The Sitefinity team have released the start of a new Certification process. Currently the course and exam are free until August this year. There is just the one at present, Basic Developer, so I decided I would take it and see how it compared to the last Certification exam from Sitefinity.
If you are running your Sitefinity site on a shared hosting provider you may come across a troublesome error indicating that the available memory space is under 5% and your service can not be activated. This is a defensive measure by ASP.NET to help keep your system stable but what can you do about it?
Sitefinity offers some help string extensions. The best being TruncateString() allowing you to format those short summary sections on your pages.
In a recent internal build the Sitefinity team has added a new feature request allowing one to control the Vary By options for output caching. I wrote a post a while back talking about how to add this functionality in. But now, I am glad to say, this post is almost completely obsolete.
Sitefinity recommend setting Dynamic Compression Before Cache to true. So why then do they set it as false by default?
