Hi all,

I'd want to add a sitefinity admin page to end of this :
Dashboard Pages Content Design Administration XXXX

Also want to add an user control in this page. Can somebody show me how to do this in C#?

Thanks...

Hi Ozkan,

Sitefinity gives the possibility to manage your backend pages the same way you manage your frontend pages. This is done through the Sitefinity backend:
Administration->Backend Pages

Also you can install and take a look at our Sitefinity SDK.

Here is a code snippet which you can adapt to fit your needs:

PageManager pageManager = PageManager.GetManager();

var pageName = "Test page";

var pageId = Guid.NewGuid();

var pagaDataId = Guid.NewGuid();

// Get the parent node Id

var parentPageNodeId = SiteInitializer.SitefinityNodeId;

var pageGroupName = "Test Page Group";

var pageGroupGuid = Guid.NewGuid();

// Create the page

App.WorkWith().Page().GetManager().Provider.SuppressSecurityChecks = true;

App.WorkWith().Page()

.CreateNewPageGroup(parentPageNodeId, pageGroupGuid).Do(p =>

p.Title = pageGroupName;

p.UrlName = Regex.Replace(pageGroupName.ToLower(), @"[^\w\-\!\$\'\=\@\d_]+", "-");

)

.Done()

.CreateNewStandardPage(pageGroupGuid, pageId, pagaDataId)

.Do(p =>

p.Title = pageName;

p.Name = pageName;

p.Description = pageName;

p.UrlName = Regex.Replace(pageName.ToLower(), @"[^\w\-\!\$\'\=\@\d_]+", "-");

p.ShowInNavigation = true;

p.DateCreated = DateTime.UtcNow;

p.LastModified = DateTime.UtcNow;

p.Page.UIStatus = ContentUIStatus.Published;

p.Page.HtmlTitle = pageName;

p.Page.Title = pageName;

p.Page.Description = pageName;

)

.CheckOut().Publish()

.SaveChanges();

var createdPage = App.WorkWith().Page(pageId).Get();

if (createdPage != null)

createdPage.ApprovalWorkflowState = "Published";

App.WorkWith().Pages().SaveChanges();

var master = pageManager.EditPage(pagaDataId);

if (master != null)

// Replace with the desired controll to add on the page

var control = new Control();

var pageControl = pageManager.CreateControl<PageDraftControl>(control, "Content");

pageControl.Caption = "Caption";

pageManager.SetControlDefaultPermissions(pageControl);

master.Controls.Add(pageControl);

master = pageManager.PagesLifecycle.CheckIn(master);

pageManager.PagesLifecycle.Publish(master);

master.ApprovalWorkflowState.Value = "Published";

pageManager.SaveChanges();

Hope this helps. Greetings,
