Hello, I am receiving an error when I try to view the settings page for forums. the error is below:
--------------
Compilation ErrorDescription: An error occurred during the compilation of a resource required to service this request. Please review the following specific error details and modify your source code appropriately.

Compiler Error Message: CS1061: 'Telerik.Sitefinity.Web.UI.Fields.HtmlField' does not contain a definition for 'ClientId' and no extension method 'ClientId' accepting a first argument of type 'Telerik.Sitefinity.Web.UI.Fields.HtmlField' could be found (are you missing a using directive or an assembly reference?)

Hi Jeff,

Thnak you for using our services.

Can you please let us know if you have updated the .NET version of your framework, to 4.5 by any chance? Also is this behavior consistent under all browsers?

We have tried reproducing it on our side however the functionality seems to operate correctly. Just in case, can you please try mapping an external template for the Telerik.Sitefinity.Forums.Web.UI.Backend.ForumsSettingsView type.

For your convenience I've attached a copy of the modified template to this reply.

All the best,
Boyan Barnev
the Telerik team

The .NET framework V4.5 is NOT installed on the server. I've tried it on the latest version of chrome, firefox, and Internet Explorer on windows and all had the same error. I would expect this since it is a server error, not a client one. I'll try to do the external template mapping and let you know how it goes.
