Quick Start

Install Package

dotnet add package Umbraco.Community.SimpleWorkspaceViews

Register WorkspaceView

By default, this will display in the content section for Admins only.

BasicWorkspaceView.cs
using Umbraco.Community.SimpleWorkspaceViews.Core;
public class BasicWorkspaceView : SimpleWorkspaceView { }

Create View

  • Your view must go in /Views/WorkspaceViews
  • You view must be the name of your C# class (without WorkspaceView)
    • For example: BasicWorkspaceView.cs => /Views/WorkspaceViews/Basic.cshtml
Views/WorkspaceViews/Basic.cs
@inherits Umbraco.Community.SimpleWorkspaceViews.Web.WorkspaceViewViewPage


<uui-box headline="Hello Umbraco">
    <p>My WorkspaceView is: @Model.WorkspaceView.Alias</p>
</uui-box>
