ChatterBINGO is Now Open-Source

July 3, 2014 by David Schach Leave a Comment

A sample ChatterBINGO card

At Dreamforce 2010, I had the honor of writing the only (to date) community-contributed app to the Dreamforce org: Chatter BINGO.
It has been in an AppExchange listing for a while, in an unmanaged package, but I decided to open it up on GitHub to see if anyone wants to make updates/improvements.

Chatter Publisher Actions (Part 2): Object Custom Action

July 15, 2013 by David Schach 12 Comments

In the previous post, we looked at using the standard (button-click) way to create a new child record using Publisher Actions. Pretty basic stuff. Using Visualforce to create a custom action is a bit harder. Let's start with the documentation. The PDF provided by clicking on the link in the Actions screen (Account action is […]

PageReference Best Practice

May 5, 2011 by David Schach 2 Comments

I've seen a lot of coders put the following into their custom Visualforce controllers:
Java
1
2
3
4
5
6
7
8
9
10
public PageReference customsave() {
    try{
        insert acct;
    } catch (DMLException e) {
        /*do stuff here*/
    }
    PageReference acctPage = new PageReference ('/' + acct.id};
    acctPage.setRedirect(true);
    return acctPage;
}
I've decided that I don't like this approach. It feels too much like a URL hack, and though I'm sure that it will always work (meaning that salesforce.com will never change its way of referring to a record by
Java
1
/<recordID>
), […]

Visualforce Inline Editing – I’m In Love

February 28, 2011 by David Schach 4 Comments

I’m totally addicted to the new Visualforce inline editing feature. It all started with this post by Josh Birk at Developerforce. I liked it, but as a “standardstylesheets” specialist, I wanted a bit more. Then I looked at the Visualforce apex:inlineEditSupport documentation, and I was hooked. Okay, so you’re probably wondering why this is so […]
