Creating Sitefinity MVC Widgets that Input Data

Sitefinity MVC supports creation of many different kinds of widgets, including those that create and edit data using input from the page. Because these widgets need to support both pure MVC as well as webform pages, there are some considerations when using forms and html input tags to input data.

This video demonstrates how you can create a simple Sitefinity MVC widget that creates News items using the Sitefinity API, and how you can collect that data using form input fields on your widget and save those values to the database by using an HTTP POST.
