Ignore sub-item structure and link directly to an article in sitecore
In response to a forum post in SDN http://sdn.sitecore.net/SDN5/Forum/ShowPost.aspx?PostID=38809 , I thought I would blog about this because it is quite a common situation. (Tested on V 6.5)
Let’s assume you have a huge collection of items that needs to be segregated into sub-folders because of sheer volume. You may still want to have the URL to the articles accessible via a more direct link (which ignores the sub-directory structure). This post highlights one method of achieving this in the Sitecore .NET CMS.
Customise EviBlog for sitecore
There is a nifty new blogging module for sitecore called EviBlog (now known as WeBlog) for sitecore, it can be found in the shared source library. The content of this post is relevant for anyone that wants to customise EviBlog to suit their needs. Edit: the WeBlog source has changed since the release of this post but the concepts are still very much relevant to the current implementation.
Get sitecore items as XML Hierarchy
Fetch a hierarchy of sitecore items as an XmlDocument. I have assumed that we are only interested in three item properties for this example: ‘id’, ‘name’ and ‘link’’. This can be useful if you want to generate lightweight XML that is free of the overhead of all item metadata and fields that you are not interested in using.
