Issue with AjaxControlToolkit for SharePoint 2013 Blog site template.

Hi,

Please find below the details of issue -

History - We are working with SharePoint 2013 and we are using AjaxControlToolkit in our project. Basically this is a migration project from MOSS to SharePoint 2013. So we have migrated code MOSS to SharePoint 2013. Previously in MOSS project, AjaxControlToolkit was used so after migrating we have also used AjaxControlToolkit with updated version which can work in SharePoint 2013. This is working fine now.

Scenario - There is one web application in SharePoint 2013 farm. Under this web application there are two site collections. One site collection is created with Team site template and second site collection is created with Blog site template.

There are three feature in our wsp that we have created. One feature is at web application scope (which will do web.config modifications and it will add below entry in web.config file through SPWebConfigModification in section 'configuration/system.web/compilation/assemblies' -

 <add assembly="AjaxcontrolToolkit, Version=4.5.7.725, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=28f01b0e84b6d53e" />  

). And there are two site collection features.

Now when we deploy our solution (wsp) to web application in SharePoint 2013 farm and activate the Web.Config modification feature which is at web application level, it has added above mentioned entry in web.config file.

Our application in first site collection is working fine which we are expecting but in the second site collection which is created using out of box Blog site template, 'comment box' and Post button are invisible as shown in below screen shot -



If we remove below entry from web.config file -

<add assembly="AjaxcontrolToolkit, Version=4.5.7.725, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=28f01b0e84b6d53e" /> 

and refresh the Blog site page then the Comment box and Post button is appearing again as shown in below screen shot -


We also tried with updated versions of AjaxControlToolkit (Version=4.5.7.1005 & 4.5.7.1213) but no success.

I will highly appreciate if you could help me in this.

Thanks for your time.

Thanks & Regards,

Rajendra Gaikwad.

Hi,

As you said, the issue only comes with the Blog site template.

I suggest you take a look at this blog about how to make Ajax Control Toolkit work with SharePoint 2013:

Hi Patrick,

Thanks for your reply.

Yes we have used the same procedure to use AjaxControlToolkit in SharePoint 2013. And it is also working quite well with the solution(wsp) that we have developed. Howevere if you check the issue is with specific Out of Box Blog site template which is in another site collection. So We need to find the perticular solution for that.

Issue occures when we add the entry '<add assembly="AjaxcontrolToolkit, Version=4.5.7.725, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=28f01b0e84b6d53e" />' in web.config file. And doesn't appear when we remove the respective AjaxControlToolkit entry.

In the blogs that you have shared, we have to add this entry and so issue still occures in the Blog site.

I will highly appreciate your further assistance.

Thanks & Regards,

Rajendra Gaikwad.
