How to access current dashboard tab in Umbraco?


In the Umbraco, if I have a custom Dashboard content tab pointing to an ascx control, how do I determine in the code which tab is accessing the control?
I would like to re-use the same control for different tabs with slight differences.


Solution

  • This didn't work: passing a parameter through on the path to the ascx... e.g.

      <section ...> <tab ...> <control ...>  `landing.ascx?tab=importer`
    

    But this will:

    Create a page e.g. landing-importer.ascx and in that page include the landing.ascx control you want with the correct parameter.
