Is there a way to modify the 'Download List' widget to optionally include the title of the library? (or an editor entered string as a title? It feels wrong to include a 'content item' above each download list to explain what the list of files is for.

Hi Dan,

Yes, you can include the library in the "Download List" widget by adding new field in the widget template. For example if you choosed a "Table" type for the widget:

You can go to Design -> Widget Templates from the Navigation menu and choose "Table of documents for direct download". The template will apply and you can add your custom GridBoundColumn to the Grid to show libraries next to the documents. For example:

<telerik:GridBoundColumn UniqueName="library"

HeaderText="<%$ Resources:Labels, DocumentLibrary %>" DataField="Library" ItemStyle-CssClass="sfdownloadTitle" HeaderStyle-CssClass="sfdownloadTitle" />

Hope this helps.

All the best,
