Re: titlecontrol not exist

Hey, wish you'd posted a solution! I'll post for anyone who subsequently encounters this error when following Joe's "Creating a mojoPortal Feature" video. Though it's not clear what actually works, Joe gets around the problem in the video with various incantations, saves, rebuilds, etc. None of this work for me. To get past the immediate error, I instantiated TitleContol within the current control's class i.e.,

public ModuleTitleControl TitleControl = new ModuleTitleControl();

So far so good...

Re: titlecontrol not exist

Instead of above, add following to your control's class:

protected ModuleTitleControl TitleControl;

Re: titlecontrol not exist

Hi,

If you are using separate projects for your modules, you need to add a reference to mojoPortal.Web project and copy the <pages><controls> section of the mojoPortal Web.config into your project Web.config.

Then you should not need to instantiate the control with code, it is only needed to add the module title control declaratively in your .ascx file like this:

<portal:ModuleTitleControl EditText="Edit" EditUrl="~/NewsLetterSubscribeModule/NewsLetterSubscribeModuleEdit.aspx" runat="server" id="TitleControl" />

EditText and EditUrl are optional and can be used if you have additional supporting pages for your feature, you can specify the url to an edit page and it will show the edit link and pass the pageid and moduleid to your page as query string params.

Hope it helps,

Joe

Re: titlecontrol not exist

I was able to finally get this to work. The issue had to do with Visual Studio not generating the correct code based on the designer.

To fix the issue, try these steps:

In the .ascx file, select all but the first line and cut from your control. (leave the <%@ Control ... %> intact). Build, see errors. Then paste back what you just removed. Build again, errors disappear.

Re: titlecontrol not exist

Steve Land posted a fix to this problem in his blog for anyone that still has this issue.

http://techblog.strongeye.com/archive/2009/12/16/creating-a-mojoportal-module.aspx

Basically, you have to do it in this order from CodeSmith:

1. Copy the .ascx.cs code, Save.

2. Copy ONLY the first line of the .ascx code, Save

3. Copy the rest of the .ascx code, Save.

This did it for me.

Re: titlecontrol not exist

Dear, I am following the video of the creation of modules and I have a doubt because Joe video copy a master page I had designed, I suppose to speed up the tutorial and I see eye to adjust the namespace "mojoPortal.Web" by "WebStore.UI" but that more changes?

Re: titlecontrol not exist

I'm aware this is an old topic, but this bug is still very alive using Visual Studio 2010 and the latest MojoPortal sources.

I followed the documentation here and made a new blank module, and when the error appeared I got rid of it after a couple "cut all but the first line, save, paste what you cut, save" tries. It built fine once, then the error came back and just won't go away.

It is interesting and frustrating how TitleControl is always the only control who fails.

Has anyone found another workaround?

Edit: Fixed bad redaction, oops.

Re: titlecontrol not exist

Finally found why the TitleControl error happened: I somehow didn't paste the "<%@ Control" line from the CodeSmith template generated code.

I've created two more projects from zero after that and they compile without incident.
