Hi Sarah,

I'm afraid it's pretty hard to help with your specific issue without seeing the code that is being used, so the first step is to get you admin access. To do this you will need access to the umbracoUser table in the database, can you get that? Once you can edit the umbracoUser table, copy the encrypted password from your user and overwrite the password of the admin user, you will now be able to login as admin using your password and hopefully be able to get hold of the code used to work out what's going wrong.

Sorry about the delay, Jeavon, but yay, just got the Admin access working now. Thank goodness!

Here's the resources page. Logic tells me it has to be date related, but I'm not really qualified to venture an opinion. The only thing I have changed is the word "domain" in this line "Inherits="Domain.masterpages.ResourcesListing"

Thanks any one for reading over my query!

Hi Sarah,

Glad you've managed to get admin access!

It looks like the logic driving this is contained in a usercontrol and also in codebehind the masterpage.

Within the masterpages folder on the file system do you have the ResourcesListing.master.cs file? (It may have been compiled so might not be there)

Additionally, could you post the contents of /usercontrols/ArticlesNav.ascx (similar to the above, can you also check if you have /usercontrols/ArticlesNav.ascx.cs)

========================

I'm not finding /usercontrols/ArticlesNav.ascx.cs in the master templates folder. Maybe I am looking in the wrong place? I can't see it anywhere else either. 

Hi Sarah,

It would be in the usercontrols folder at the root level so not in templates. However you are looking for .cs files in both the masterPages and usercontrols folders.

I suspect that your developer has actually compiled the .cs files into a single .dll file in your bin folder. Unfortunately this means that you don't have access to the source code.

There a couple of options,

1. You could ask the developer for the original solution containing all source code (recommend option)
2. It might be possible for someone else to decompile and recreate the source code
3. The logic might be able to be recreated as a Razor macro

Hi Jeavon, 

I found this, does this help at all? Is there anything broken in this file?
