Question

In Sitecore how can I access all statically bound sublayouts from the code behind of an ASCX or and ASPX without knowing the ids?

Answer 1

foreach(var c in this.Controls){
  if(c is Sublayout) {
    var sl = (Sublayout)c;
  }
}

Or with LINQ:

var sublayouts = this.Controls.Where(c => (c is Sublayout)).Select(c = > (Sublayout)c);

UPDATE:

I was trying to do this recently by getting the HtmlHead control, so I wrote a blog post on how to do it. I just realized you can do something similar for sublayouts.

Here’s a utility method to get controls on the page by their type:

WebUtil.FindControlsOfType(typeof(Sublayout), Sitecore.Context.Page.Page)
