Tools

You are currently browsing articles tagged Tools.

I have updated My Toolbox page with some more usefull productivity enhacning tools. A few highlights from the list:

Pixel Perfect

A Firebug extension that allows you to easily overlay a web composition (an image) on top of the developed HTML to see if you CSS is correct – Thanks for the top René!

Asterisk Key

Forgot a password? But it is there – hidden under asterisk in the password box. This tool extract the secrets for you!

Using the right tools makes you productive but there is so much tools and utilities out there so I like to spy on other people to see what tools they use so I also can try them.

Please share, if you have a tool that makes your life easier!

As you probably know EPiServer CMS 5 does not encrypt the export packages like version 4 did. You can open them easily and look inside by changing the extension to zip.

The export packages from EPiServer 4 is encrypted and sometimes when you try to import them in EPiServer 5 you get the most strange and non helping exception (like NullReferenceException). I had this problem and the only solution I could find was to crack the encryption of the export package so I could look inside and find the error.

Download the EPiServer 4 Export Package Decryption Tool

imageIf you have the same problem you can use the Decryption tool for EPiServer 4 Export Packages that I created.

The tool takes to parameters. The first should be the encrypted export package file. The second should be a non-existing filename ending with “.zip”.
