Web site not loading after upgrading to Kentico 11, class removed

Web Master asked on April 18, 2018 10:04

Hi all,

I upgraded my web site to K11 but the web site won't load, I have a bunch of errors in VS and I am seeking help.

Here is there Kentico 11 codeupgrade result:

Util.cs";"286";"44";"Class CMS.DocumentEngine.TreeHelper was removed. You can use class CMS.DocumentEngine.DocumentQuery instead.";"CMS.DocumentEngine.TreeNode node = TreeHelper.SelectSingleNode(AliasPath);"

And here is my code:

public static bool DoesNodeExist(string AliasPath)
{
    bool _result = false;

    UserInfo ui = MembershipContext.AuthenticatedUser;

    //TreeProvider tree = new TreeProvider(ui);
    CMS.DocumentEngine.TreeNode node = TreeHelper.SelectSingleNode(AliasPath);
    if (node != null)
    {
        _result = true;
    }
    return _result;
}

What should I do to fix the issue? Thank you very much for your help.

Hi Mark,

you need to include System.Linq for FirstOrDefault in code.

Or use code like this :

 public static bool DoesNodeExist(string AliasPath)
    {
    bool _result = false;

    UserInfo ui = MembershipContext.AuthenticatedUser;

    //TreeProvider tree = new TreeProvider(ui);
    var nodes = DocumentHelper.GetDocuments().Column(nameof(TreeNode.NodeAliasPath)).WhereEquals(nameof(TreeNode.NodeAliasPath), "blabla");
    TreeNode node = null;
    if (nodes != null && nodes.Count > 0)
    {
        node = nodes.FirstObject;
    }

    if (node != null)
    {
        _result = true;
    }
    return _result;
}

I hope this will help you Best regards

Hi Mark,

You facing an issue due to class CMS.DocumentEngine.TreeHelper removed in kentico 11 instead of using CMS.DocumentEngine.TreeHelper use this CMS.DocumentEngine.DocumentQuery.

For more API change log refer this URL https://devnet.kentico.com/documentation/api-changes/kentico-11

You can search here for classes removed in Kentico 11.

Note: During any kentico upgrade if you implement custom code logic you must need to update it with new alternative solution.

Thanks

Happy to help you

Hi Mark,

you can try something like this

public static bool DoesNodeExist(string AliasPath)
    {
        bool _result = false;

    UserInfo ui = MembershipContext.AuthenticatedUser;

    CMS.DocumentEngine.TreeNode node = DocumentHelper.GetDocuments().WhereEquals("NodeAliasPath", AliasPath).FirstOrDefault();
    if (node != null)
    {
        _result = true;
    }
    return _result;
}

Also, it will be much better if you set which columns to return, this will speed up this query.

DocumentHelper.GetDocuments().Column("NodeAliasPath").WhereEquals("NodeAliasPath", AliasPath).FirstOrDefault();
