I have a usercontrol on my masterpage, usercontrol has a searchbox in which I was trying to map a template to an ascx on my filesystem

<sitefinity:SearchBox id="searchbar" runat="server" LayoutTemplatePath="~/UserControls/Menu/SearchView.ascx"  />

Setting this though causes everything to crap out...runtime errors allover the place I cant even get to /Sitefinity/Pages

A required control was not found in the template for "Telerik.Sitefinity.Resources.Templates.Backend.Search.SearchWidget.ascx". The control must be assignable form type "Telerik.Sitefinity.Web.UI.SearchBox" and must have ID "searchBox".

Ok, this is worse than I thought

Removing that template doesnt fix issue

I cant even get to the backend of sitefinity ANYWHERE anymore (...anywhere where there would be a searchbox which is almost everywhere), even after a new build and recycling the AppPool

Help :(

Hello Steve,

Have you tried to remove this control from the template

<sitefinity:SearchBox id="searchbar" runat="server" LayoutTemplatePath="~/UserControls/Menu/SearchView.ascx"  />

Kind regards,

Yes, believe me, I've tried removing just the layout property, then the whole control

What do I change in the DB to have it use it's default layout

I've put in a ticket containing the DB, I have to show this tomorrow so I was hoping to work on it more today, but I can't get anywhere in the backend

The frontend pages work fine, but for some reason me changing that told the backend search box to use a different template

Tried removing the Property, then the control,building the project, recycling the apppool

Nothing I do does anything to get by this

If I was to have mapped an incorrect LayoutTemplate on a backend control on a production system, hell even a dev database how would I ever be able to recover from this if I can't even get INTO the backend.

Hello Steve,

Did the proposed solution in the support ticket you have opened resolve the issue?

Hey Steve/Radoslav,

I was wondering what the status was for a search template.
After reading this I'm a bit careful before fiddling with it myself. Was it something totally unrelated that caused the entire back end to freeze up or are we better of using the standard search ?

@Jochem
  No it's all good...the namespace I mapped in my webconfig so I could use the search control in the masterpage was the BACKEND search control so it got confused :)

This was so I could map the control as <sf:SearchBox or something like that, has nothing to do with mapping a template.  As long as the external template exists where you map it, you'll be fine
