My goal is to be able to make a section in the backoffice of umbraco.
Im quite sure that i need to make some kind of user control because i need to have connection to a webservice.
My goal is that i can get a section on a document type, where i can make some fields and so on so i can handle the connection with the web-service and ofcourse store the necessary information.
Anyone who can point me in the right direction ? Im using the latest version of Umbraco.
If I understand your question correctly you want to have the option to structure your document types with some areas to different data.
One way you could do it is by creating tabs on your document type. You can add so many tabs, that you want. Eg. a tab for SEO stuff and a tab for Content stuff and so on.
though its not quite what i was looking for, let me explain more deeply.
On a document type, a standard textpage with a body field etc. I want to be able to make some .net code to be able to interact with a web service which provide a list of data to the user which one should be selected, and there after make another call with the web service to provide the next information. The thing i need to be able to store is just a id though, but before i can get the right id, i need to have some options showed to the user through this web-service.
Hopefully this helps the understanding of my problem.
