Hello Anzar,

You need to pass the ID of the RadTileList to the persistence manager: http://www.telerik.com/help/aspnet-ajax/persistence-framework-persistencemanager.html. This will let you preserve the tiles order of the control: http://www.telerik.com/help/aspnet-ajax/persistence-framework-supported-controls.html. You can then save and load settings when needed: http://www.telerik.com/help/aspnet-ajax/persistence-framework-getting-started.html. With Q3 2013 also the selected state of the tiles will be preserved.

Hi,

RadPersistenceManager will save the state of the TileList control and thus this has been possible since its creation. What you need to do is the following:

• ensure the Tiles collection is the same each time so the state can be applied
• generate a unique key for each of your users and set it (you can see in this demo that the Session ID is used as a basic example: http://demos.telerik.com/aspnet-ajax/tilelist/examples/application-scenarios/persisting-tilelist-settings/defaultcs.aspx)
• OR, create a custom persistence provider that will use keys generated by you and store into a database according to your preferences: http://docs.telerik.com/devtools/aspnet-ajax/controls/persistenceframework/functionality/-custom-storage-provider. The default way this works is via an XML file in the App_Data folder named according to the Key provided by the developer.
