[Solved] Unable to load sitemap into the menu

[Patrice]

hi,
I tried to load the sitemap (http://mvcsitemap.codeplex.com/)
I put into the global.asax the line of code :

SiteMapManager.SiteMaps.Register<XmlSiteMap>("MainAppSiteMap", sitemap => sitemap.LoadFrom("~/Mvc.sitemap"));
In the file Site.Master:
Html.Telerik().Menu().Name("MainMenu").BindTo("MainAppSiteMap").Render();
I also validate in my siteMap file if all the controllers and actions was right.. and they were.

it looks like the sitemap is not loaded.

Well, I did another test which was to manually add item into the menu and it worked fine.

Html.Telerik().Menu()
       .Name("Menutest")
       .Items(items =>
       {
           items.Add().Text("Item 1");
           items.Add().Text("Item 2");
       }).Render();


There is any thing special that I need to do if I want to use the menu?
