Can someone give straight forward answer: how to incorporates NET
project (single complex ASPX page with lot of contentplaceholders and
backend functionality) into Umbraco?
I look through forums and all suggestions end up is: build a control and incorporate into Umbraco via macros.
This is not a valid option for me because it have to be at least 8 controls and dissasembling project will be a waste of time.
And what is worse that later on in Umbraco I will have to assemble and rebuild same app all over again.
So, is there a way to incorporate running web app into umbraco without making it a controls(or banch of controls in my case)?
If
I had an Umbraco project(solution) file that would not be an issue -
just add my project to Umbraco; but since Umbraco distributed without
such of file I need help and I do not think that I am alone struggling
with issue similar to this...
if it is a single aspx-page, then you can add it to your site and tell umbraco not to process that request by adding the path to the aspx to the umbracoReservedUrls in the web.config.
Thanks for reply but I need that page to use Umbraco master pages since as you know site should look and feel consistent in terms of navigation and all other front-end UI designers things. On top of that all functions propcessing responces from user inputs compiled in DLL. So it should be part of Umbraco.
In that case, I see no other option then to convert it into usercontrols.
But, having said that, I am no masterpages-guru, so maybe there is someone else that knows if you could have your page inherit from the umbraco masterpages.

Hi All,

Hope this helps you,
Peter

Umbraco Master page gurus, AYYYYYYYYYY.
Anybody home?
By the way Peter, how I can tell Umbraco not to process my page.
I think I can put header and footer into separate files and use it, if Umbraco will allow IIS to render my page.
See my first post: open the web.config in the root of the site and add the file to the umbracoReservedUrls
I try.
Getting page not found.
I used it with and without "~". Same result.
I am on Umbraco 4.7.1, does this makes any difference?
I try to put into web config:
<add key="umbracoReservedUrls" value=" ~/config/splashes/booting.aspx, ~/install/default.aspx,/config/splashes/noNodes.aspx, /campus-find-your-fit.aspx" />
<add key="umbracoReservedPaths" value="~/umbraco, ~/install/, /images/" />
Result is:
1 without "~":
Value cannot be null.
Parameter name: virtualPath

2. with"~"-- page not found.
Never mind.
I found problem.
That was a backslash on front of the file name.
I assumed that since file in the root slash is not needed. Turns out tilda and slash both need to be there.
Still, I would prefer more elegant solution and ability to edit those files within CMS once they are part of the site.
Thanks for the help and paitience with me. :-)
is working on a reply...
