   using Telerik.Sitefinity.Data;

   using Telerik.Sitefinity.Data.OA;

   using Telerik.Sitefinity.Model;
4. Change the class definition to:
   public class TestimonialsMetaDataProvider : IOpenAccessMetadataProvider, IOpenAccessCustomContextProvider

   {

    

   }
5. Create the GetMetaDataSource method by pasting the following code:
   public MetadataSource GetMetaDataSource(IDatabaseMappingContext context)

   {

       return new TestimonialsFluentMetaDataSource();

   }
6. Create the GetContext method by pasting the following code:
   public SitefinityOAContext GetContext(string connectionString, Telerik.OpenAccess.BackendConfiguration backendConfig, MetadataContainer metadataContainer)

   {

       return new TestimonialsContext(connectionString, backendConfig, metadataContainer);

   }
