Problem with dynamic content and the pagetypebuilder
Are you rendering the property containing the dynamic content with something like <%= CurrentPage.MyProperty %>? That sadly doesn't work with Dynamic content... You have to use the <EPiServer:Property /> or perhaps try something like this: http://tedgustaf.com/en/blog/2009/9/parse-an-episerver-xhtml-property-with-dynamic-content/ (havent tried it myself, especially not with UserControl-based Dynamic content)

Ah!!! I get it now, I wass only looking at the properties in the user control and not at the page that would hold the user control!
Thank you so much!

Hi everyone
I've been creating my own pages based on this tutorial: http://joelabrahamsson.com/entry/developing-with-page-type-builder-getting-started and now I'm trying to add dynamic content based on this tutorial: http://tedgustaf.com/en/blog/2011/4/creating-dynamic-content-in-episerver-cms-6-r2/
Something goes wrong and instead of showing the contents of the User Control, it seems to be literally showing the User Control, I get the name of the control and two (not functioning, not properly displayed) buttons below.
If I understand correctly, to get this to work I need to change the way I call the properties. So I tried to change "<li><%# Container.DataItem %></li>" to "<li><%# CurrentPage.PageName %><EPiServer:Property PropertyName="PageName" runat="server" /></li>" just as a test but still doesn't work :s
Can anyone tell me what I'm doing wrong?
Thanks!
