Hi devs,

I'd like to use your Ecom group selector in a paragraph module, but i'm not sure how i can do it, i'ts basicallly this entire block/control that i would like to use in my module:

Is it possible, or is in some private backend control that is hidden away?

Yes, hidden and secret !

Include this control namespace.

<%@ Register TagPrefix="de" Namespace="Dynamicweb.Extensibility" Assembly="Dynamicweb" %>

And this is the markup:

<td>
                        <de:ProductsAndGroupsSelector runat="server" OnlyGroups="true" ShowSearches="true" ID="ProductAndGroupsSelector" CallerForm="paragraph_edit" Width="250px" Height="100px" />
      <input type="checkbox" runat="server" id="IncludeSubgroups" name="IncludeSubgroups" value="1" />
      <label for="IncludeSubgroups">
           <dw:TranslateLabel ID="TranslateLabel2" runat="server" Text="Include subgroups" />
      </label>
     </td>

Do not ask why....

Hi Nicolai,

Works like a charm.

The values i get from these controls look like this:

Shops: [all][s:SHOP1]
Groups: [some][g:GROUP4][g:GROUP5][g:GROUP6]

Have you built a helper function in your API to parse these to a List<string> or similar?

I'f not i'll just do it my self :-)

Hi Martin

You can use this one:

Dim pgh As New Dynamicweb.Extensibility.ProductsAndGroupsHandler
pgh.ParseData(weirdstring)

And then you get a ParseResult that contains a list of products, groups and shops.
