Umbraco Forms Introduction: a) Stores the forms in the /App_Plugins/UmbracoForms/Data/forms/ folder b)  Stores the forms in JSON format c)  Gives each form a GUID, such as: ea-3e73-4b99-9d81-3055149e3c2e.json that can be used to reference the forms. In the main umbraco template add links to,  JQUERY,  Jquery Validation Jquery Unobtrusive Validation EX:    <!-- Javascripts -->     <script src="/js/jquery.min.js"></script>     <script src="/js/bootstrap.min.js"></script> <script src="/scripts/fanoe.js"></script> <script src="http://ajax.aspnetcdn.com/ajax/jquery.validate/1.14.0/jquery.validate.js"></script> <script src="http://ajax.aspnetcdn.com/ajax/mvc/5.2.3/jquery.validate.unobtrusive.js"></script> Umbraco Forms, list Forms from Directory: @inherits Umbraco.Web.Mvc.UmbracoTemplatePage @using System.Xml.XPath @using Sy

The following script displays an RSS feed from another web site and first cehcks to see if the feed is available. @inherits Umbraco.Web.Mvc.UmbracoTemplatePage @using System.Xml; @{                  var rssFeedTitle = @ViewData["RSStitle"];   var rssFeedURL = @ViewData["RSSURL"];  } @{ <h3>@rssFeedTitle</h3> var request = (HttpWebRequest)WebRequest.Create("https://jobs.gmc-uk.org/rss/rss200_jobs_2965.xml"); request.Method = "HEAD"; try { var response = (HttpWebResponse)request.GetResponse(); //Get the XML from remote URL XmlDocument xml = new XmlDocument(); //URL currently hardcoded - but you could use a macro param to pass in URL xml.Load("" + @rssFeedURL); //Select the nodes we want to loop through //XmlNodeList nodes = xml.SelectNodes("//item[position() <= 3]"); XmlNodeList nodes = xml.SelectNodes("//item"); //Traverse the entir

Passing a parameter variable from a Template to a Partial View Example - Passing a Page Id to a Partial View. In the example below we are passing 3 page Ids (1090. 1091, 1092) to a partial view.  The Partial View will display the details for each of these nodes on a home page.  See final output below. 1) In your Template: @Html.Partial("HomePageLinksToLandingPages", new ViewDataDictionary{{ "pageId", 1090}}) @Html.Partial("HomePageLinksToLandingPages", new ViewDataDictionary{{ "pageId", 1091}}) @Html.Partial("HomePageLinksToLandingPages", new ViewDataDictionary{{ "pageId", 1092}}) 2) The Partial View: @inherits Umbraco.Web.Mvc.UmbracoTemplatePage @{ var thisPageId = 1090; var stringPage = @ViewData["pageId"]; thisPageId = Convert.ToInt32(stringPage); } <div class="col-md-4"> <arti
