Rally custom dropdown to multiSelect - drop-down-menu

We have a custom drop down and need to make it a multiSelect. Your answer gives me hope but so far, I have not figured out how this can be done. I played around how to build custom grids using JavaScript. Is it possible to make an existing custom drop-down list to a multiSelect? If it is, can be it used in the existing Rally screens or do we have to use interactive grids to be able to update the field?
Please advice on how this can be achieved.
Thank you, Rajani.

A custom dropdown cannot be turned into a custom multiselect. There are no custom fileds in Rally of mulitselect type. You may write a custom app using AppSDK2 with a MultiObjectPicker
For example, here is a rallymutiobjectpicker that allows selection of multiple testsets:
this._testSetPicker = Ext.create('Rally.ui.picker.MultiObjectPicker', {
itemId:'testsetpicker',
modelType: 'testset'
});
Later you may use _getRecordValue() to get the array of selected records:
var selectedTestSets = this._testSetPicker._getRecordValue();
A custom grid and a custom html app are not the same.
A UI component created with AppSDK2 cannot be added to a custom grid, and cannot be added to existing Rally pages, e.g. a Defect or User Story details page, or any summary page.
The MultiObjectPicker can only be used in a custom code that you write and then copy your deployment html and paste it into a custom html page.

Dynamics CRM - Custom development

I'm completely new to the Dynamics CRM environment.
Within our current implementation, there is a grid which displays a list of current sales opportunities. Within this grid, there is a column for the user which is a link to another part of Dynamics. We want to instead be able to open a new window to another system. How can I customize how that link gets rendered out so that the client "onclick" function can link to a javascript function which will open a new window with the URL we need?
Please see attached:
Snapshot of Dynamics grid
Im afraid that this is not possible with supported customization.
My understanding is that you will keep URL to external system on entity and you would like to be able to open with single click from grid displaying this record?
However, Im not sure if you add this fields as single line of text with format option URL won`t work as expected. If this does not work, you would need a custom grid to display this data.
You can store url in text field with format URL, click on such field will open link in new window/tab.

How to load custom post data into a sidebar using ajax?

I have a list of custom posts, and I want to have a sidebar, wherein the information associated with a post selected from the list to load.
If you insist on using ajax to do this then you will need an API for your WordPress site to call back into. Take a look at http://wp-api.org/. It won't necessarily be easy, but you should be able to get it setup and running and then put a piece of JavaScript in a widget to make the call and display the data.
Be careful, that plugin is under active development.
IMO, it would be easier to do this without ajax. Off the top of my head I would say that you could define a shorttag in your functions.php file and then put it in your widget. If the widget appears on a page with a post, pick up the post id, fetch the meta data, and display it.
Cheers!

How to add custom forms in FullCalendar?

I have created forms in HTML (shown image below), and I want to integrate this form in FullCalendar. This form will show when I wanted to add new event. Can you give me some idea? If possible, can I do this without modifying the plugin?
You could put the form in a lightbox and show it, when the user clicks on a day. Fullcalendar provides an event for this: http://arshaw.com/fullcalendar/docs/mouse/dayClick/
Edit: Or what exactly do you mean by integrate?

add Widgets from Backend without editing XML

Is there any possibility in Magento to add a "widget" to the sidebar, using the backend only – without editing XML. I'd like to provide that function to a customer, who may add blocks/widgets to the sidebar similar like how it's possible using Wordpress.
Or did I have a false concept in mind of what widgets are in Magento?
You can add widget to any static page/block. See this tutorial: http://www.siteground.com/tutorials/magento/magento_widgets.htm

Sitefinity 4 attach user control to page on creation

I'm using Sitefinity 4.2. I have created a masterpage, with content placeholders, which I am using as a template when creating a new page. I then have several different custom user controls, which I drop into the different placeholders, and set the parameters for them through the control edit forms. This standard scenario works fine.
As our end users are not very sophisticated, I would like to create a new scenario in which, when a new page is created via the admin console on the basis of my masterpage, different controls are programmatically inserted into the various placeholders, and values for control properties are set. All the end user then has to do is to tweak the property values on one or two controls, and he's done.
Any ideas on how I would go about doing this?
For what you're describing, I'd suggest utilizing page templates. You can specify a master page to use and also drop widgets in to the placeholders you've established. Users can then create new pages based off of this template and your settings will carry over.
Widgets that you configure in a template can't be modified outside of it so you'll want to leave any that the user should be able to change, from the page editor, out.
You can create a page template by going to Design->Page Templates in the admin section.
