Hello, I am new to Umbraco, but I must say this CMS is a piece of art!

I've already installed a number of packages & I am working on my first site. I've been searching the forums but haven't found anything concrete yet, so I figured I'd ask quick. I will keep on searching, but I was hoping for a quick

I have a number of asp.net applications already written. They use custom .net usercontrols for the front-end.

Is there a quick way of incorporating those pages into Umbraco? Maybe by inheriting another class?

Any suggestions on ways to incorporate this?

Thanks in advance,

Mole

UserControls can be referenced and added through Macros very quickly. Simply copy your UserControls to the site, specify the path to the ascx in the Macro, and add properties for the exposed user control properties.

To place them on a page, you can either use them in a template, or directly in the Rich Text Editor (you have to enable this on the macro though).

Be sure to copy the bin for your user controls to the umbraco bin.
