I created a custom content type called ContentPage and attached a taxonmy field (Taxo). I'm trying to have the autoroute generate the route off the Taxonomy term selected for ContentPage. The end result should be http://my-site.com/taxonomy/term/slug
Here is one of the rules I tried: {Content.Fields.ContentPage.Taxo}/{Content.Slug}
Whatever I try, I only get the slug.
This has been asked in many occassions. you need to look at the way the slug is created and get a token too.

I have built a website (with MODX) where some products are managed and displayed via the articles addon. The products should have a custom ordering but I don't know how to use a template variable for that.
If I enter the name of the TV in the "Sort Field" field nothing is shown at all.
So is it somehow possible to use a TV there?
Or is there another way to achive a custom ordering (note that I need the summary and date fields, so I cant't abuse them for that)?
You can do this by using getResource package. Look at sorbyTV, sortdirTV, sortbyTVType parameters in manual:

How to implement Attribute to find his own name in the admin area in Opencart : Products - Attributes - Attributes? Is that there is a separate field and simply by driving into the field and displays the name of the attribute is an attribute, as usual searching for items in the admin by name, but only with attribute
It's hard to understand what you are asking, but if you are trying to use attributes for products then you must first define them at catalog>attributes>attributes.
To List attributes in the Products tab you will need edit these files
admin>view>template>catalog>product_form.tpl
admin>controller>catalog>product.php
If your understanding of PHP or Opencart isn't very strong it will help you to copy data from the attribute.php controller to the product.php controller.
As for the search function, this is something I haven't done before but you could try using the search function on the front of the website as reference.
I recommend working through this as best you can then asking more questions if or when you get stuck.
*Update
Ok so since HTML is your strenth it will be smartest to start from there. Open any of these files (the ones that have the data you need).
admin>view>template>catalog>attribute_form.tpl
admin>view>template>catalog>attribute_group_form.tpl
admin>view>template>catalog>attribute_group_list.tpl
admin>view>template>catalog>attribute_list.tpl
Then work backwards with what you see. The tpl will show variables that look like $attribute, track these back to
admin>controller>catalog>attribute.php
admin>controller>catalog>attribute_group.php
And you will see how all the code is used to pull the data from the model and format it if necessary.
Is there any module in Orchard CMS that I can install to get a checkbox list? I checked in the gallery but could not find one. If there is none, is there is a workaround this?
I want to associate a product item with multiple categories (fixed set of categories).
Thanks!
EDIT :
I checked the Taxonomy module as per the suggestion. Now, I want to access the terms in the view. I have seen some posts where they can access it using
(IEnumerable<Contrib.Taxonomies.Models.TermPart>)Model.Terms
Using shape tracing, I am trying to figure out how to access the terms. My model doesn't have any terms field! I can access my custom type (Project) which has 'ProjectCategory' as Taxonomy Field. But there is no mean to view/select terms from there.
See attached screenshots.
Any idea?
I don't think there is a module specifically for checkbox lists, but it sounds like the Taxonomies module might be what you're looking for. You can add a Taxonomy field to your product content type, and define a Taxonomy for that field that contains all your categories.
Once you do that the editor page for your products will have a checkbox list (or radio select if you allow only one in the taxonomy field's settings) for the "Categories" taxonomy.
I managed to access the terms the following way :
IEnumerable<TermPart> assignedTerms = _taxonomyService.GetTermsForContentItem(contentItemId, "NameOfTaxonomy");
Lets say for example, I have a list of products that each have it's own page... in what way can I create a single page that will list each product as it's contents as a list (with hyperlinks)? Not really sure how to do this directly in Orchard - or will I need to create a custom page / widget? Thanks for any help... new to Orchard and not sure how to tackle this.
You have a couple options. I believe the Orchard gallery at orchardproject.net has a module called Simple Commerce that may solve your problem. (it's simple so it might not)
(In the following section, I've tried to boldface the terminology words that are 1) are crucial to understanding how to use Orchard and 2) helpful in finding your way around the dashboard)
Another option may be first creating a Content Type--probably one named Product with some Fields describing an individual product. Price, SKU and description come to mind, but you'll be better able to describe your own products. Each Content Type in Orchard can be associated with any combination of Parts. You may have to research which ones you actually want for an individual product, but I'd recommend:
Body (this could replace the Description I suggested above) You could include any amount of HTML/script in this section to make your individual product pages look fancy!
Common (this has to be added when Containable is used)
Containable (this will allow the items to be listed)
Route (so you can link to a specific product)
This gives each product its own slug (URL)
Tags (to allow products to be categorized)
Now, you need to create a new List from the dashboard so you can display the products together (and inherit other features like pagination, etc). Be sure to select the Product Content Type in the Contains drop down list.
Then, you can start creating your Content (your Products) one by one. In the dashboard, click the new Product item and describe each new piece of Content.
Finally, you can link directly to this new List using the Products List's *slug*. You could (and might want to) add the Products List to your main navigation menu. Clicking the Products List and checking the "Show on main menu" box will automagically add a navigation button directly to this page. You could, of course, link to this List from anywhere using the slug (also found on the list's edit page)
This page, from the Orchard documentation pages describes more things you can do with a list of content like modifying the layout of the list, placing content fields in different places and even converting your products to widgets which you could use to display some promotional product offering in a special spot on your site.
I highly recommend reading through at least the documentation provided on the Orchard site to get a good grasp of what this CMS can do out of the box and what you would need to write custom code to accomplish (which you could do in this case, but Orchard can handle it out of the box)
Hope this helps!
Two ways to do this:
http://orchardproject.net/docs/Creating-lists.ashx and http://orchardproject.net/gallery/List/Modules/Orchard.Module.Contrib.Taxonomies
I would like to add a field to a list with displays an Image, but acts as a hyperlink. In other words like the "Hyperlink or Picture" column, but "Hyperlink AND Picture" instead.
Where the two fields you input would be the URL to the image to display, and the URL of the hyperlink.
This must be possible. I notice that the Type (in a document library) column does just that, and also includes the views that are currently being used (in the case of a folder).
Is it possible to duplicate the computed Type field in a document library to read two other fields in the list (which will act as the image url, and the redirect link)? What would the CAML be?
Thanks in advance if anyone could offer any insight.

This can be done but you would need to develop a custom field type. As you have found, SharePoint's default rendering for pictures is without the hyperlink. You need to change how the rendering behaves in Display mode in your own custom field. Check Patterns in Custom Field Rendering for more info.
There are also several examples of creating custom field types on the web. The MSDN articles give a lot of detail about how it all works but don't let that put you off as it's not too tricky.
