Context menus
When editing transformations displaying Users or Groups, you can enclose the transformation code within one of the following controls, which enables context menus after right-click on the selected user or group:
Users
<cms:usermenucontainer runat="server" ID="userMenuElem" MenuID="userContextMenu" Parameter='<%# Eval("UserID").ToString() %>' ContextMenuCssClass="UserContextMenu" >
... transformation code ...
</cms:usermenucontainer>
|
Groups
<cms:groupmenucontainer runat="server" ID="groupMenuElem" MenuID="groupContextMenu" Parameter='<%# Eval("GroupID").ToString() %>' ContextMenuCssClass="UserContextMenu" >
... transformation code ...
</cms:groupmenucontainer>
|
The code above displays the default context menu controls for users or groups. These controls are stored in <web project>\CMSAdminControls\ContextMenus:
You can also develop your custom controls for this purpose. In this case, you need to include the MenuControlPath parameter in the cms:usermenucontainer or cms:groupmenucontainer controls in the transformation and set its value to the path to your control:
<cms:groupmenucontainer runat="server" ID="groupMenuElem" MenuID="groupContextMenu" Parameter='<%# Eval("GroupID").ToString() %>' ContextMenuCssClass="UserContextMenu" MenuControlPath="~\CMSAdminControls\ContextMenus\MyGroupContextMenu.ascx" >
... transformation code ...
</cms:groupmenucontainer>
