Hello,

I am trying to create a user widget to replace the top mojoPortal bar where the WelcomeMessage...RegisterLink appear.

I want to create a widget to be called somewhere in my layout.Master like <user:Widget runat="server"... /> and then i will place inside some of the current items like <portal:UserProfileLink.../><portal:LoginLink.../> etc...

1) I have added the following to the Web.config:

<addtagPrefix="user"   tagName="Widget" src="~/Controls/User/Widget.ascx"/>

2) Created a Web User Control named Widget.ascx inside folder Controls/User/

---- Widget.ascx.cs:

using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.Linq;
using System.Web;
using System.Web.UI;
using System.Web.UI.WebControls;

namespace Xpto.Web.UI.Controls.User
{
   public partial class Widget : System.Web.UI.UserControl
   {
      protected void Page_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
      {}
   }
}

----- Widget.ascx

<%@ ControlLanguage="C#" AutoEventWireup="true" CodeBehind="Widget.ascx.cs" Inherits="Xpto.Web.UI.Controls.User.Widget" %>

<div><h1>Hello world!</h1></div>

3) I build and refresh mojo and get the following error:

System.Web.HttpParseException (0x80004005): Unknown server tag 'user:Widget'. ---> System.Web.HttpParseException (0x80004005): Unknown server tag 'user:Widget'. ---> System.Web.HttpException (0x80004005): Unknown server tag 'user:Widget'. 

What am i missing here?

Thank you in advance!
Best regards,
João

Thank you Joe, i declared it on top of the layout.master and it works!
Thanks for the hint Jamie but i want to avoid mantaining web.config.

Best regards,
