Can switch sites in CSM Desk
In CMS Desk there is a dropdown control to select the site you want to work on. I can select a different site, but when the page is refreshed it still has the first site selected and active in CMS Desk.

I have three sites on localhost running Kentico CMS from Visual Studio 2008. All three sites are running and I use my hosts file, so each site has a different url. I have Corporate Site listening on the url corporate, I have Corporate Site ASPX listening on url aspx, and I have a thrid site that I am developing listening on localhost.

The third site is the first one in the dropdown, and I can's switch CMS Desk to either Corporate Site or Corporate Site ASPX. Even if I click the Edit content icon in the Site Manager it always opens the third site in CMS Desk.

I really want this resolved soon, because I need to have access to the example sites to get my new site up and running. Thanks!

RE:Can switch sites in CSM Desk
Hi,

This is very strange.

In CMS Desk, when you change the selection and the page is refreshed, is the URL changed also? Could you please send us the format of the URL? It is possible that the Visual Studio's server is not handling it correctly.

In Site Managers, what are the links for the Edit content buttons?

It is also possible that the Visual studio is creating the links only with different port number.

Best Regards,
