The BasicDataList control allows you to display items from a data source in a list based on specified templates. It is is derived from the intrinsic ASP.NET DataList control, so standard ASP.NET configuration techniques can be used to set up BasicDataList style and behaviour.

 

The BasicDataList can be used with any bindable data source - it doesn't use Kentico CMS database or API.

 

Unlike the BasicRepeater control, the BasicDataList allows you to display data in several columns.

 

The portal engine equivalent of the BasicDataList control is the Listings and viewers -> Basic datalist web part.

 

 

 

Please note

 

The CMSDataList control provides a more convenient way to display data from Kentico CMS.
