  It seems that it is not possible to change the LoggedInLayoutTemplatePath and LoggedOutLayoutTemplatePath properties of the LoginStatus widget. Is this a bug?

  Hello Nelson,
  
  Yes, there is a know issue about the template paths of the control. I suggest that you should use the standard ASP.NET analogs in a custom or user controls as a workaround.

  Hi Ian,
  
  The status of the issue is not fixed.  There is a workaround that I see if you override
  LoggedInLayoutTemplatePath and LoggedOutLayoutTemplatePath, but changing the properties though the control designer does not work.

  Can you go into a bit more depth explaining the work around?
  
  Thanks!

  @Ivan:
  
  Per your last post: "There is a workaround that I see if you override
  LoggedInLayoutTemplatePath and LoggedOutLayoutTemplatePath, but changing the properties though the control designer does not work."
  
  The "LoggedInLayoutTemplatePath" and "LoggedInLayoutTemplatePath" values aren't persisted when edited via the designer.  Any info on the work around would be appreciated.
  
  Thanks--Steve

  Hi Stevev,
  
  You have to inherit from LoginStatusControl and override the virtual LoggedInLayoutTemplatePath and LoggedOutLayoutTemplatePath public properties.

  Hi,
  
  Here is a sample code
  
  

  using System;

  using System.Collections.Generic;

  using System.Linq;

  using System.Web;

  using Telerik.Sitefinity.Web.UI.PublicControls;

   

  namespace SitefinityWebApp

  {

      public class LoginStatusControlSample : LoginStatusControl

      {

   

          protected override string LoggedInLayoutTemplateName

          {

              get

              {

                  return null;

              }

   

          }

   

          protected override string LoggetOutLayoutTemplateName

          {

              get

              {

                  return null;

              }

          }

   

   

          public override string LoggedInLayoutTemplatePath

          {

              get

              {

                  return "~/MyPRefix/Telerik.Sitefinity.Samples.Resources.LoggedInLayoutTemplatePath.ascx";// here return your template using Virtual Path provider

              }

   

          }

   

          public override string LoggedOutLayoutTemplatePath

          {

              get

              {

                  return "~/MyPRefix/Telerik.Sitefinity.Samples.Resources.LoggedOutLayoutTemplatePath.ascx";";//here return your template using Virtual Path provider

              }

   

          }

         

      }

  }
