HTTP Post Driving  You Postal

HTTP Post Driving You Postal?

The other day I was looking for a way to handle a common dilemma with MVC forms and Sitecore. It goes like this: Put an “Add To Favorites” button in the page header and an email subscription form in the footer. Both do form posts. If the developer uses a common MVC form technique (reusing the action name, just decorating [HttpGet] or [HttpPost]) then both forms get submitted. Sign up for the newsletter and voila, you’ve favorited the page! Whoops. This is because the HTTP post verb is global to the page request.

Parameter Personalization

Ever need to personalize Sitecore rendering parameters? Sitecore's conditional renderings allow you to override the datasource and/or the component. However we often run into the need to override rendering parameters too. It may be the desire to simply change a color that is specified as a component property. Or it may be something more critical like what I ran into last week with Sitecore Experience Accelerator (SXA). SXA has a mechanism called rendering variants. This is very cool for reusable components, such as Page Content.
