Inline Widget
I'm having some trouble getting an inline widget to work. I have cloned the Latest News widget and changed the security to be 'used as inline widget'. When I add the inline widget to a page no results are displayed. If I used the original webpart I cloned in a normal widget zone the results show correctly. Am I missed a step somewhere?

Thanks.

RE:Inline Widget
Hello.

I was able to reproduce this issue on my 6.0.4. It seems that you even don’t need to clone it. To reproduce the problem it is enough just to mark Latest news widgets as inline widget. I did submit it as a bug and we will investigate it. I will post here an update when I have any. Thank you for your patience.

Best Regards,

RE:Inline Widget
Hi,

I think I may have the same problem.

Here's what I did:
1. Created a news page template. In the template I have:
<%@ Register Src="~/CMSWebParts/Viewers/Documents/cmsrepeater.ascx" TagName="repeater" TagPrefix="uc1" %>

<asp:Content ID="Content2" ContentPlaceHolderID="plcMain2" Runat="Server">
<uc1:repeater ID="NewsRepeater" ClassNames="CMS.News" OrderBy="NewsReleaseDate DESC"
TransformationName="CMS.News.NewsWithSummary" SelectedItemTransformationName="CMS.News.NewsDetail" PagingMode="querystring"
PagerPosition="bottom" ResultsPosition="top" RelationshipWithNodeGuid="00000000-0000-0000-0000-000000000000"
RelationshipName="isrelatedto" ShowNewButton="True" NewButtonText="Add news<br />" ShowEditDeleteButtons="True"
ItemSeparator="<br />" runat="server" />
</asp:Content>

2. I created a news page using the template
3. I created a dummy news and it works fine on the news page
4. I made sure the widget can be used as inline widget and added this LatestNewsUser widget at the homepage content place holder.
5. It only displays: No data found.

Could you please tell me what step I missed? It seems like they are reading from different database tables...

Thank you!
