Use custom designer with widgets

With Sitefinity CMS, you benefit from a built-in MVC designer for widgets. You can also replace the MVC widget designer you are currently using with any custom window that suits your needs.

In case you want to use your custom designer instead of the MVC designer, you can add as argument your custom URL to the DesignerUrl attribute. Thus, widgets will use the custom designer URL, specified in the attribute. To do so, set the following URL in the DesignerUrl attribute:

/Telerik.Sitefinity.Frontend/Designer/GetDesigner/[MyWidgetName]
