Is there a way to create a link to a page that list a specific content type and creates only content types of a specific type? For example, I have a content types for "Colors" I want to add a link on the admin menu that'll take the user to a page that'll list only "Colors" content types. and when the user clicks "New" button, it'll create a new Color instead of giving the user an option to create other content-types.

I tried this but it does not do anything special
.Add(S["Colors"], "5", t => t
.Action("List", adminControllerName, new { area = "OrchardCore.Contents", ContentType = "Color" })
.Permission(CommonPermissions.EditContent)
.LocalNav()

Does anyone else feel content creation process is a little constricted? Why does content creation have to be an "admin" experience, especially given the fine grain control over content types. Granted I may just not how to use the platform. Currently you have to maintain two themes which is a little annoying. What was the reasoning behind the admin/user theme thinking and is it still a relevant default in today's user content generation world?

How to render SEO content item parts to the page via Razor?
Looking at the RegisterUserTask (https://github.com/OrchardCMS/OrchardCore/blob/bc9888bef3082f5f265acf24c07f360636c74ace/src/OrchardCore.Modules/OrchardCore.Users/Workflows/Activities/RegisterUserTask.cs#L97), it looks like there's no way to pass it a value from the workflow, and just pulls the email from the form. Is this assumption correct, or is there an alternative way of passing an email in?
Did something happen with how a new user gets assigned an ID? Before I was able to use
var userData = await Orchard.GetUserByIdAsync(User.Identity.Name); (using decoupled razor pages) and it would return all of the info and fields for that user. However, when I create a new user in v1.0.0 or v1.1.0, all I get is a null when using this method. The method works for the older users created in the previous version, but this method doesn't seem to work for users created in the new version for some reason. Is there another method or process for retrieving custom fields/info for users?
Nic you need to use claimtypes.nameidentifer now.

On any of Orchard's login, registration, password reset, (any system form that Orchard presents to the user) I am running in to a problem of being able to click the submit button multiple times. When I go to simply log in, I can click the submit button repeatedly (because sometimes it takes a few seconds to log in) and it fires off a new instance of my workflow for every time I click the submit button. I am trying to register new users through the login form, and I believe it has broken some of my workflows because someone has clicked the "Register" button multiple times when trying to register. I get errors when trying to view my workflow instances of my registration workflow, and it's no longer letting these users verify their email addresses because they appear to be broken. Could some code be put in place to only allow the user to click any submit/register button once?
An update to my previous post: I can't get access to any of my workflows now on my server. Everything still seems to work fine locally, but when I test them out on my server I just get a "This page isn't working, HTTP Error 500". Any ideas why workflows are working locally, but not on the server? Is there a folder that needs permissions updated for some reason? Sorry, I hardly know any .net, so this stuff is making me bonkers! Everything local works beautifully and is awesome...
@Nic-84 find the log file on the server and have a look at it, in prod we don't return anything more than a 500, so you have to look in the logs. They're in App_Data/Logs Depending on how you deployed them you may have to renegerate some data protection keys / urls on the http request activity. if that's what you're using

Is there a way to call Orchard.DisplayAsync from a page in the Pages/ folder? I have a page that looks something like this:
@page "/{item}/form"
@inject OrchardCore.IOrchardHelper Orchard
@{
var itemPath = ViewContext.RouteData.Values["item"];
var contentItem = await Orchard.GetContentItemByHandleAsync("slug:" + itemPath, true);
}
<div>
Have some content:
@await Orchard.DisplayAsync(contentItem);
</div>And it can't seem to find DisplayAsync on Orchard? 'IOrchardHelper' does not contain a definition for 'DisplayAsync' and the best extension method overload 'OrchardRazorHelperExtensions.DisplayAsync(IOrchardDisplayHelper, ContentItem, string, string, IUpdateModel)' requires a receiver of type 'IOrchardDisplayHelper'. Is there a way to inject an instance of IOrchardDisplayHelper instead of IOrchardHelper?

@deanmarcussen, or if anyone else has any ideas - This is in reference to my post a few posts up... I added logging to my site and I see the log file now. I will mention that I have created a custom email task to use in workflows, and it looks like that's where the error is coming from. Here is the error that I get:
Microsoft.AspNetCore.Diagnostics.ExceptionHandlerMiddleware|ERROR|An unhandled exception has occurred while executing the request. System.Exception: Shape type 'CustomEmailTask_Fields_Design' not found. And then there is probably like 500 or more lines of stack trace data. Again, the workflows work great locally. I am only running in to this problem on my dev/prod server.
did you forget to publish this file? it doesn't look like one of orchard's view files
Is there a reason why it wouldn't get published? All of my files for the CustomEmailTask for the workflows are included and part of my project. I will keep researching to see if I can find anything, but as far as I can tell, everything is getting published.
I will also note, I am getting both of these errors/exception, not just the one:
I'll keep searching, but if you have any ideas in the meantime...

I am using Orchard as a content management tool only. It's a decoupled razor page website. I have some workflows that publish/unpublish content items, as well as send email communications. I created a custom email workflow task to work specifically with my mail server instead of using the stock Orchard email settings (which I may switch back to). Everything works locally. My workflows actually work on the prod server, but when I log in to the Orchard admin and try to edit a workflow on my prod server, I get these errors.
@kdubious sure, I'm here tomorrow for a bit. be good to tweak that one up and get it in

Yes, I have the email module turned on if that's what you are referring to. Some of the features of my site wouldn't work locally if something wasn't turned on, right? I feel like I probably need to abandon my custom email task for my workflows at this point. I was using them because I couldn't get the stock Orchard email module to work with my mail server. The email module works, but only when the encryption is set to none, so that's not going to cut it. Trying to use SSL just gives me errors. I was able to swap out the SMPT settings in my custom email workflow task and that worked. But I am going to have to figure out how to get the stock Orchard email module to work. I need to allow new users to verify their registration and manage their own password through email, and that only works with the stock Orchard email module.

if its in web application check if your shape file is copied when you publish your web app
Almost there now with http://new.nogginbox.co.uk/
But my menu tag is getting rendered in the HTML as:
<menu alias="alias:main-menu" cache-id="main-menu" cache-fixed-duration="00:05:00" cache-tag="alias:main-menu" />
It's working fine on my local machine.
