Deleting Unwanted Chatter Feeds, An Administrative Tip

Hi

I am working on some things on my sandbox. There are system generated chatter feed published all over my page. It is not letting me delete when move my mouse over, so much for the system administrator profile  :).

I started searching for answers, But I saw ideas not solutions. I thought of putting it here the workaround I did for myself.

There are couple of ways and they are simple.

Solution 1:
Logon to workbench, https://workbench.developerforce.com/login.php
allow access.
Go to SOQL Query, select UserFeed object.
It lists out all the fields, select the ones u want to see, ID, Body, type etc.,

Execute the query.

See the result and when u move the mouse onto the id, u can delete the records from the object.

Solution 2:
your name>>developer console.
There opens up a console window, it has all the tabs like Logs, Heap dumps,...,"Query Editor".
Click on Query Editor, U can write an SOQL statement and execute it.
Select a row from the query result and "delete row"

Job Done.

u can do it for all other salesforce objects.

Lightning spinner inside Button

I just came across this idea when I looked at some of the standard components by salesforce, for some reason they look way cooler. I thought of sharing this with you... We many a times try to use the spinner different ways, like, on the entire component, by blurring the whole area out, when I compare salesforce's components, they don't ALWAYS do that, they just show the spinner somewhere at the bottom/ top or just next to the button or disabling / replacing the button etc... Well, when I cracked it, it looked amazing. here is a simple component: <aura:component > <aura:attribute name="boooo" type="boolean" default="false"/> <lightning:buttonGroup> <lightning:buttonIcon iconName="utility:email" variant="brand" disabled="{!v.boooo}" onclick="{! c.handleClick }" alternativeText="Click to send Email" /> <lightning:button variant="brand" title...

Passing URL parameters to controller in Lightning components/ AURA

Image
The following example helps you understand how to pass parameters from URL to components. In AURA/ Salesforce1 platform, it is made easy to pass the parameters to the controllers. We know that we can create attributes in the components as variables and they are meant for the scope of the components. So we create application attributes for the entire scope of application. So when we need to get the values from the URL, it is easy to pass them to application attributes, in other words, application attributes can take the values from URL directly. Here is a simple example: 1. Create an application - 'URLApp' 2. Create an attribute in the application XML. <aura:application> <aura:attribute name="fromURL" type="String" default="this is default value"/> Value in Attribute: {!v.fromURL}! </aura:application> Save the XML and run it, your output should be: Now, If you just pass a value to the url the...
