I've been trying to customize the survey that is received from Qualtrics so that I may display it the way I want. The Creatives don't give enough customization to do that, so I've been thinking that I may be able to serve the survey using a Custom HTML Creative, extract what's inside and serving it on my own container.
Does anyone have any experience with this? Is there anything that I should look out for, or a better way to do things?
To be more clear on what I am trying to do: I am currently getting the survey using a Custom HTML creative and site intercept. The survey lands on a div tag that I need to modify so that the entire survey is displayed instead of a scrollable section.

So this is more a design/tooling question (no code to show)
The Idea:
I have an idea for a web app that I'd like to implement using either React/Angular depending on the outcome of this discussion really. The idea is that I want to be able to bundle up my web application and embed it in any website with as little code as possible. The end result for the website it's embedded on would be a new 'widget style' button hovering in the corner which when clicked opened up my new React/Angular application in a pop up or layover modal style window.
To be clear, I want to, if possible provide the clients host website with as little code as possible such as:
<script src="https://myappurl.js"><script>
<some-new-element-in-html-body?> </some-new-element-in-html-body?>
This would then leave them with a widget style button that when clicked opened my app as a layover
The How:
Now I know there are probably a few ways of implementing this. I come from an Angular development background as a full stack dev so embedding apps within websites would be a new concept to me. I guess the outcome I want is similar to that of a chat widget application on a website.I'm struggling to find online the best solution or toolset for the job.
Web components seem to have popped up quite a lot. This would result in me having to provide the website with the tag and the new html element but could this then add a widget style button which triggered the application popup. I've also read that React/Angular bundle sizes may be too much for web components, even in smaller apps, so something like preact may be preferred? Again the same question above stands. This youtube video explains preact/react web components and wonder if its the best option - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PUGDzA1uP-Y&t=545s
iFrames are definitely an option if I wanted to simply mount my application with any other website. That said its not really what I'm after, as although I want the contained app, I also want to be able to add this custom widget style button to the host website, without having to edit the website directly.
UMD Libraries - again something else I've come accross but this is the most unclear, and how they differ or would benefit my specific scenario compared to web-components.Now I may be barking up the wrong tree completely, and if so could you kind people please point me in the right direction of what I should be looking at.
I may also need to consider 2 apps, one for rendering a button that loaded quickly annd then facilitated the popup / modal type layover, and then one which loaded up my application with one of the 3 methods mentioned above?
THANKYOU IN ADVANCE! :)
I am searching for django CMS that allows me to create something like custom pages build from predefined components.
Every page should be builded from custom "inpage" components like:
carousel with images
gallery with images
richtext field
plain text field
So as a developer I will build a template for every page of a website from this components and assing a CSS file for the given page. For example one page can look like:
plain text field (heading)
plain text field (some kind of page abstract)
richtext field (part of the text)
gallery with images (few specified images with some style)
richtext field (another part of the text)
Another page could be build in a different way. The key idea is, that every page will have predefined unique layout (template) that is not breakable by users in CMS.
The CMS I would like to use, should allow the user to change content of the particular componets for particular page. So the CMS should create form to change the content of the particular components for a given page (heading, text, images in carousel).
The changable content of the page (form fields) can be stored in database of files, it does not really matter.
The main idea behind this concept is to prevent user from changing the layout provided by designer and enforce the correct styles and correct "content type" for every part of every page.
Note: I used a Mezzanine for last few years and it seems to me easier to code the proposed CMS from scratch rather than use the Mezzanine somehow in this way.
My questions:
does something like exist?
has this type of CMS a common name?
Sorry for being too broad, but I do not really how I can search such a thing (in case it already exists - or at least something similar). Any hint, comment or advice will be more than welcome.
your question is too broad but to answer it quickly:
I don't know that anything like this exactly already exists
There's no common name for this as far as I know.
You're asking two things - one, you want to create a website and give each user some control over the content they create (I suppose you're creating some blogging system or something). second, you want to use a CMS.
The problem with that, I think, is these two things are inherently unrelated. It feels like it's similar - you manage your content with the CMS, just like your users manage their content, but it's actually completely different. One is a tool for developers to quickly build a website, the other is a limited set of tools within an existing website that's exposed to the user. You will never want to expose any part of the CMS to your users, you'll want to have control over that, so it really doesn't matter if you use a CMS or not.
in short - sure, you can use any CMS to build your website, and you can build it from scratch. I'd prefer the latter cause I like building stuff from scratch, but it's really irrelevant to what you're trying to build.
My website has individual pages for members, but I have a select menu used to scroll from one member to the other. I have the select menu coded in the html on every page, but I need a better solution since my membership is growing.
I need to be able to create that same select menu in a separate file with the ability, when selected to jump to another member page, have that embedded in the body where I need it so that all I have to do is alter/ update the external file and it'll be done for all the member pages.
I've looked into javascripting it, mysqling it, but can't find (looking on youtube) a code to exactly help me in what I need.
My typical code for the select
//(select.....
//(option value="http:www.website-Profile-blahblah.html.... so on and so forth.
I need to pull this from an external file to use across the board and place it in the body where I need it.
thanks for any help you can offer.
In general this sounds like something you should be using a back end rendering engine for. As far as the select goes, this would be a great place to use a dropdown menu such as the one provided by bootstrap since clicking a select won't actually move you to another page.
If you dont want to use/can't use a back end rendering engine to render the options, I would suggest looking at angular.js which has a great ng-repeat and ng-option feature that would allow you to dynamically build the select/dropdown with as many users as you want.
angular ng-repeat page: https://docs.angularjs.org/api/ng/directive/ngRepeat
bootstrap dropdown: http://www.w3schools.com/bootstrap/bootstrap_dropdowns.asp (note the a tags could go directly to the user's page)
From experience in cases like this, it is much easier to have an SQL table to store the links you would like to use. The next thing to do is to have your back-end send you the list of links. With this, you can dynamically create the option tag and append it to your select tag. functions like newOptionTag.setAttribute('value', 'url'),document.createElement('option') and selectElement.appendChild(newOptionTag) should help you on your way
If you really want to use a seperate file, you could store the membernames and links in a json file. On document load get the file, parse it, then use the object to build the options.
The w3schools website (though frowned upon by some) has a json tutorial and an example that is already halfway there.
EDIT: I see it actually uses mysql to build the json file...
Hi guys i have a web site, there is a content I want let admin editing it "TEXT and pictures" without having to edit the code in order to add some topics,how i can do that i'm using ASP.net with c# is there to add a box like the box of inserting topic in stackoverflow
What you're saying is what a CMS (Content Management System) is for, and it seems that your website is just a simple website.
There's plenty of CMS options out there, since Wordpress (PHP) to the Umbraco (.NET) - plenty more on Google - and you need to shape your website into one of them, or, if you want to have the work... you need to develop your own system... add those textboxes and image selectors, save the choices to a database, and show the text and images from those saved choices...
best option is actually set up an empty CMS and replicate what you currently have, it's easier and you will get all from the start.
I'm looking to see if it's possible to block certain data in web parts from loading or showing for certain users?
I have a SharePoint page that was written in asp.net and JavaScript. What i have is a page that runs several queries and displays them as separate web parts. I would like to be able to block certain web parts that show financial information to only show for the managers group.
I am able to just hide the web part from showing at all but that isn't necessarily helpful.
any help at all would be greatly appreciated.
thank you!
I would create a hidden div that contains the users access level (or I guess you could use an array to hold / define unique users who should or shouldnt be able to to 'see' the parts)... then just write a function that reads the hidden field and based on the user who is viewing the page, show or hide the content based on the id of the web content element / part.
I would probably try to do this on the server side though before the content in question is sent to the dom.
good luck
A possible solution could be is to hide the webparts using audiences. Edit the page, edit the webpart, navigate to the properties, in the Advanced section you'll find something called "Target Audiences". Either use an existing audience (which you can create in the user profile service application) or enter a SharePoint group name (like the site members, of something alike 'managers'). Members of that group/audience will see the webpart then. Other users will not see the webpart.
Notice that this is not a security measurement. E.g. it's just preventing the rendering of the webpart, it's not preventing users from accessing the data if they know where it comes from.
