Hi,

I have three conent areas on a page. The first area renders corrently, but the other don't.

The blocks are there, but the wrapping divs and drag/drop html is missing.

@Html.PropertyFor(x => x.CurrentPage.TopContentArea, new { EditContainerClass = "blockArea topContentArea clearfix", CssClass="blockArea topContentArea clearfix", ChildrenCssClass="block" })

@Html.PropertyFor(x => x.CurrentPage.MiddleContentArea, new{ EditContainerClass = "blockArea middleContentArea clearfix", CssClass="blockArea middleContentArea clearfix", ChildrenCssClass="block" })

@Html.PropertyFor(x => x.CurrentPage.BottomContentArea, new{ EditContainerClass = "blockArea bottomContentArea clearfix", CssClass="blockArea bottomContentArea clearfix", ChildrenCssClass="block" })

Really lost here....

Thanks

you need to apply edit attributes in the controller for the properties. I got the same issue but had forgot to applyeditattribute for the properties.

This needs to be done when working with the PageViewModel in the MVC templatepackage.

var editingHints = ViewData.GetEditHints<PageViewModel<ArticlePage>, YourPageType>();

editingHints.AddConnection(m => m.CurrentPage.YourContentArea, p => p.YourContentArea);
