Ajax Manager and Ajax Proxy - Sitefinity - Front- & Back-End Development

I have a user control that users the AjaxManagerProxy in it and tries to reference the RadAjaxManager that is in the masterpage template

However instead of ajax updates I get hard post backs.

Anything I am missing?

Hi Rick,

Thank you for using our services.

Actually, I would suggest you to use our SitefinityUpdatePanel when performing partial updates on the page. Please review this blog post for further reference:

The link you sent contains a comment that says this doesn't work. so does it indeed work?

Also why can't I use controls built by you guys in the way they were intended in a system designed by you guys as well?

Hi Rick,

Please excuse us for the delayed response.

Can you please give us an example of the control that is currently not working on the Sitefinity page, so we can give you a more specific advice.

Please note that a Sitefinity page's lifecycle differs a bit from the standard .NET page lifecycle, thus we have developed the out of the box SitefinityUpdatePanel control, to accommodate users' needs to easily implement partial page updates. The only case this would not work is if you are trying to use it withing the context of a control inheriting from our SimpleView class, where the standard .NET UpdatePanel is recommended instead.

Please do not hesitate to let us know if any issues persist.

Kind regards,

I tried adjusting the user control to use a telerik:RadAjaxPanel and it is still posting a full page post back.

Should I be checking include script manager on the page or should I be including it in my master?

Hello Rick,

Do you have Include RadScriptManager and Enable ViewState checked form your page's Title and properties section?

We have tried the provided example and it results in the same working behavior, please find attached a short demonstrative video and a copy of the control used in it.
