Additional

The package depends on these assemblies from Sitefinity:

• Telerik.Sitefinity
• Telerik.Sitefinity.Model
• Telerik.Sitefinity.Utilities
• Telerik.OpenAccess

You may need to add <assemblyBinding /> configurations:

<dependentAssembly>
  <assemblyIdentity name="Telerik.Sitefinity" publicKeyToken="b28c218413bdf563" culture="neutral" />
  <bindingRedirect oldVersion="0.0.0.0-<sfVersion>" newVersion="<sfVersion>" />
</dependentAssembly>
<dependentAssembly>
  <assemblyIdentity name="Telerik.Sitefinity.Model" publicKeyToken="b28c218413bdf563" culture="neutral" />
  <bindingRedirect oldVersion="0.0.0.0-<sfVersion>" newVersion="<sfVersion>" />
</dependentAssembly>
<dependentAssembly>
  <assemblyIdentity name="Telerik.Sitefinity.Utilities" publicKeyToken="b28c218413bdf563" culture="neutral" />
  <bindingRedirect oldVersion="0.0.0.0-<sfVersion>" newVersion="<sfVersion>" />
</dependentAssembly>
<dependentAssembly>
  <assemblyIdentity name="Telerik.OpenAccess" publicKeyToken="b28c218413bdf563" culture="neutral" />
  <bindingRedirect oldVersion="0.0.0.0-<openAccessVersion>" newVersion="<openAccessVersion>" />
</dependentAssembly>
<dependentAssembly>

where <sfVersion> is the version of the Sitefinty in the project. and <openAccessVersion> is the version of the Telerik.OpenAccess assembly.

There are several ways to identify which version of sitefinity you are using

1. If you have access to the backend - open the licensing page (under Administration).
2. At the home page open the page source and search for meta tag <meta name="Generator" content="Sitefinity 8.1.5800.0 PU" />
3. In Visual Studio, expand the references of the project, find Telerik.Sitefinity , Right click > properties
