I don't know about it's core... But I cloned a datalist, and didn't modify anything in it's code... And when I add it to my site, it didn't work... The cloning process has some error?

When I view it's code, it's totaly different than the original one... So it's how the cloning've done? So a cloned datalist is not a datalist even when I don't modify anything, and it can't display anything at all...

So what should I do now? Modify the original one? Or using copy + paste manually?

Hi,

You need to modify the layout of the datalist - http://www.kentico.com/docs/devguide/customizing_web_part_layout.htm.

It is recommended to create a custom clone of the web parts - http://www.kentico.com/docs/devguide/modifying_the_design_of_standa.htm.

Then, you will add the text box to the datalist and its value you will pass to the wherecondition. For example:

this.lstElem.WhereCondition = TextBox1.Text;

The second option is, if you are using ASPX templates, to add the text box to the aspx page and then pass the value in Page_Load() method. Please do not forget to force the ReloadData method method to apply the change.

I understand this. But... If I want that text box on the Home page, but the datalist is on another page, call Result page... And when the OK button on the home page is clicked... it'll redirect to the Result page and the text on that text box will be put in to the where condition of the datalist on Result page... So how can I do that?

Thank you. :)
