Creating the frontend definitions

You must wrap all of the frontend views in a ContentViewControlElement and return it in the DefineLocationsFrontendContentView method of the definitions class. To do this, you must perform the following:

1. Open the LocationsDefinitions.cs file.

2. Add the following using statement:

   • using LocationsModule.Web.UI.Public;

3. In the LocationsDefinitions class, implement the DefineLocationsFrontendContentView method in the following way:

   public static ContentViewControlElement DefineLocationsFrontendContentView(ConfigElement parent)

   {

       var controlDefinition = new ContentViewControlElement(parent)

       {

           ControlDefinitionName = LocationsDefinitions.FrontendDefinitionName,

           ContentType = typeof(LocationItem)

       };

    

       var LocationsListView = new ContentViewMasterElement(controlDefinition.ViewsConfig)

       {

           ViewName = LocationsDefinitions.FrontendListViewName,

           ViewType = typeof(MasterListView),

           AllowPaging = true,

           DisplayMode = FieldDisplayMode.Read,

           ItemsPerPage = 6,

           FilterExpression = DefinitionsHelper.PublishedOrScheduledFilterExpression,

           SortExpression = "Title ASC"

       };

    

       controlDefinition.ViewsConfig.Add(LocationsListView);

    

       var newsDetailsView = new ContentViewDetailElement(controlDefinition.ViewsConfig)

       {

           ViewName = LocationsDefinitions.FrontendDetailViewName,

           ViewType = typeof(DetailsView),

           ShowSections = false,

           DisplayMode = FieldDisplayMode.Read

       };

    

       controlDefinition.ViewsConfig.Add(newsDetailsView);

    

       return controlDefinition;

   }
