Hi All,

I'm attempting to develop my first module and am having trouble getting the module settings to save.
In my ModuleSettingsBase I defined a bunch of properties like this:
public string Setting1
{
get{
     if (Settings.Contains("Setting1")) return Settings["Setting1"].ToString();
     return string.Empty;
}
set{
     var mc = new ModuleController();
     mc.UpdateModuleSetting(ModuleId, "Setting1", value.ToString());
}
}

And in my Settings.ascx I just assign a value from the appropriate text field (in UpdateSettings() method):
Setting1 = textField.Text

I read through a bunch of articles. They all seem to do it in a similar way. Can't figure out what's missing ....
Thx in advance for help and/or pointers!

Hi Marcus

In the get part, first you are returning "return Settings["Setting1"].ToString()" and again immediately your are returning "return string.Empty;", so the final value returning is null.
So, try by removing "return string.Empty".
Hopefully, it may do the trick.

Thanks,

This was likely a bug that was fixed in the most recent release of the templates
