Not able to add a webpart to a wiki page on teamsites

Question

I have deployed a custom webpart to a TeamSite using Visual Studio. I get this error message when i try to insert it to the home page.

"A Web Part or Web Form Control on this Page cannot be displayed or imported. The type is not registered as safe."

I have checked the web.config and the entry for this webpart is very much there!

Any help is much appreciated! Thanks!

Answer 1

There are three places that need to be synchronized in order a SafeControls entry to work:

1) The class file's namespace + class name 2) The SafeControls entry 3) The .webpart file

Watch out with Visual Studio 2010's namespacing, as when you create a new web part it will add the webpart name to the end of the namespace. If you remove that, so that all the web parts in your project use the same namespace, you'll need to also update the SafeControls entry and .webpart file accordingly.
