Hello,

The Kentico setting I mentioned is the same you did in your first post:

CMS Site Manager -> Settings -> Cloud Services -> Show Windows Azure logo

Since you confirmed that it is set to true, and since SettingsHelper.AppSettings["CMSAzureProject"] returns an empty value, the issue seems to be with the Azure settings, not Kentico settings.

It is strange that the value is true in Azure UI, but empty when retrieving it from code. Could you also try retrieving some other settings key, using the same code? For example: CMSAzureAccountName? Do you also receive empty value?

If so, could you test placing the CMSAzureProject key in the web.config and see if you can get it then?


Finally, have you made any changes to the project code files? Could you check that this particular file looks like this?
