like this are the Note Board web part and the Microfeed web part. The Microfeed part seems too much like a social media page. My problem is I would like to try the Note Board web part but whenever I insert it on the page it never displays an area to type in, just the title "Note Board".
So it seems that this problem came up because of the way my account is related to this particular SharePoint site that I am editing. My account doesn't have a profile attached to it essentially and the way that these notes are shared and stored directly relates to having one of these profiles. The Note Board Web Part turned out to be working perfectly fine my account is just not capable of posting within it. (I figured I'd answer incase anyone else comes up with this problem.)

Fixing dashboards on Team Foundation SharePoint portal

The project Dashboards will not display on my SharePoint Team Project portal, as below:
However, project data should be available. Excel Reports do work, and I can browse the cube through SSMS. I checked the warehouse web service, and it also reports everything is fine and ready:
Project Work Items, Recent Builds, and Recent Checkins web parts are all also working fine. Any thoughts on the final piece I'm missing to get dashboards to show up?
Edit: More confusing behavior; When I click Edit Page, the dashboard web parts do show up. Each pops up the confirmation asking if I want to load external queries, but after I click yes for each, it loads up fine and shows the data.
Another Edit: It appears the web parts are starting Minimized. I can click the context menu and select Restore, and then the content will show, as pictured below. However, I still have the questions why are the starting minimized and what is with the inaccurate error message in red?

How to get Site Icon to properly update in Sharepoint 2010 Web Part Page

I'm working on creating a reusable and extensible web application in SharePoint 2010. I've created a master page to apply across all pages in the site. However, whenever I create a web part page and navigate to it, the site icon does not display. Instead of my custom site icon being displayed it shows the default SharePoint icon. I can get around this by placing the icon directly into the master page, but that would require me to create a new master page if I ever wanted to extend this web application.
Does anyone know why this is happening? My initial thought was that the web part page had somehow been customized to not use the default master page, but that does not seem to be the case: if I update the master page it is reflected in the web part page.
Googling around and checking this site yielded little answers. I only found one post out there that reported the same issue I am observing but there was no solution.
If it helps, I did notice one phenomena when navigating to this page. Before the page completely loads, the correct site icon appears for a split second before being replaced with the default site icon. Hope that helps.
I ran into the same issue this morning and didn't want to create a custom master page just for this, but luckily it was quickly resolved by following admlcrunch's suggestion (on SharePoint 2010):
Go to the desire page
Click on the "Page" tab at the top
Click on the "Title Bar Properties" at the right (in the ribbon)
In the Image Link section on the right, paste in the image URL
Click OK
The only bad thing about this is, you have to update every Web Part page that you want custom icon image to display.
I was just having the same issue. Web Part Pages have their own icon that you can set.
To set the icon click Page > Title Bar Properties. This will open the Web Part Page Title Bar dialog. In this dialog there is an area to set the Image Link. You can set the icon here. I just copied the URL to the site icon.
Open the page in designer and remove the custom titlebar place holder:
[WebPartPages:TitleBarWebPart]
from the :
[asp:Content ContentPlaceHolderId="PlaceHolderPageTitleInTitleArea"]
