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 a 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:

 

GroupContextMenu.ascx
UserContextMenu.ascx

 

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>
