Sitecore Social Connected Goal Updates Error


I'm researching Sitecore's Social Connected module, and am trying to tie a social update to a marketing goal. Sitecore's documentation states:

In the Marketing Center, on the Publish tab, click Updates. The Update tab appears.

When I click Update, I get an alert window stating: "You do not have permission to see any item reports." I get this alert both when signed in as a developer or as Admin, so it appears not to be security related.

I'm running Sitecore.NET 6.5.0 (rev. 120427) with Social Connected Module 1.1.0 rev. 120329.

Updates:

public override void Execute(CommandContext context)
{
      Assert.ArgumentNotNull((object) context, "context");
      if (context.Items.Length != 1)
        return;
      if (WebUtil.GetFormValue("scEditorTabs").Contains("social:tab:show"))
      {
        SheerResponse.Eval("scContent.onEditorTabClick(null, null, 'OpenSocialCenter')");
      }
      else
      {
        Item obj = Context.Item;
        if (obj == null)
        {
          SheerResponse.Alert("You do not have permission to see any item reports.", new string[0]);
        }
        else 
        [code continues]

Solution

  • The error message appears if you open the Marketing Center from the Sitecore menu. Instead, open the Content Editor application, and navigate to /sitecore/system/Marketing Center. If you do not see /sitecore/system in the content tree, go to the View menu and select Entire Tree. When a goal is accessed through the Content Editor, the Publish/Updates button works correctly.

    Note: I have confirmed this issue occurs with Sitecore 6.5.0 (rev. 111230), update 3, the most recent update approved for Social Connected, per the release notes.

    Update: This bug has been fixed with Social Connected v1.2.
