Hi I am using CMS 6 and at the moment when we click on compare the only option that displays anything is the property changes.  Both of the other two options dont display anything.  has anyone else had this problem? Anyone know of any solutions?

Thanks

Gwen

Don't display anything? So no error page or anything like that? We discovered a bug that causes the compare mode to crash with an exception if the viewed page uses Session and the compare mode is differences. The other two modes (side-by-side and property changes) work though.

After further investigation we (I work with Gwen) have worked out that this is caused by turning off the context menu in plug-in manager.

We want to turn off the context menu as a shortcut to disable quick edit.

Any ideas?

Doh, forgot that EPiServer has built-in support for this :-)

http://sdk.episerver.com/library/cms5/Developers%20Guide/How%20To/Add%20and%20Remove%20Right-click%20Menu%20Items.htm

(applies to CMS 5 but should be similar in CMS 6)

Hi Arild,

to use the built in support would we need to put this code on each page type?

You could put in a base class that your pages inherit from, or perhaps in Global.asax.cs, to avoid having to put the code on every page type.
