  Hello Sharyn en,
  
  The control of type Repeater cannot be found in ~/Sitefinity/ControlTemplates/$moduleSafeName$/SamplePublicControl.ascx"; The control is required and it is used in PublicControl.cs. Once again I suggest that you should use the new backend architecture that comes with Sitefinity 3.6
