A grid editor for Umbraco 7 that allows you to use Doc Types as a blue print for grid-cell data.

Getting Started

Installation

NuGet package repository

To install from NuGet, you can run the following command from within Visual Studio:

We also have a MyGet package repository - for bleeding-edge / development releases.

Developers Guide

For details on how to use the Doc Type Grid Editor package, please refer to our Developers Guide documentation.

Known Issues

Please be aware that not all property-editors will work within Doc Type Grid Editor. The following Umbraco core property-editors are known to have compatibility issues:

• Image Cropper
• Macro Container
• Tags
• Upload

Another known issue is that validation of property-editors within the overlay do not always work. For editors that use client-side (HTML5) validation, this may appear to work, (e.g. text input require attribute is added), but server-side validation does not work.
