I am having a hard time releasing the owner of a posting when I am creating
the initial page.  I can release the owner on reedit, but I would also like
to have the option to release the owner when the page is first created.

I have created a class to handle this action and inherited from
AuthoringSaveNewAction.  I can succesfully include the option on my console
and I see it when I am creating a new page.  The problem I am having is that
the

protected override void PerformActionBehavior()

is never firing.  The one big difference between a new page and a reedit is
that you get the webform asking for a name.  I am wondering if that is not
causing me to be directed back to the base class causing me to miss the
event.

Any thoughts on how I can either fix this or debug the problem more
effectively?

Guy

That is exactly what I am doing, but since mine doesn't work I decided to
give yours a shot.  Same behavior.  If I put a breakpoint on the base.Text I
will see a break every time the page loads, so I know the class is being
accessed.  I also know this because I see the option in my admin console.
When I click the link I am taken to the page where I specify the posting
name.  The problem is my breakpoint at base.PerformActionBehavior() is never
hit.  Any idea what might cause this.  As I mentioned, it only happens
happens here and I don't know if it is because of the actionjavascript in
the base class that throws the "save as" dialog or what else it might be.

public class SaveNewandReleaseOwnership : AuthoringSaveNewAction

{

internal const string ID_FIELD_NEWPAGE_NAME = "WBC_fieldNewPageName";

internal const string ID_FIELD_NEWPAGE_DISPLAYNAME =
"WBC_fieldNewPageDisplayName";

public SaveNewandReleaseOwnership()

{

base.Text = "Save with Release Ownership";

}

protected override void PerformActionBehavior()

{

base.PerformActionBehavior();

PostingCollection pc =
CmsHttpContext.Current.Searches.UserPostingsInProduction();

foreach (Posting p in pc)

{

if (p.Parent.Path == CmsHttpContext.Current.Channel.Path)

{

if (p.Name == Page.Request.Form[ID_FIELD_NEWPAGE_NAME])

{

p.ReleaseOwnership();

CmsHttpContext.Current.CommitAll();

}

}

}

}

}

Hi Guy,

some customers have exensivly tested these console actions and run them in
their production environment - so these controls work fine.
Do you have a custom workflow implemented (custom events)?
If yes, please disable them and test again.

Cheers,
Stefan.
