Same old file reference in project when 'Add reference' issue

Here is the "STUPID" scenario i came across,Following is the problem i had

Issue
I had one folder in my computer and it had two different version of dlls,My project already had reference of one of the dll,But now i wanted the reference of other dll,I simply deleted the old reference and tried to add new reference of the other file by selecting it,It was added but was showing old version when i tried to see its property ,I tried multiple times with multiple ways but no luck

Solution


First just check out the folder structure i had in my project,Here "Dlls" is the folder from which i wanted to add another file


You can see the "Dlls" folder is included in the project, And thanks to "Mr. Zakir Rana", One of project partner who insisted me to try excluding this folder and adding reference, It sounded foolish to me as its physical folder after all no matter if it is included or not,But i was surprised as soon as i excluded the folder,And it started taking new reference !!!

Set up leprechaun code generation with Sitecore XM Cloud Starterkit

Hi Sitecorians, It has been amazing learning year so far and with the change in technology and shift of the focus on frontend frameworks and composable products, it has been market demand to keep learning and exploring new things. Reasons behind this blog Today's topic is something that was in my draft from April-May, and I always thought that there is already a good documentation out there for  Leprechaun  and a blog post is not needed, Until I realized that there was so many of us facing same kind of issues and same kind of problems and spending same amount of time, That is where I thought, if I could write something which can reduce that repetitive troubleshooting time, That would really help the community. 1)  In a project environment, if we get into some configuration issues, we resolve them, we make sure we are not blocked and continue, but if you think same issue, same step and same scenario will come to other people, so if we can draft it online, it will help othe...

Why SitecoreAI - Getting into the shoes of the customer how to select right CMS

Hi Team, Lately, I have been talking to lot of our customers / potential customers and having pre-sales demos where one question always comes is "Why Sitecore" ?  Now this question can be for any product which is out for sell. And as a technician I always get into product technical features, but at the same time as a pre-sales guy, it also makes me think, surely all competitive products have same features, so definitely answer to this is not in the technicalities.  If you step back and think, we are also a customer in our daily life and buy lot of things, what is that process we go through? When we buy, how can your customer decide if this is a right fit for you or not, why we select A over B? Is it price? is it service? Is it a brand? Is it about features? Is it about brand loyalty?  When it is a technical product, I am sure it cannot start with the technicalities of the product or selecting product itself, 100% not, I feel decision is always business strategy first and ...

Hell of sitecore aliases pipeline breaking the site with 500 error

Hello Friends, I belive this blog post is very important for everyone because, It has some very serious effect on working of your headless website, i will share my experience what we faced and how we resolved it Issue we started facing Our site started giving "Key cannot be null or empty" with YSOD like following  Side affect Because of this 500 error, Our site pages were showing 500 custom error page intermittently and our MAU (Monthly Active User) drop rate increased. Sitecore KB There is already Sitecore KB article talking about this error but the patch which is provided on this link is confusing as well as very huge and it could bring other issues along with it as that upgrade patch also has lot of other things too which i did not want to introduce in our stable CMS. Known Issues - Retrieving the child items of resource items is not thread-safe Observation Though the surfaced exception was looking similar and giving same error and behavior given on this article, We looked...
