1. Blog selector( web editor)

This web editor is useful if you want to select some of the blogs you have already created.

Example:

Here we are creating an user control where we add BlogPosts control.

 

<%@ Control Language="C#" AutoEventWireup="true" CodeFile="WebEditor.ascx.cs" Inherits="CustomControls_WebEditor" %> 
<%@ Register Assembly="Telerik.Blogs" Namespace="Telerik.Blogs.WebControls" TagPrefix="blogs" %> 
 
<blogs:BlogPosts ID="BlogPosts1" runat="server" ParentIDs="" />

 

We put the WebEditor in the code behind and use the value to show our blog. Under methods

region you can create a new instance of BlogManager and pass the ID of the WebEditor.

 

using System;
using System.Web.UI;
using Telerik.Cms.Web.UI;
using System.ComponentModel;
using Telerik.Rss;
using Telerik.Framework.Web.Design;
using Telerik.Cms.Engine;
using Telerik.Cms;
using Telerik.Blogs;
 
public partial class CustomControls_WebEditor : System.Web.UI.UserControl, ITextControl
{
    #region Methoods
 
 protected void Page_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
    {
 if (selectedBlogs != null)
        {
            BlogManager ctman = new BlogManager();
            IBlog blog = ctman.GetBlog(selectedBlogs[0]);
            BlogPosts1.ParentIDs = selectedBlogs;
        }
 
    }
 
    #endregion
 
    #region Properties
 
    [TypeConverter("Telerik.Blogs.WebControls.SelectedBlogsConverter, Telerik.Blogs")]
    [WebEditor("Telerik.Blogs.WebControls.BlogsSelector, Telerik.Blogs")]
 public Guid[] SelectedBlogs
    {
 get 
        {
 return this.selectedBlogs;
        }
 set 
        {
 this.selectedBlogs = value;
        }
    }
 private Guid[] selectedBlogs;
 
    #endregion
 
}

2.Newsletters group selector - it returns all newsletter groups you have already created.

Example:

[WebEditor("Telerik.Notifications.Newsletters.WebControl.GroupSelectionList, Telerik.Notifications")]
    [TypeConverter("Telerik.Framework.Utilities.GuidArrayConverter, Telerik.Framework")]
 public Guid[] SubscriberGroups
    {
 get { return subscriberGroups; }
 set { subscriberGroups = value; }
 
    }
 
 private Guid[] subscriberGroups;
