• BI{code} ?

  you can change all the default texts as shown here: http://aspnetawesome.com/learn/mvc/general#Changing-default-settings or if you have many languages you can use this approach: http://aspnetawesome.com/learn/mvc/general#Localizing-default-texts for the multilookup title you need this (put this on App_Start): Settings.GetText = GetTranslate; ... private static string GetTranslate(string type, string key) { if (type == "MultiLookup" && key == "Title") return Mui.EffectiveDate; //common stuff switch (key) { case "CancelText": return Mui.Cancel; case "YesText": return Mui.Yes; case "NoText": return Mui.No; case "MoreText": return Mui.more; case "SearchText": return Mui.Search; } return null; } if you need to set the text just for one specific multilookup you can also use the helper extension .Title(Mui.EffectiveDate)

  • Sorry I misunderstood your example. I would like to have a localized title set on my input with an attribute.

  • there's no attribute for that, you can use [AdditionalMetadata("key", "value")] to send additional data and set the title using .Title, you can access it in the editor template like this: ViewData.ModelMetadata.AdditionalValues
