Login Page

Hello, Karl.

Thank you for your interest in our framework. Please pardon our delayed response.

> 1) Whenever I run my application I am redirected to user detail page. I want my first page to be the Login page (login.aspx). How can I do that?

It seems that you are using the AuthenticationActiveDirectory authentication, which is enabled by default. With this authentication type, the logon is performed automatically and the current Windows user name is used. To enable the interactive logon, swith to the AuthenticationStandard authentication. Refer to the Apply a Simple Security Strategy tutorial for details.

>2) Like your demo application I also want to have a LogOff button. Currently this link is not available in the solution I created.

The answer is the same - simply switch to AuthenticationStandard.

> 3) In you demo application user has the option make navigation either vertical or horizontal. I also want that my application should have a dropdown that allows user to switch between the two navigation.

In the MainDemo application, this functionality is handled by the ChooseTemplateController Controller. You can copy it to your ASP.NET module project "as is". By default, the code location is the following: C:\Users\Public\Documents\DevExpress 2011.2 Demos\eXpressApp Framework\MainDemo\CS\MainDemo.Module.Web\Controllers\ChooseTemplateController.cs.
