Hi

Do you have any tips for removing the functionality/widgets from shophome.aspx and integrating them with home.aspx.  The cart for example.  I'd like that to always be displayed wherever a user is.

The simple way to achieve what you are looking for is to wrap all of the controls inside a ShopData tag and then manually bind your shop to that control. 

<script language="c#" runat="server">
 protected override void OnLoad ( EventArgs e )
 {
  base.OnLoad ( e );
  MyShopCtrl.DataSource = Shops.GetShop("ShopApplicationKey")

 }

</script>

<ShopData runat=server id=MyShopCtrl >
<ContentTemplate>
...Your shop cotrols in here....
</ContentTemplate>
</ShopData>

Of course if this was a common occurance then you'd want to inherit from ShopData and create your own wrapper, that binds automatically.

Thanks for that Rob.  However getting an error which you may well know.  Please take a look at the excerpt below:

Line 14:         //Shop stuff
Line 15:         base.OnLoad ( e );
Line 16:         MyShopCtrl.DataSource = Shops.GetShop("ShopApplicationKey");
Line 17:                 
Line 18:         int userID = CommunityServer.Components.CSContext.Current.User.UserID;

You need to include the namespaces in the ASPX file

<%@ Import Namespace="FourRoads.CsShop.Core.Components" %>
<%@ Import Namespace="FourRoads.CsShop.Core" %>

Also you need to replace ShopApplicationKey with the application name of your shop.

LOL!

I had the imports but missed the 'ShopApplicationKey'  Been looking at this stuff for so long I couldn't see the wood for the trees.

Thanks for the support. Outstanding!
