Kentico Support	kentico_radekm - 9/3/2010 12:52:08 PM RE:UI Culture - Custom String - display value in WYSIWYG editor Hello. I am sorry, but I don´t understand where in WYSIWYG Editor you want to show this value from your UI culture custom string? Can you provide more details, please, or post here some screenshot, where I can see it? Thank you. Best Regards, Radek Macalik

RE:UI Culture - Custom String - display value in WYSIWYG editor

The WYSIWYG editor is editable text webpart with html. I need to display static content like phone numbers and emails here - on other pages also.

We want the information in one location so that a change in place place get replicated all over.

On this same very note, can i create a new resource file in CMSResources. Put constants there and then pull information from here on the page.

Let say the resource file is called SiteGlobalResources.resx and the string name is "FaxMain". How can i use this in editable text - html webpart?


Kentico Developer	kentico_ivanat - 9/22/2010 3:00:15 PM RE:UI Culture - Custom String - display value in WYSIWYG editor Hi, you can use your resource string MainFax. Inserting following macro into editable region webpart the text of your string will be displayed. {$MainFax$} To see the result you need to click on the Live site button.

RE:UI Culture - Custom String - display value in WYSIWYG editor

I would like to do the same in ASCX Layout

I tried the fallowing but no use

<a href="#">{$Link1.help$}
Link1.help - is the custom string key value

but working in HTML Layout.

I Also try as below.

<asp:HyperLink ID="Link1" NavigateUrl="#" runat="server"></asp:HyperLink>
Link1 - is the custom string key value

RE:UI Culture - Custom String - display value in WYSIWYG editor

@batchahaja-socpa.org, i talked to one of the kentico consultants about 2 years back regarding the same issue and i was told that i can't use macros in inline controls. I tried to find that email but looks like i have lost it. If you find a way, please do let me know also.

If you need to know how to write macros, let me know and i'll send you the details.

Thanks.


Kentico Support	kentico_radekm2 - 7/13/2012 4:50:20 AM RE:UI Culture - Custom String - display value in WYSIWYG editor Hello. This localization macro will not be resolved just like this. However, you can resolve it via CMS.GlobalHelper.ResHelper.GetString() method in your ascx(.cs) file. Best Regards, Radek Macalik


Member	tjadoon-gmail - 7/13/2012 9:21:05 AM RE:UI Culture - Custom String - display value in WYSIWYG editor @Kentico_radekm2, do you have some example code that i can look at?


Kentico Developer	kentico_ivanat - 7/14/2012 12:00:26 PM RE:UI Culture - Custom String - display value in WYSIWYG editor Hi, in the layout you can call custom method like: {%#MyMethod()%} and in your .cs file you can implement this method which returns value using API provided by Radek. Something like is described here: custom function in markup Best regards, Ivana Tomanickova
