Saving Grid Settings Via Profile

[Sompop]

Hi there,

I am following the code from the link below. It is great. However, there are two questions that I would like to ask.
http://www.telerik.com/community/code-library/preview-thread/aspnet-ajax/grid/storing-multiple-grid-settings-in-database-via-profile.aspx

1. When I turn on AllowFilterByColumn, it works fine when I re-login. However, it does not display the value in the filter TextBox or CheckBox. For example, I put "Net 60 Days" in the filter TextBox and select "Contains". After I re-login, I see the same result, but I don't see the text "Net 60 Days" inside the filter TextBox.

2. The column reorder and sorting seem to work fine, but not for paging. How do I accomplish that?

Thank you,

Sompop

This is a profile section in my web.config.
    <profile enabled="true" defaultProvider="MyProfileProvider">
      <providers>
        <add name="MyProfileProvider" connectionStringName="myConnectionString" applicationName="/" type="System.Web.Profile.SqlProfileProvider"/>
      </providers>
      <properties>
        <add name="GridAssetSettings" allowAnonymous="false" type="GridAssetSettings" serializeAs="Binary"/>  

</properties>
    </profile>

In .cs of the page where there is a RadGrid

protected override void Render(HtmlTextWriter writer)
{
  base.Render(writer);

  GridAssetSettings gas = new GridAssetSettings();
  gas.SaveGridAssetSettingsNames(RadGridSaveGridSettingsUserBase, "RadGridSaveGridSettingsUserBase");
  Context.Profile.SetPropertyValue("GridAssetSettings", gas);
}

protected void Page_Init(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
  if (Context.Profile.GetPropertyValue("GridAssetSettings") != null)
  {
    GridAssetSettings gas = (GridAssetSettings)Context.Profile.GetPropertyValue("GridAssetSettings");

    if (gas.Names.ContainsKey("RadGridSaveGridSettingsUserBase"))
      {
         GridSettings settings = new GridSettings(RadGridSaveGridSettingsUserBase);
         settings.LoadSettings(gas.Names["RadGridSaveGridSettingsUserBase"].ToString());
      }
    }
  }
}

Hi Vincent,

You can use the GridSettingsPersister class as shown in this online example to persist the grid settings, including the filter expression, filter value and filter function for each column. To persist the filtering item data in RadGrid, you need to save and load each column's CurrentFilterFunction and CurrentFilterValue. The GridSettingsPersister does the job for you.
