Setting StandardEditorConfiguration Programatically - Sitefinity - General Discussions

I want to be able to set the StandardEditorConfiguration property programatically, and it looks like it should be publically accessible (see www.sitefinity.com/.../p_telerik_sitefinity_web_configuration_appearanceconfig_standardeditorconfiguration.html), but when I try to access it in Visual Studio IntelliSense isn't picking it up. Am I missing something here?

Thanks,
Chris Aumiller

Hello Chris,

You can work with the Config manager and get the specific section, and then get/set the values of specific entries there. For example:

var mySection = Config.Get<AppearanceConfig>();

mySection.StandardEditorConfiguration= "~/test.xml";

Config.GetManager().SaveSection(mySection);

Boyan,

I continue to get errors because now VS is not recognizing the AppearanceConfig class. I'm having trouble finding the Class Reference on the website (previously I had a bookmark for www.sitefinity.com/.../introduction.html, but it appears this has moved and I can no longer find it) to look up the correct namespace.

Thanks,
Chris Aumiller

ETA: Thought I might have found it in another issue, but AppearanceSection does not live in Telerik.Sitefinity.Services like SystemConfig does.

Hi,

Please find below the same sample with fully qualified namespaces resolved, I hope this helps you achieve the desired functionality:

var mySection = Telerik.Sitefinity.Configuration.Config.Get<Telerik.Sitefinity.Web.Configuration.AppearanceConfig>();

mySection.StandardEditorConfiguration = "~/test.xml";

Telerik.Sitefinity.Configuration.Config.GetManager().SaveSection(mySection);

Hi Boyan, I'm getting this error when trying implement your solution:
Telerik.Sitefinity.Security.Data.StaticRoot,
Telerik.Sitefinity was not granted ChangeConfigurations in Backend for
principals with IDs 00000000-0000-0000-0000-000000000000

Any idea why this is happening / how to resolve?

Thanks.

Figured it out. In case it helps anyone else, I resolved the error by firing it from the PreApplicationStartMethod.
