Member	tmcmahan - 10/3/2008 6:46:23 PM CMS Sitemap Is there a way to force the CMSSitemap control to render absolute paths instead of relative? I want <a href="/Services.aspx"> to render as <a href="http://www.mysite.com/Services.aspx">. Any help would be greatly appreciated, Thanks!

RE:CMS Sitemap

Hello,

I'm sorry, but it's not possible to do this now in some nice way. You may need to use a workaround for it and achieve your goal programmatically.

You will take 'RenderedHTML' property, go through it and find and change all links using 'UrlHelper.MakeLinksAbsolute' function. This will enforce that your links in site map will use absolute path.

I hope it's clear, if not, don't hesitate to ask.

Best regards

RE:CMS Sitemap

Thanks for your response Ondrej!

I have successfully parsed the RenderedHTML property and updated the URLs but I am having trouble forcing the control to render the updated string.

I tried assigning my updated string to the RenderedHTML prop but I believe this is happening too late in the life cycle to affect the control's output:

this.smElem.RenderedHTML = MyHelper.RewriteSiteMapHTML(this.smElem.RenderedHTML);

How do I force the CMSSitemap control to output my new RenderedHTML string?


Kentico Developer	kentico_ondrejv - 10/10/2008 5:14:52 AM RE:CMS Sitemap Hello, it's probably because the page is loaded again just after you set absolute addresses. So it changes them back to relative. Could you please try add following code? this.smElem.LoadDataAutomaticaly = false; Best regards Ondrej Vasil
