How to implement Cross-Site In-Session Sitecore Analytics

Image
I came across this weird scenario wherein we were migrating old legacy project coded in Vb.net into Sitecore. So during this process, we had to migrate in a prioritized manner which made difficult to share analytics across two different projects. So I have just noted down what I did in order to accomplish the same. Assume we have a scenario with two different projects which are utilized for same Website (Some pages in Sitecore and Some pages in any other framework ). Let's Assume Sitecore Project named as " CodeYourWaySitecore " and other project named as  " CodeYourWayLegacy " For  CodeYourWaySitecore  and  CodeYourWayLegacy  (“ CodeYourWayLegacy.demo.com ” and “ CodeYourWayLegacy.demo.com ”)  are hosted on different websites.   By default in session, analytics work for each individual site.  Identifying and merging contacts at the end of the session allows for post-session interactions(assuming the contacts have been identified) but does nothing to add

Some of the time-saving tips every AngularJS user should know !! - Part 1

Image
Having worked on and with AngularJS for short period thou , here are some of the time-saving tips at the top of my mind , Just go ahead and comment out if you find it wrong or if you have any : At a high / architecture level: 1)   Write your tests ! - Stop, right now.I mean it !!!. ;)  Don't Ever go by this Saying !!! You can never be 100% right Always write your unit tests. In Javascript, you don't have the compiler to hand hold you and tell  you did something wrong.  And you will want to pull your hair out the next time your app is broken because of a missing letter.And the larger your application gets, having the comfort of making large scale changes and refactorings without worrying about broken functionality is amazing! And writing your unit tests is the only way to get there! 2)   Don't put too many things on the scope .  The scope is expensive, as it is the one that undergoes dirty checks. Just put exactly what will be displayed on the UI

First Android N Preview Update is Available

Image
Andoid N Preview The first update for the  Android N  preview is now available. For now, the update is available through new factory images, but should be rolling out over-the-air (OTA) before long, if it isn’t already, I would imagine. The updates are showing up for the Nexus 5X and Nexus 6P as build NPC56W, while the Nexus 9 is getting NPC56X. The rest of the Nexus line-up isn’t seeing new files just yet.  Android N Preview Part 1 You can grab the new factory images at the links below: Nexus 5X  (56P to 56W) Nexus 6P  (56P to 56W) Nexus 9  (56P to 56X) Nexus 9 LTE  (56P to 56X) Instructions for flashing factory images found  here . Android N Preview Part 2 We don’t know what is included in the update, but this isn’t still a part of preview 1. Our assumption is that this update may reduce some bugs and potentially help performance a bit. UPDATE :  You can also check out interesting Videos in my video collections here  Video Blog

How to : Flash Nexus Factory Images

Part of the beauty of owning a Nexus device comes through the regular availability of factory images that can be used to return the device to a factory state. If you root, toss on a ROM, and tinker a bit too much, you may find yourself looking for a last resort to save your phone. A factory image can do that.Think of a factory image as stock, out-of-the-box software for your device. Nexus 5 Boot Loader  Google has been pretty good over the years at making these image files available shortly after they release a new update or version of Android. That situation hasn’t changed with the release of Kit Kat (Android 4.4) or the  Nexus 5 , as Google has already made the N5’s factory images available.  So for those of you who plan to get dirty with your Nexus and may need a savior down the road, we thought we’d make sure you know how to flash .img files to your Nexus 5. The process isn’t difficult, but does require a few adb and fastboot commands. But you are up for that, right? NOTE:  T
