Hi all
I need to install my existing Portfolio Server 11 onto a replacement server, as the old one has become decidedly flakey. Unfortunately although I can find the installation disks/files for v7 & v10, I can't find the version 11 that we're currently using. I was hoping to be able to download the required files from the Extensis website, but can't find them even in the 'discontinued products' pages.
Is it still possible to obtain this software anywhere? I'd find it very difficult to justify the cost of upgrading to the latest version right now, as this is a very seasonal business!
thanks
Mark

My workplace implemented Portolio 2016 as a CMS for photography early last year. We are publishing a selection of those photographs to other employees inside the company via NetPublish.
We did customize the NetPublish site quite a bit to make it work little bit more like a "Google search". There's only one search field available for the user (the QuickSearch) and people can just search keywords without have to use any AND/OR operators (we made the AND operator just default).
It works well 90% of the time, but we have one problem. The QuickSearch searches every single field associated with the file, including the information about when the file was cataloged, a date that interferes with the "shooting date" when people want to search when the image was taken.
Example: An image of a blue Ford Focus which was shot in 2005, but was cataloged 2016, comes up when you search (via QuickSearch in NetPublish) for "Blue Ford Focus 2016".
Done anyway know how we can possibly solve this? Can we somehow limit the fields the Quicksearch searches in? Can we someone erase the catalog date information (would like to stay away from that)?
Any help greatly appreciated!

I have several users with Publisher rights to catalogs in Portfolio 2016. I want them to be able to create Netpublish sites. It looks like only catalog Administrators have rights to do that. Is there any way to customize the Publisher role so it includes the ability to create Netpublish sites?

With the new updates, will end-users be able to select all the assets in a NetPublish site with just one click or do they still have to select each asset individually? I did not see anything in the What's New notes referring to this.

I just purchased the new SF7 and installed it on two machines; one is a Win7 Pro x64, the other a Win10 Pro x64. The Windows 10 install went smoothly, plugins for Adobe AI/PS/ID installed properly and we're off to the races. On Win7 however, it's a whole other ballgame.
Upon install everything looks great. However, when I try to open any of the above programs, I'm greeted with the CoreFoundation_v11x64.dll missing from the system, and a popup that the corresponding plugin for the program will not load. I attempted the instructions from this KB article (https://forums.extensis.com/t/corefoundation-v11x64-dll-error-in-photoshop-cc/546) to no avail, on any of the programs. I attempted a full reinstall of SF7, full reinstall of the Adobe programs. Nothing will allow these plugins to load. If I head into SF7 to attempt to uncheck and reinstall the plugins, they'll uninstall and the first one will seemingly work, but when selecting a second plugin to install I receive an error that the plugin is unable to be installed and I need to contact an admin.
Not sure what else to try; I'm hoping someone can shed some light on this. Just for full transparency, any of the above steps were attempted in regular and elevated modes.

After updating from v2.0.2 to v2.5.3, our batch uploading program was not able to establish a connection with the server. First we encountered the error "The server committed a protocol violation. Section=ResponseStatusLine." Adding "request2.ServicePoint.Expect100Continue = false;" to the Assest SEIService.cs file seemed to fix this, but now the following error surfaced:
; nested exception is: extensis.esp.exception.InvalidCredentialsException
; nested exception is: extensis.esp.exception.InvalidCredentialsException
; nested exception is: extensis.esp.exception.InvalidCredentialsException
After some investigating, I found that the two encrypted passwords used in the program (one for the Portfolio user and one to access the program settings), are broken. If I enter the unencrypted passwords into the code, there are no errors.
I don't know enough about this code to figure out why adding the above mentioned line make the encrypted passwords stop working. Any suggestions would be much appreciated!

I want to move files around using C# System.File.Move and then update keywords. I can do both independently but doing them together in a script causes a problem because when I move the file I have no way of knowing when the folder sync is complete. Or do I?
Is there a way to know when the folder sync is complete after I've moved a file?

We got an error:

Hi
I am currently trying to do something similar to this http://labs.extensis.com/viewtopic.php?f=11&t=265 in PHP and want to know how do I set limits to the job as I'm trying to test as the current catalog i'll be using has over 1000 images.
I will be using this functionality to automate the transfer of cataloged images in portfolio to external folders.
Any PHP examples will be appreciated. Or even a much simpler method using the API.
Thanks

Pretty much all font organization applications could really use meta tags as a way of finding things quickly.
When you start dealing with thousands of fonts, it never seems quick enough to look through all your folders and lists.
How time is spent just sifting through everything?
Sometimes I just want to search: "Sans serif, or script, or silly."
And sometimes I wish I could type groups of meta-tagged words like, "Silly, Script"
If fonts came with meta-tags and you could add your own as you went, it would make the search process a lot better.
Just as most cataloguing sites and stock image sites let you sift through large amounts of media, meta-tags would allow you to search through and organize your fonts. Without the chore of going through thousands of fonts and putting them into folders. Which has to be continually updated as you add more fonts.
Meta-tags on the other hand, are like putting them into lists, without having to create and organize lists.
Add the tag "Distressed" to a font is similar to crating a list and dropping the font into it, only you would just need to add the word to a field. Any other fonts that have this word added to that field, would show up as well if you type that word into the search bar.
It's a suggested solution to an ongoing problem I have had with every single font organization software I have ever used.

I'm having issues with the way auto-complete interacts with the entry frame for the keywords field.
Issue
1) When entering multiple values, when I attempt to change a completed entry, the frame inserts one character where I position the cursor and then jumps to the end of the string. e.g.- if I first enter the term "blue bike", and then want to enter "green bike", I drop the curser in front of the word blue and type green, it enters the g in the proper position, and then jumps to the end of bike to complete the rest of the word resulting in an unusable entry. I typically have to erase and start typing over. Is there any way to adjust this action?
Issue #2) When entering terms into keywords, the term is sometimes retained in the text entry frame and sometimes not after hitting return. Is there any way to make a term stick until manually deleting to enter/search for a new term?

I've had an issue with PDF files and their record being locked to input if the original asset is password protected. Finally figured this out, but why would the database not accept new entries if the original can't be written to? I've got the write metadata function turned off, but the only way I could add metadata to both system and custom fields is if I unlock the original PDF. I thought there wasn't any active connection with the originals if it's configured like this? Anyone else have this problem?

Good day all.
We have installed a demo of Suitcase Fusion 7 and doing some testing prior to upgrading Macs from Fusion 6 to 7.
I am looking to reduce the number of fonts showing up in Adobe software font lists (all the Asian character fonts, for example), and the overall number of fonts the system is burdened with activating. In the past, I actively removed fonts from the System folder following Kurt Lang's guide, but now in El Capitan it's become so tricky to remove system fonts that I'm looking for other ways to avoid loading fonts we don't need. I HAVE removed all except WEB fonts from Macintosh HD/Library/Fonts, but still have quite a few in System/Library/Fonts.
So in the Suitcase Fusion 7 Guide, on Page 25, there is a section titled "Extra System fonts". This is right after the "Finish" section.
These sections read as follows (I've also attached a screen capture):
Finish
You're ready to start using Suitcase Fusion.
There are a couple of cleanup items that you can attend to now if you choose to.
Extra System fonts
OS X and Windows include many System fonts that aren't necessary for your computer to function normally. Many of these fonts are extra fonts for specific languages.
To deactivate these fonts now, check the box labeled Deactivate non-required System Fonts.
...I can't find this "Deactivate non-required System Fonts" box anywhere. Would someone direct me, please?
Thank you!

Is there any way to keep the child folder structure intact when moving or copying a main folder to another catalog?
We maintain a current and archive catalog for our images based on origination date. Since we just hit the end of a calendar year, I need to move approximately 10K images into our archive catalog. I'd love to be able to just grab the root folder for that year and have all the sub folders and assets follow, but that's not happening (it used to in Ver 11.2)
And since the structure of the archive catalog has the year folders at the root level of a watched folder, you cannot simply copy sub-folders into the folder. I'm dreading having to take the time to create new folders and then move all these assets folder by folder.
Is there any work-around for this?

Hi there,
I'm a new user of Fusion 7 and I'm loading my font collection in the font library.
It's a big job because I have thousands of fonts and I want to tag and classify for the first time.
I encountered many problems, but the one for which at this time I ask your help is only in Fusion.
What does it mean when you get the message: Font unavailable.
As in this image.
The fonts are not corrupted, I can open with Win Font viewer and they are (as you can see in the screenshot) in the right place in fontVault, but the program tells Font Unavailable.
I read about the different version of the same font
"In some cases, a different version of the desired font may be activated or the font may be reported as unavailable."
and maybe this is the problem, (I saw 2 different series of folder for the same font) but I loaded only 4 single fonts.
I don't know how Fusion works, how the fonts are stored, I only know that the fonts are there but in the program I cannot have a preview or activate.
What can I do to solve this problem?
Thanks for any help ![:slight_smile:]( ":slight_smile:")

I deactivated unneeded System fonts and I started having trouble with Mail and Safari displaying question marks instead of the fonts on some pages.
The most mail recent is from Constant Contact and uses one of their templates.
The format is:
Content-Type: text/html; charset=utf-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable
And the
font-family:'Century Gothic', 'ITC Avant Garde', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"
The same font family is not displaying on Safari. However Century Gothic was not one of my system fonts to begin with, so I'm not sure that that had anything to do with it.
I have cleared the font caches and rebooted and rebooted with a safe start, but the problem has reappeared and never was fixed with Mail.
Do you have any insight into this problem and would Suitcase be the issue?

Is there any work-around for the inability to move a set of nested folders between catalogs?
Every year we move a folder of assignments from an earlier year into our archive catalog. This year we've got about 195 jobs with 10K of files to move to the archive. I'd hate to have to create new folders and move the contents of each folder separately?
It doesn't help that our watched folder structure in the archive has each year as a separate watched entry, so the system won't allow you to move folders into the root of a watched folder anyway. And to add to the pain, Ver 11.2 allowed you to do this with ease.
Anyone have any ideas?
Thanks.
