Hi,

I'm new to C# ASP.NET and umbraco.

Im trying to find the code behind codes for each of the aspx files but can't seem to find it.

Thanks.

You probably are using the binaries. There are no code-behind files in there, because all code is compiled into dll's
For normal use of umbraco, you will not need the codebehind-files. On the other hand, they can give you quite some help to understand how some things work.
So, if you want the code, you can download it on codeplex.

Cheers,

Hi legendlink,

Depends on your download whether source is included.
You can get the source by downloading the latest change set from codeplex.

Oh, btw, welcome to umbraco.

Maybe it would be nice to tell what you're after. As umbraco is a complete 'framework' for building state-of-the-art (cms) websites, you don't actually need the source to run umbraco. In fact, it is advised to first have a look at how the system 'works'. Once you get to know the basics and want to go beyond, then it is defenitely a good idea to get the source and play with it.

You may find nice umbraco related tutorials and how-to's, although we're aware of the fact that documentation still lacks. Don't get disencouraged by that, just ask your questions in this forum. Lots of friendly people will answer any question.

Good luck on your journey.
Regards,
/Dirk

How clumsy of me. I opened the binaries in Visual studio instead of the source codes. hehe....

Btw im planning to have a website with articles, classified ads, and also special users can post articles in a specific part of the website.

Im still canvassing open source CMS in .NET weighing what is the best and easiest way to do this.

Yeah I have some hard time getting to know umbraco since it lacks documentation and documentation is not centralized. thankfully now i know the basics, but some parts are still a big question mark for me. I'll just ask here in the forums if i had some troubles.

Thanks for your replies :)
