So, I came across a situation where I had to provide only selected options for a list field type(Multilist/Droplist etc) based on some conditions. Although this was not a hard requirement and mere mapping of a parent item was acceptable, I’m more of a fan of “build code that is designed for Operations” as IContinue reading “Sitecore – Ways to configure a list field’s source”

Sitecore – Item as a Resource – Deep Dive -1 – IaaR Plugin

Sitecore – Segments and Segmented List
In my last article, while concluding I mentioned that we can create lists for male 18-30; 30-40 and 40 & above, use them relevant campaigns.

Sitecore – What is that {webroot}/App_Data/items/****.dat ??
