Sharepoint designer doesn't show all fields of current item in workflow - sharepoint-2013

When creating a workflow using Sharepoint Designer (linked to a form library) none of my fields from my form show up when I use actions like "set field in current item" or "update list item". The only two fields that show are
"Title"
"Name (for use in forms)"
I have already tried to upload the form as a site content type but was still not able to get the items on my form (using the solution posted here https://social.msdn.microsoft.com/Forums/lync/en-US/37db5742-79ba-49cb-bda5-69172786a339/spd-field-lookup-problem-set-field-in-current-item?forum=sharepointcustomizationlegacy)
please help me ,this problem is hurting my brain :'(

at first it seemed like it was not working but I just had to refresh the page -very intelligent mistake :'(
Anyways I'm happy that the problem was solved

This is something which is related to the Refresh a page. Or What you can do is close the site in the Sharepoint designer and then re connect the site. Sometimes refreshing the page does not seem to work.

Hybris ProductListPage does not find category

here is my question. I have one ProductListPage where I want to display a single product. I have a simple Product catalog with one category "TestCategory" and one product assigned to it "TestProduct". What I want is just to display the product in my Product List Page.
However, when I access the Product List Page, there is a message stating:
Category with code 'TestCategory' not found! (Active session catalogversions: ProductTestCatalog.staged, ContentTestCatalog.staged)
Both content and product catalogs are synched and everythings seems fine. I started an indexer operation wizard and it was successful, but nothing has changed, I keep getting this message, even though the category is existing - it even comes with the name "TestCategory not found" What should I do to find it?Can you provide any ideas or solution to this problem? Maybe the problem is in my Solr Configuraiton? If yes, any ideas how to fix it will be highly appreciated. Thanks! :))
The ProductDetails Page in the hybris Accelerator does not use SOLR so it is unlikely to be that.
The error suggests that the category TestCategory is not visible to the current user in the current session.
The Active Session catalogVersions should show Online catalogs only unless you are in Preview/LiveEdit. So this suggests something is wrong.
You should try to understand the SearchRestrictions in the Session.

Listing multiple Redmine issues by Id

I am working on some custom Redmine reports. In the generated report, there are numbers that represent things like "number of issues moved to Development during Q3 2013". The report generator knows the issue id of every issue that matches that criteria.
Is there a way to construct a Redmine URL that shows a list of all issues given a list of issue ids? For example, something like (this doesn't actually work):
http://redmine/projects/example/issues?ids=1234,1239,1245
This is similar to existing feature requests such as http://www.redmine.org/issues/10828 but I'm looking for the user-facing HTML version, not an API function. The idea is to allow the user viewing the report to click on the number and to see the corresponding list of issues.
The solution I ended up with was to include the list of issues in a <div> for each number in the report that the user could click on. Then, when the user clicks on a number, the corresponding <div> is displayed using a jQuery UI dialog.
This is not the same as using the Redmine issue list screen to show the issues. However, for this purpose it works well enough.
No, this is not implemented. But for me it should never be necessary in the Gui.
My Solution would be : Build the adequate query. Eventually this will need the addition of a field in Redmine and backporting the information from your tool to Redmine. Generally the need for this feature shows your bug tracker lacks some information that he should track.

New to Django. How to incorporate "Add more" button in the form

I'm new to python and the Django framework. I am dealing with lots of forms in my application which is half way developed by the person working in this position earlier. I now need to change the form to incorporate the "Add additional details" button to my existing form.
Can anyone help me out with this? Do let me know in case you need any additional information from my end.
I suggest you read the Forms documentation: https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/dev/topics/forms/?from=olddocs
I don't really understand what you mean by "Add additional details". I'm assuming you want to just add additional items to your form.py of your app, be it model data? Again read the doc's they really helped me.
Is the form using an (inline) formset?
You need to use javascript or jQuery to insert a new set of fields into the web page. The formset management values need to be updated as well.

Sitecore Broken Links and Content Editor Issues

We've been noticing an increase in number of broken links on our sitecore website.
Some it is due to
User Training
Publishing Issues (linked page is not yet published)
Maybe content editor issues
It's been hard to verify some of these but sometimes the link might have the authoring page URL (which means someone didn't follow the SOP), sometimes they have a strange url like /shell/Content Editor/...
So we are trying to proactively fix these before the pages go live.
I had a couple ideas like writing a Handler that would look through all "Rich Text Fields" and looking for inconsistencies (like authoring server URL). Also using a crawler-type of validator could help us (http://home.snafu.de/tilman/xenulink.html#Description) but we were wondering what the community was doing to address this issue.
The "internal link checker" usually works well but doesn't detect many of this erroneous setups (as I believe it sees them as 'external links').
Your input is greatly appreciated!
If you have RichText fields and create internal links, your internal link looks like this in the HTML view: "a href="~/link.aspx?_id=EB3AD128E7BF4F3C9F3812F701D7724E&_z=z" and when you hover with your mouse over it, is show "/Sitecore/Shell/Controls/Rich Text Editor/" before the ~/link.aspx. This is normal behavior. This link is modified to a normal link during rendering of the RTE field.
However, be sure to use the Sitecore controls like to render these RTE fields and to render links. Also using sc:fld() in XSLT instead of sc:field() can create strange links because sc:fld is rendering the raw value of the field.
In all of the Sitecore projects I have been working on, I didn't have much issues with broken links.
There is a known bug with copy-pasting links from a rich text editor, where path info is appended to the link (generating the /shell/Content Editor/ stuff).
Sitecore have a fix for it here:
http://sdn.sitecore.net/Products/Sitecore%20V5/Sitecore%20CMS%206/ReleaseNotes/KnownIssues%20Recommended/Copying%20and%20pasting%20link%20in%20rt%20fields%20may%20break%20the%20link.aspx
I would suggest a new Validation Action added to the workflow command before the items are finalized. Then you could actively stop them from being published and give immediate feedback. If you're not using workflows, you could add a new item level validator, but those often get ignored in my experience -- too many false positives on the existing validators.

Facebook comments plugin not displaying moderation link

I'm using the Facebook comments box plugin..I have many pages with different get urls (example.com/id.php?id=1,example.com/id.php?id=2), and I'm attempting to give each its own seperate comments box. Everything is working fine except I get a warning telling me to add the href to the like button so I did. The only problem is, now a moderation link doesn't even appear..Here's code
" href="example.com/example.php?id="> ...I also included all meta tags I'm 100% sure..
I figured out the problem..Basically, if the page requires a login of some sort to view the contents, Facebook's bots don't have access to the meta tags.Therefore, you should add the meta tags to the page that a non-logged in user would see..This really caused me trouble and I hope this helps someone!
