Fix Orchard Module Installation
Fix Orchard Module Installation
I have had several issues with Orchard Module installations, one is the, "Twitter module", which adds a field to the login page, and if you have NGM.OpenAuthentication installed it includes a twitter logon which is a duplicate twitter entry, and gives a error.
I was going to try this again and because this duplicate entry happen once before and I was ready with a database backup.
I backed up the files from, "App_Data", folder of cached.dat and, "App_data/dependencies", folder of dependencies.xml and dependencies.compiled.xml.
Installed again the Twitter Module and it did the same thing, So ran the backup of the database and copied over the old dependencies.compiled.xml, dependencies.xml and cache.dat. The deleated the Twitter/module.txt file and everything was back to normal. Then when everything was back to normal, I deleated the Twitter module folder.
Use all social media and buttons by adding them in the html module and vandaley classy module at: http://orchardproject.net/gallery10/List/Modules/Orchard.Module.Vandelay.Industries, to include the .css and .js. Examples are all my social's as linkedin, facebook, google +1 and friend connect. My Twitter with @anywhere and web intents is added to the Latest Twitter Module, you can get instructions on the twitter module at: http://blog.maartenballiauw.be/post/2011/01/21/Writing-an-Orchard-widget-LatestTwitter.aspx, and then I will be posting about how to add @anywhere and web intents with a tweet box, login-out button with a neat follow me button, as displayed to the right of this post.
"Use the html module, with the vandaley classy module for as much as you can and keep your Orchard installation light."
