Hi Tim,
Very cool tool!
How does the item comparer work on field level? Does it just compare the raw value or does it support multiple field types? How about custom fields?
Cheers

Hi Jens, thanks for the comment!
You’re right, the item comparer would compare against the raw values. If the raw values are different it will be flagged and shown in the field comparer. This is true if the value is or is not a Sitecore item id. What the item comparer doesn’t do is take the values from say a multilist field and compare those item’s fields to its counterpart in the target database. This can be done, and added to the list of validations which are easily configurable.
I’m in the process of making a followup blog post that will talk about how to create your own validations. I should have this out by early next week.
Stay tuned
Tim
Great idea! How about multi-edit similar to what’s available in Rocks? You could leverage FieldEditor’s UI for that…
Great tool. This is one of those simple, but powerful features which will increase productivity significantly.
Another few ideas, – some could be covered by Alex multi-edit idea, could be:
* Set publishing date(s)
* Archive
* Set workflow and state
Thanks Alex and Lars, you both have some great ideas! I’ll be in touch and we can discuss more. Glad you liked the module!
Great work!
Will be looking forward to the multi-edit idea.
Hi Tim, I have installed this module but the Edit tab only show up in common folder template. Can this be modified? Thanks
