    Any GUI add-on for querying and viewing external data source?

    Hi,

    Does anybody know if there is a add-on / packages for Umbraco 7 that provides a GUI that covers connecting to an external database, querying options and, finally, some displaying options for use in a view?

    I don't want to import any data into the Umbraco database (like CMSImport) but simply referencing the externally stored data.

    Regards, Martin

    Hi Martin,

    THe easiest way to do this is creating a custom section in Umbraco.

    Tim has some good posts on his blog about this : http://www.nibble.be/?p=434

    You can also have a look at my code from my DUUG and UmbUkFest talks about the subject :
