Hi Timo,

Due to Sebastian comment "contentPane is converted into a user control and therefore cannot reside inside a skin object (which already is a user control)" wrapping the Skin contents into a Skin Object is not a option.

Did you have to time test? Have you found any solution to the problem?

Thanks,

Nick

Hey,

There's a new feature in DNN9 to drag-n-drop modules. My problem is that in my skin's ascx files I use a lot of <%%> constructions which cause the page to reload after dropping a module into a new location.

To reproduce, simply add 

<%If (True) Then %>   Test


<%End If %>

to theme's ascx file. The page will be fully refreshed after doing d&d.

Is there any solution to prevent full page refresh?

Thanks,

Nick

 I finally had time to test. :-)
I just tested with 2 different skins, the default and one of my own.
They both reload the page when I move a module or after I add a new module. (without or with an <%if %> in it)
So I'm not sure what you meant  I guess?

Hi Timo,

Thanks for spending your time on investigation.

When you add a module, the page is reloaded, which is fine.

But for drag-n-drop it's not. My scenario is:

1. Create a page with default skin

2. Add two HTML build-in modules

3. Move them with mouse

The page is not reloaded, which is expected. But, if you add smth like this <%If (True) Then %> <%End If %> to the skin's page, you will get the complete page reload.

Can you please confirm that?

Cheers,

Nick

   Hi Nick,  
   I already tested this last week and I always got a postback, but now I do see it as you describe. Weird.  
   I also tested our skin object, which also uses conditions too and with that it does seem to work.  
   I tested wit the Xcillion Home skin and used this:  
     
   <%@ Register TagPrefix="fortyfingers" TagName="STYLEHELPER" Src="~/DesktopModules/40Fingers/SkinObjects/StyleHelper/StyleHelper.ascx" %>  
     
    <!-- Page Content -->  
       <div class="container">  
           <main role="main">  
               <div class="row dnnpane">  
     
                   <div class="col-xs-12">  
                       <h1><fortyfingers:STYLEHELPER id="FFSH1" IfBrowser="firefox" Content="Using FireFox" runat="server" />  
                       <fortyfingers:STYLEHELPER id="FFSH2" IfBrowser="chrome" Content="Using Chrome" runat="server" /></h1>  
                       <h2><%="Test Inline Value"%></h2>  
                   </div>
  
 
   The <%= %> in the H2 also causes a postback on drag and drop, but there is something else.  
   Empty panes have 0 width when there's a condition, so I'm guessing DNN sees the skin as a "legacy skin".  
   DNN does not inject the sync divs it seems:  
     
     
   HTML Without inline conditions:  
   <div class="col-md-12">  
       <div class="RadAjaxPanel col-md-12 headerPane" id="dnn_dnn_HeaderPane_SyncPanelPanel">  
       <div id="dnn_HeaderPane_SyncPanel" class="">  
           <!-- 2013.2.717.40 --><div id="dnn_HeaderPane" class="DNNEmptyPane dnnSortable EditBarEmptyPane dnnModuleManager ui-sortable">  
     
   HTML Without inline conditions:  
   <div class="col-md-12">  
       <div class="RadAjaxPanel col-md-12 headerPane" id="dnn_dnn_HeaderPane_SyncPanelPanel">  
       <div id="dnn_HeaderPane_SyncPanel" class="">  
           <!-- 2013.2.717.40 --><div id="dnn_HeaderPane" class="DNNEmptyPane dnnSortable EditBarEmptyPane dnnModuleManager ui-sortable">  
     
   HTML With inline conditions the extra divs are absent ("RadAjaxPanel ").  
     
   BTW, the Xcillion skin uses bootstrap classes on the panes, which is something I never do.  
   The width of the empty pane issues is fixed by separating them, but it also shows that DNNs drag and drop CSS influences the panes.  
     
   <div id="HeaderPane" class="col-md-12 headerPane" runat="server"></div>   
     
   VS  
     
   <div class="col-md-12">  
        <div id="HeaderPane" class="col-md-12 headerPane" runat="server"></div>   
   <div>
