Workflow foundation in Umbraco - Preview

Tags: Workflow
Author: Darren Ferguson

At the Codegarden 2010 workflow open space session I pledged to demo what I had achieved with Workflow foundation and Umbraco. The screencast below is an overview of where I am

PS: When the demo fails in the screencast - I should have left the event checked (without a checked event there is no event to cancel!)

    That is bloody brilliant! High five you rock. I love that fact you can use in vs the workflow designer bit like the tridion visio thing guess its a bit more techie but better than not having any ability to implement custom workflows.

    Love it!

    I like the demo :) As I mentioned at CG10 we have a couple of sites live currently using Workflow Foundation for client side work flow, where a user who logs in must first sign a T&C and various other compulsary steps before being allowed to access the rest of the site.

    It works really well as they can do one step, log off, come back later and carry on where they left off.

    What I would like is to some how allow clients to build their own workflows within Umbraco, which I think would be possible with pre-defined workflow tasks.

    Cheers,

    Chris
