I am having problems getting the product list example to work. The problem is after you filter by product name the clear button on the Toolbar will not clear the textbox. It will clear the textbox if you don't click on the filter button first. The Northwind example here clears the textbox and loads the full list of products. I have loaded all the XML listings that are given for the page and changed the moduleid numbers but still can't get it to work. Can anyone tell me what is left of the example that makes it work right?

Figured out what the problem was instead of clearing the "listing" ListX module I was clearing the "filter" ListX module. It's hard to follow the logic of the example site when you don't know the module layout.

It would be very helpful if the ModuleID number was placed on all of the modules DNN titles. I know it would not look a nice as it does now but at least the ones that are trying to learn how to use ListX could see how to setup their own example site. I would rather see the example site look dog ugly as long as I could figure out how things were setup. If Bi4ce wants a pretty example then why not just setup a duplicate site with all the structure help so users can see what they did to make it work.

It takes a lot to learn how to use ListX and all it's goodies we shouldn't have to try and figure out how the page structure is setup.

I Agree about the frustration and the team is well aware of this but they seem to be good a making improvements. They have made a good product but have an advanced product that sometimes is difficult for beginners. The documentation is good but what good but the Northwind sample is difficult to get running at this point without a complete installation kit. I addressed this with them in the sample thread and was told they basicly messed up by making it depend on the skin and so it required a rewrite. It makes no since that we have been promised a LP for the NukeDK to help us out but still no LP.

Actually, on the contrary. The problem we are facing here is that it is important to spend a great deal of time to make quality improvements to the software. The larger problem we are facing is that we host an extensive amount of training for the product for large corporations making the adoption - which has slowed the development release cycle. We offer direct support for the product - and beyond most other module developers on the market - actually answer our phones. We provide an extremely powerful product, and training and a very reasonable price - which many persons on these forums have already experienced. While it is true that we have not released the next version of ListX as of yet, it is not that we have ignored the community. As a matter of fact, we have released new versions of our module to make enhancements to it more often than any other module - AND - most of these changes are driven by requests of people on our forums. While we have not yet released the LP version of Northwind, it is not something we have "promised and failed to provide", but rather something we have provided and promised to provide in another version as soon as possible.

As for the current version of Northwind - it is under extensive revamping and will be rereleased - but it is meant for consumption of the 1.9x version of ListX which has yet to be released from our QA department. The slow down is not a failure to actually complete what is asked, but rather - a pipeline and testing issue.

Sorry for the delay - but we do provide an extremely large amount of documentation and examples and online support through these forums. We can answer any direct question and provide in depth responses. For those of you who have found us and supported us so far, we go well out of our way to provide our time and support.
