Recently, we had a requirement where we needed to personalize content based on the current host.
The requested scenario was: visitor can access the same site from different hosts. For example: pension.company.nl, insurance.company.nl, mysafety.company.nl. Based on the current host, the visitor should see a different icon and text on the page.
How did we meet this requirement?

I have been studying unit testing and investigating how I can use it on Sitecore projects. One good usage I discovered (despite all the extra work now I have to setup a unit test project) is writing a code that uses Sitecore API and I can actually trust.
In this post, I give an example of how unit testing can speed up your development process and give you extra reliability on your code.
As a developer, I tend to not pay too much attention to certain parts of Sitecore. Some of those parts are the functionalities available on the Experience Editor. Here I share four things I recently learned about the Experience Editor.

In this post, we are going to create a scheduled publishing task which on a given Interval queues a new publish job.

Sitecore Publishing Service replaces the existing Sitecore publishing methods with a faster, reliable and user-friendly solution. It reduces the amount of time spent publishing large volumes of items and provides better visual feedback to the user. It was released for Sitecore 8.2 and is also available for Sitecore 9.
In this post, I am going to write about the publishEndResultBatch pipeline. An event pipeline that Sitecore starts after Sitecore Publishing Service finishes publishing each batch of items.

The Publishing Service is a module that replaces Sitecore publishing functionality. This module increases the speed for publishing large volumes of items and improves the user experience.
As the Publishing Service runs on a separate process to the Sitecore CM instance, it contains its own logging file located at the (PublishingServiceInstallationFolder)/logs folder. By default, it only logs data on the “Information” logging level.
In this post, you will learn how to set the “Debug” logging level to get more information.
