Social Bookmarking - remove string

I'm trying to find the webpart you are using, it doesn't seem to be part of the default Kentico (at least not 10). What version are you on, and what is the file location so i can take a look?

We are on v8.2. The file is located in CMSWebParts/CommunityServices/SocialBookmarking.ascx.cs

Thanks Sarah, now i've found it (it was in a slightly different spot though, but hopefully the code is the same).

See if you can find this line of code:

string liveUrl = RequestContext.CurrentURL;
liveUrl = URLHelper.GetAbsoluteUrl(liveUrl);

Add two more line to it so it looks like this:

string liveUrl = RequestContext.CurrentURL;
liveUrl = URLHelper.GetAbsoluteUrl(liveUrl);
string token = "mkt_tok=" + URLHelper.GetUrlParameter(liveUrl, "mkt_tok");
liveUrl = liveUrl.Replace("?" + token + "&", "?").Replace("&" + token, "").Replace("?" + token, ""); // Handles removing JUST that parameter, without messing up other tokens.

Seems a little overkill, but this will remove JUST that token, in case other pages need the Urls (like bookmarking the 2nd page of a listing where ?page=2 is in the url and needed.

Tell me if that works!

Thank you! I implemented the code but it's still populating the string ...here's what the code looks like:

Let's see if this is even the correct spot then. Just for a moment (change, check the link, then undo it) add the following line, i want to see if this is even the right spot:

liveUrl = "Test_"+token;

Tell me if the URL changes to Test, and then also compare the token value and the url value, can you post that back here? After you run the test, be sure to remove that line though :)

Still no dice. The token didn't change to test. This is what the URL looks like:

Then we're barkign up the wrong tree. Can check to make sure we're looking at the right file? Check the page template and look at the webpart, then look up that web part and in the general tab see where the webpart's ASCX file is. Is that the one you are modifying?

We're definitely in the right file. ~/CMSWebParts/SocialMedia/SocialBookmarking.ascx.cs

Can you copy your entire ascx.cs file to pastebin.com and link me to it so i can take a look?

I have no idea how to use PasteBin. Does this work?

Doesn't make any sense to me why the liveUrl = "Test_"+token; at the end of the code wouldn't result in the URL changing, for the time being though to get you going, let's just remove any URL Parameters:

// Get url of current document
            string liveUrl = RequestContext.CurrentURL;
            liveUrl = URLHelper.GetAbsoluteUrl(liveUrl);
            liveUrl = liveUrl.Split('?')[0];
            //string token = "mkt_tok=" + URLHelper.GetUrlParameter(liveUrl, "mkt_tok");
            //liveUrl = liveUrl.Replace("?" + token + "&", "?").Replace("&" + token, "").Replace("?" + token, ""); // Handles removing JUST that parameter, without messing up other tokens.

Try that code there in place of the stuff we were working with, i'm just removing any url parameters ta all, tell me if that works, make sure to clear the cache as well (system-> Clear cache)

I hate to say it, but still no dice. :( Cleared the cache and tried a few different browsers too.

I really don't think then that this is the code that's running. Last test of that is to cut out ALL hte text in that .cs file (copy it to a notepad), and see if an error appears. If the link still renders, then at that point obvious this is the not the file we are looking for.
