Publishing Page Drafts Systematically

Posted by Community Admin on 02-Nov-2011 00:00

Hi,
I have a question about systematically publishing page drafts. I have the following code (which runs only when the app is first started):


PageManager pageManager = PageManager.GetManager();

App.WorkWith().Pages().LocatedIn(Telerik.Sitefinity.Fluent.Pages.PageLocation.Frontend)

.ThatAreDrafts()

.ForEach(dr =>


List<PageData> drafts = pageManager

.GetPageDataList()

.Where(

pd => pd.Status == Telerik.Sitefinity.GenericContent.Model.ContentLifecycleStatus.Live)

.ToList();

drafts.ForEach(dp =>

pageManager.PublishPageDraft(dp.Id, true);

pageManager.SaveChanges();

);

//ends ForEeach body on Page Drafts

);

I'm trying to publish all frontend pages that are saved as drafts, since I have several methods which I call to systematically set other page data (require ssl on pages, set head tag content, page title i.e.), so I wanted to ensure that all pages were published before making those changes.

However, I get the following error:

You are trying to access item that no longer exists. The most probable reason is that it has been deleted by another user.

Exception Details: Telerik.Sitefinity.SitefinityExceptions.ItemNotFoundException: You are trying to access item that no longer exists. The most probable reason

is that it has been deleted by another user.

Line 63: drafts.ForEach(dp =>

Line 64:

Line 65: pageManager.PublishPageDraft(dp.Id, true);

Line 66: pageManager.SaveChanges();

Line 67: );

Just thought I would note, I did try this first:

App.WorkWith().Pages().LocatedIn(Telerik.Sitefinity.Fluent.Pages.PageLocation.Frontend)
.ThatAreDrafts().Publish();


Also, I am impersonating a user with:

User user = UserManager.GetManager().GetUser("admin");
SitefinityPrincipal principal = new SitefinityPrincipal(new UserIdentity(user));
Thread.CurrentPrincipal = principal;

HttpContext.Current.User = principal;

Hi Todd,

Please try using the below sample, it will take all draft pages and publish them accordingly:

var pageManager = PageManager.GetManager();

var pages = pageManager.GetPageNodes().Where(p => p.Page != null && p.Page.Status != Telerik.Sitefinity.GenericContent.Model.ContentLifecycleStatus.Live).ToList();

foreach (var pD in pages)

var draft = pageManager.EditPage(pD.Page.Id);

var master = pageManager.PagesLifecycle.CheckOut(draft);

if (master != null)

master = pageManager.PagesLifecycle.CheckIn(master);

pageManager.PagesLifecycle.Publish(master);

pageManager.SaveChanges();

WorkflowManager.MessageWorkflow(pD.Id, typeof(PageNode), null, "Publish", false, new Dictionary<string, string>());

If there's anything else we can help you, please let us know.

All the best,
