Cutom User Control
Hi
 
I need to add several customer user controls to my project (store section).
 
I am using version 2.5. I noticed this article in the blog (http://www.dotshoppingcart.com/View/Article/DotShoppingCart%20Blog/Customization.aspx)  but this does not work for your latest version as file ="/Controls/Blocks/BlockEditor.ascx does not exist.
 
Could you please tell me how to do this for the latest version of the suite?
 
Thanks

Re: Cutom User Control
I am still confused on this. The article talks about creating a generic block, not Controls/Blocks/BlockEditor.ascx. Isn't this file specific?

Re: Cutom User Control
Ok,
The file BlockEditor.ascx is not in the commercial version. This was my question, where is it? I found it in the Open Source version and copied it into my project. I am now getting the error:
 
Error 3 'DotShoppingCart.Commercial.Core.BlockUserControl' does not contain a definition for 'MoveForwardEnabled' and no extension method 'MoveForwardEnabled' accepting a first argument of type 'DotShoppingCart.Commercial.Core.BlockUserControl' could be found (are you missing a using directive or an assembly reference?) C:\test\Web\Controls\Blocks\BlockEditor.ascx.cs 87 55 C:\test\Web\
 
So the commercial core is missing something here??? Now my question is, how do I get this to work?

Re: Cutom User Control
BlockEditor.ascx was obsolete since the commerical edition has been changed to build the page editor on top of JQuery. The open source edtion will be upgraded to use JQuery as well when it gets a V3 update.
 
This article "Add custom user control" explains everything that you need to know to create a custom user control. Please follow that article.

Re: Cutom User Control
Actually, I am not trying to "create" a custom control. I am trying to follow http://www.dotshoppingcart.com/View/Article/DotShoppingCart%20Blog/Customization/104.aspx
 
I downloaded the zip file and put the code in my project and it errors on <font color="#0000ff" size="2"><font color="#0000ff" size="2">BlockEditor.ascx because it isn't there. So, maybe my question should be, how do I correct the code from the above blog so it works. Thats all I want is just have the category menu working.

Re: Cutom User Control
Please don't forgot about me. I would like to get this menu thing working. I downloaded the code from the blog and it chokes on the BlockEditor.
