Hi,I'm trying to pull the meta data (namely the 'dc:description' and 'dc:title') off of an DAM Asset:ResourceResolver resourceResolver = slingRequest.getResourceResolver(); Resource res = resourceResolver.getResource(imagePath); Asset asset = res.adaptTo(Asset.class); // this is empty: asset.getMetadataValue("dc:description") // this returns [Ljava.lang.Object;@4281a636 asset.getMetadata("dc:description").toString() // doing this returns all metadata, do I can see that dc:description does exist:asset.getMetadata()/* {dam:Progressive=no, dam:sha1=60dcef16fc38f6d96240bf91edd05f05608bf9fd, dam:Physicalwidthindpi=-1, stRef:instanceID=xmp.iid:D7BC5564CF9D11E2A8C9A7B002094D24, dam:MIMEtype=image/png, stRef:documentID=xmp.did:D7BC5565CF9D11E2A8C9A7B002094D24, dc:description=[Ljava.lang.Object;@4281a636, xmpMM:InstanceID=xmp.iid:D7BC5566CF9D11E2A8C9A7B002094D24, dam:Fileformat=PNG, tiff:ImageLength=114, dam:extracted=2014-01-23T10:00:12.333-08:00, dc:format=image/png, tiff:ImageWidth=114, xml:

We want to store some users in a different location to the default /home/usersWe also want to use the user manager to achieve this. How do we create a new user manager that has a different location for users eg /home/newlocation/users for example? Finally can we then use this new user manager when implementing the social features of cq 5.6. E.g can we tell the comments system to look for users using our new user manager? We would also want to keep the default user manager. 

Hi guys,I am using the Profile service and the UserManager factory, both of which have stopped working in the publisher in 5.6.1.Is there an alternative, or solution which will allow me to continue using it?My code below:public IGProfile getUserProfile(String authorizableId) { if (!StringUtils.isEmpty(authorizableId)) { try { /** * Do not close the resolver in this case as IGProfile needs to read the props from the * SessionAndResolver, normally we need to close the SessionAndResolver. */ final SessionAndResolver sessionAndResolver = rmanager.getCurrentOrCreateNew(); final ResourceResolver resolver = sessionAndResolver.getResolver(); final Authorizable auth = userManagerFactory.createUserManager(sessionAndResolver.getSession()).get(authorizableId); final Resource profileResource = resolver.getResource(auth.getHomePath() + "/profile"); if (profileResource != null) { return profileResource.adaptTo(IGProfile.class); } } catch (NoSuchAuthorizableException e) { LOG.info("No such user '{}'",

We have a set of components for which we are using editbars rather than rollovers for various UI reasons. On a single page we may have around 40 components with these editbars. In AEM 5.6.1 we are seeing a significant JS performance issue when switching from edit mode to preview mode, as well as a few other use cases. The core scripts are taking anywhere from 30 to 60s to run and often trigger the browser's "unresponsive script" warnings.Some profiling suggests that for the approximately 40 editbars, 1 call to WCM.hide is generating 217 calls to EditBar's hide (more than we have editable components), ~1,400 calls to WCM getNestedEditables, ~62,000 calls to up/findParentNode/findParent in Element.traversal.js, and ~783,000 calls to is/filter/byAttribute/isXml in DomQuery.js (and an associated ~791,000 calls to isArray in Ext.js).I was wondering if anyone else has run into similar issues with editbars? Is this a known problem or something new in the 5.6.x line? Or is it possible we are d

Hi,My Apache web server is fronting a CQ dispatcher that is rendering from a CQ Publish Instance on the server.  Everything works correctly until I try to put a .htpasswd in my Apache config to require user authentication before users can access my CQ Publish instance.  Whenever I browse to my site, I get an authentication prompt.  This behavior is expected.  I put the user credentials, as defined by my .htpasswd file and the prompt goes away.  However, I will get a second prompt with the following message"The server http://myserver:80 requires a username and password.  The server says: Sling (Development)."Regardless of which user credentials I use, authentication will fail and I get the first password prompt from my .htaccess file.I can see from my Apache's error log that the second authentication attempt was against a content in my CQ Publish instance's repository.  Why would this happen?  What is missing in my configuration?  If I remove .htaccess, I get no authentication prompts.P

Hello,I have an application in which I need pages acting like structural nodes to arrange the actual pages within a section. To avoid the performance issues with the 1000 child nodes.The structure is something like this:/Home    /section        /{YEAR} (blank page - just structure)            /{MONTH} (blank page - just structure)                /{ACTUAL_PAGE1} Should I create a blank page template for this blank nodes?Thanks in advance!

Hi experts!I would like to develop a component that renders some text and two images. I’m getting as a reference the ‘foundation/components/image’ component to render the images, using the ‘com.day.cq.wcm.foundation.Image’ class (see at [1]), like:… Image image = new Image(resource); … <% image.draw(out); %> …I can render my component with one image, and it works fine. But I don’t know how to add the second one.For the first image, I’ve added, in the compoment dialog, a ‘cq:Widget’ of xtype=’html5smartimage’ (as the ‘foundation/components/image’). For the second image, I should add a second html5smartimage widget, but the properties of both widgets will collide.I’ve tried to change the values of properties of the image (./imageCrop, ./filename, ./fileReference, etc.), adding a prefix (./imagenPrincipal/imageCrop, ./ imagenPrincipal/filename, ./ imagenPrincipal/fileReference, etc.). But then the image is not rendered, because the ./imagenPrincipal node in /content/… doesn’t contai

We have a requirement of pushing the CQ page to two different locations in publisher i.e.the page in CQ5 - content/site/page1 should be replicated to content/site-test/page1 and then to content/site/page1 in same publisher. We also dont want to create a copy of page1 in authoring i.e. we dont want to create content/site-test/page1 at Author to avoid duplicates at authoring instance.Is there a way (using APIs or otherwise), replicate a page in authoring on two different location (one usual default location at publisher and another one in a different root node).? We are using CQ 5.5ThanksAnand

Hi Experts, I have created a custommultifield which consist of checkbox, textfield and textarea. custommultifield can have maxitems 3.I am facing problem while accessing the value of checkbox from component jsp.I am doing this from jsp: <c:set var="checkBox" value="${properties.parsysValue}" scope="request"></c:set>/*check box*/<c:set var="learnmore" value="${properties.learnmore}" scope="request"></c:set>/*text field*/<c:set var="findlocation" value="${properties.findlocation}" scope="request"></c:set>/*Text area*/Whenever i do a add(+) in edit mode of component i get valkue's of textfield and textarea as a ARRAY and iterating over this array i could fetch the values for all three textfields and textarea. but this does not work with checkbox. i do not get an array of checkboxes. What i get is the string value of checkbox that is checked.Even I changed checkbox to select(dropdown) but the problem that I face now is that dropdown does not retain value

Does anyone have info or insight into the new version of AEM 6, to be released this year at some point? I'm only aware of back-end changes, as described here: http://www.pro-vision.de/content/medialib/pro-vision/production/adaptto/2013/adaptto2013-oak-for-users-michael-marth-pdf/_jcr_content/renditions/rendition.file/adaptto2013-oak-for-users-michael-marth.pdf

In CQ 5.61 I have to create a workflow where three different participants have to approve something (in parallel) to advance to the next step. If any of them don't take an action after some time the workflow have to continue.So what I did was: add an 'And Split' step with three branches, each branch has a participant step and those participant steps has configure 'Auto Advance' as timeout handler with an specific time (for example 1h).The problem is that CQ execute the timeout handler only in the last branch, but not in the first two. So if none of them take an action only the third participant step advance but not the others.Is this a bug in CQ? and, is there any other way to implement that use case?Thanks, Claudio.

HiI have  a component which use to display all the node detail in a specific folder.  But there is some problem when a pass a <%=variable%> to cq:include.  When I read the source using firefox.  It seems it can not read the jsp variable  correctly.  Please help.Below is the source from firefox when I open the page.   cqinclude seems cannot understand <%=noticeName%> is a jsp variable.  It just print it out as it is.<li id="notice-board-item-12" class="alphabet-a"><div class="parbase notice"><h1><div><span class="cq-text-placeholder-ipe">¶</span></div></h1><h2><div><span class="cq-text-placeholder-ipe">¶</span></div></h2><img src="/libs/cq/linkchecker/resources/linkcheck_o.gif" alt="invalid link: <div><span class=" title="invalid link: <div><span class=" border="0">More<img src="/libs/cq/linkchecker/resources/linkcheck_c.gif

Hi all, Any design directions/pointers on how to build a anonymous "like" kind of a component on CQ. I see that voting component does similar but requires authenticated user and also 1 vote per user. I have been looking at the code/design of these out-of-the-box social components but some directions from the group will be of great help.  One of the simple thought is to see if I can have a Like component whose POST increments a node property by 1 and displays the results, but the negative I see is to make this work on a multi-publisher.  Appreciate any thoughts/experiences.Also if you know of any component available on the package share/other libraries which could potentially meet this use case?Thanks!

Is there a posibillity to define which components are allowed to place into the Page ? I mean that i could define in the sourcecode of the template, which components the user can use so that i dont have to use anymore the design mode and the Paragraph System for that.

Is there anyway to set the wcmmode specific to a group or user?  Basically have a user that their wcmmode is always disabled so they can preview the site but not edit it?  but still have other users as content authors that can make edits?

Hi,I want to generate a SiteMap related with the user's privileges. Then, I have thought to check the privileges of each page (they will change in order to the user logged) and performance an action depending the privilege. I don't know why my code is throwing AccessControlManager throws a PathNotFoundException. Any idea?To clarify: the first time that I call the AccessControlManager, it works as expected. The second time (inside buildSiteMap function), it throws the exception. Here is my JSP:<%@include file="/libs/foundation/global.jsp"%><%@page session="false"%><%@taglib prefix="sling" uri="http://sling.apache.org/taglibs/sling/1.0"%><sling:defineObjects/><%@ page contentType="text/html;charset=UTF-8" %><%@page import="java.lang.Math,                 java.lang.Integer,                 java.util.Iterator,                com.day.text.Text,                 com.day.cq.wcm.api.PageFilter,                 com.day.cq.wcm.api.Page,                com.day.cq.w

Been getting a lot of unclosed sessions in our jcr logs (using 5.4) and our publish servers have stopped responding a couple of times recently when hit with a burst of lame php hack attempts. The speed of them is what I think is doing us in, in combination with the session errors in particular, but also with some component errors we're getting as well. There was a heap error reported that took one of them down most recently. Am in the process of cleaning all that up (sessions, components) but was hoping for some insight on which is the more likely culprit in the downtime. Have blocked php requests at apache now, but was also wondering if there is any other mitigation in CQ that could/should be active. Will be reviewing the security docs again in the meantime as well.

Hi there, we are designing a new website (abc.com) which needs to provide multi language capabilities as well as share some content with another unrelated website (xyz.com), both running on CQ5. The current idea is that we would use Multi Site Manager for both requirements. So we would set up a blueprint (master site) for abc.com with multiple live copies for the different languages. The users would never directly access the blueprint but only the individual language specific live copies.For content sharing with xyz.com, it has been suggested to also use MSM, but just for the pages in question. As I am not an expert on CQ5 and/or MSM, I would like to know the following:1. Is it possible for one site (consisting of multiple pages) to refer to multiple blueprints ? My understanding is that this is possible as long as no single asset (i.e. page) refers to more than one bluprint. So page 1 in abc.com/en-us could be a livecopy of the master blueprint of abc.com while page abc.com/common/sha
