    Register custom datatype

    Extending Umbraco

    Hi,

    I've written a custom datatype for umbraco v4.5 using the IDataEditor interface and copied the dll to the /bin folder, but it does not show up. Am I missing something?

    Thanks,
    atze

    Hi,

    Are you referencing the IDataEditor like this or ?

    public class checkboxListDataType : cms.businesslogic.datatype.BaseDataType, interfaces.IDataType

    and are you returned a guid for your control?

    public override Guid Id 
    {
      get {return new Guid("b4471851-82b6-4c75-afa4-39fa9c6a75e9");}
    }

    If you share some code it might be easier to isolate potential errors.

    - Morten

    I thought I had deleted the thread ;) Works now, the reason it did not show up was a code error (I had a constructor with parameters, which got into the code late at night when I was a little sleepy).

    But thanks for your reply.
