Thanks Joe for the quick response.

I have everything being copied, i.e. all my dlls etc. through post build events and they are all the web folder

xcopy /s /y "$(ProjectDir)bin\CoachAlert.UI.dll" "$(SolutionDir)Web\bin\"
xcopy /s /y "$(ProjectDir)bin\CoachAlert.Business.dll" "$(SolutionDir)Web\bin\"
xcopy /s /y "$(ProjectDir)bin\CoachAlert.Data.dll" "$(SolutionDir)Web\bin\"
xcopy /s /y "$(ProjectDir)AddAthlete\*.ashx" "$(SolutionDir)Web\AddAthlete\"
xcopy /s /y "$(ProjectDir)AddAthlete\*.ascx" "$(SolutionDir)Web\AddAthlete\"
xcopy /s /y "$(ProjectDir)AddAthlete\*.aspx" "$(SolutionDir)Web\AddAthlete\"
xcopy /s /y "$(ProjectDir)App_GlobalResources\*.resx" "$(SolutionDir)Web\App_GlobalResources\"
xcopy /s /y "$(ProjectDir)Setup\*" "$(SolutionDir)Web\Setup"

I even tried the code inline example and that didn't work either.

not sure what to try now.  maybe my setup on my web admin side in mojo portal is wrong, added it in admin and the created a new page where i added my 'feature'

My control source is:  AddAthlete/AddAthlete.ascx

I have a folder in the web folder called addathlete and have the ascx there.  

Joe,

When i get this working its definitely worth  buy a beer!

i changed to Inherits mojoPortal.Web.SiteModuleControl

but it said not defined so i changed to global.Inherits mojoPortal.Web.SiteModuleControl

but i think that may be telling me im missing something.  I changed to global but still a blank page.

once I fix the inherit, hopefully it will work, but wondering if something is wrong with the projects web.config or master page?  the web.ocnfig has the pages in it.  master page was from the store.ui.

Joe,

I had that reference already set.

Type mojoportal.web.sitemodulecontrol not defined.

Thanks for your help on this.  Once I get it going ill be able to start on my project and be able to create more modules.

Just as I saw your post I was compiling without the inline <%@ items :)

If I put the name space back in, I notice my reference to any labels or text boxes has this error: button 1 is not declared it may be inaccessible due to its protection level

I have imports mojoportal.web in my imports.

i blew everything out and recrecerted, still have to use global.mojoportal for the inherit and can't see the controls on the ascx page.  I think we are up to 2 beers by now.!

ascx
