Does anyone have any simple instructions on how to modify the Shortlist module to include custom attributes. I want to be show 3 or 4 additional fields if I can. Thank you.

Hi Gary, In the current version of DMX the attribute names are output as the names of columns. So if you added a custom attribute 'ProjectID' you should be able to add a column on the shortlist called ProjectID. You need to know how to write this in asp.net of course. Peter

Hi Peter, is there any examples around showing how to say add the ProductsID to the shortlist view. If I can see just one example with the ProductsID I can then follow and change the ASP myself. Thank you for your help so far. Gary.

Hi Gary, No there isn't. But the control uses standard asp.net controls, in this case the DataGrid control. You will need to know how to use this. Note you also need to restart the application after you've added a custom attribute to make sure it appears in all the lists. Peter

Hi Vinod, Best is to contact me by email for a customization request. It's not a lot of work, but it's hard to explain in a couple of lines here, especially if you're unfamiliar with asp.net. I believe all that you want can be done (although generating a thumbnail from files other than regular images is going to be tricky/costly). Send your email to peter at bring2mind dot net. Peter

Hi Peter, Thanks for response I found the Moduel insteller and change the CSS in Resources.zip changes the background-color to white in module.css and removed the <%# CType(DataBinder.Eval(Container, "DataItem.LastModified"), Date).ToString("d") %> <%# IIF(DataBinder.Eval(Container, "DataItem.EntryType").StartsWith("File"), Bring2mind.DNN.Modules.DMX.Common.Globals.FormatSize(DataBinder.Eval(Container, "DataItem.FileSize")), "") %> so I can see only list of the items. thanks for response. Here I am not ending my issue. still remain thumnail issue.

Yes, the thumbnail is another story. That will require a bit of programming to do. Peter
