one content placeholder dont'n work..

Templates and document types

Info: Umbraco 4, VS2008, ASP.NET3.5

Hi,
I have a base template(master), main template and a footer template. The content in the footer template renders fine but not for the main template..

I've checked and rechecked countless times and cannot find any code errors, VS cannot find any errors either. Everythin is setup with the right templates and published etc..
I dont get any errors when i run the site in a browser, and umbraco don't complain either.

Funny thing is that when i remove the CPH Footer from the master template I get error in the browser, it says it cant find the CPH FooterContent, when i do the same with the main CPH nothing happens, no error at all.

Also if i change the id "MainContent" in the master template to "FooterContent" the footercontent renders fine in the main div.

Hope u can help me...

Code from the master template;

-----------------------------------------------------------

<div id="Main">
            <asp:ContentPlaceHolder Id="MainContent" runat="server">
            </asp:ContentPlaceHolder>
</div>

<div id="Footer">
            <asp:ContentPlaceHolder ID="FooterContent" runat="server">
            </asp:ContentPlaceHolder>
</div>

------------------------------------------------------------

Code from the Main template;

--------------------------------------------------

<%@ Master Language="C#" MasterPageFile="~/masterpages/BaseMasterPage.master" AutoEventWireup="true" CodeBehind="StartPageTemplate.master.cs" Inherits=asdf.asdf.masterpages.BaseMasterPage" %>

<asp:Content ContentPlaceHolderId="MainContent" runat="server">
    <div id="LeftMainContainer"><umbraco:Item field="LeftMainContent" runat="server"></umbraco:Item></div>
    <div id="TopRightMainContainer"><umbraco:Item field="TopRightMainContent" runat="server"></umbraco:Item></div>

<asp:Content ContentPlaceHolderId="FooterContent" runat="server">
    <div id="LeftFooterContainer"><umbraco:Item field="LeftFooterContent" runat="server"></umbraco:Item></div>
    <div id="MiddleFooterContainer"><umbraco:Item field="MiddleFooterContent" runat="server"></umbraco:Item></div>

you should write ID in capitals:

<asp:ContentPlaceHolder ID="MainContent" runat="server"></asp:ContentPlaceHolder>

@Johan, Peter means on <asp:ContentPlaceHolder tags, not the Div tags! ;)

If you look closly your tag which is function uses ID in capitols and the broken one is Id.

Hope that fixes it for you, Lau

Hi Johan!

Have you tried to set "recursive=true" for your umbraco field for your footer?
