I have a 6 items of the same content type "news", in each item I have a field newsIntro. I want to put the fields in specific pages on another page so I need to target a specific field so it may be newsIntro on node 1702. I have tried a few things like
@1720.newsIntro
how do I target a specific field
Thanks
There are some great resources you should take a look at while you are learning Razor:
Umbraco Razor Feature Walkthrough - An eight part blog post series of many of the new Razor features in Umbraco 4.7 with examples.
Razor DynamicNode Cheat Sheet - A PDF of all the properties and methods available to the Razor DynamicNode
object (that includes @Model
).
Cultiv Razor Examples - An Umbraco website that you can download and open with WebMatrix or IIS and see various ways to access properties with Razor.
Razor snippets - A compilation of different snippets, examples, etc. from Our Umbraco.
But in answer to your question, to get a property of a specific node you have to get the actual DynamicNode
object first, then use the property alias to access the property value. Example:
@{
//Get the node
dynamic node = Library.NodeById(1720);
// Display the property
@node.newsIntro
}
To access a property from the current page, you simply use Model
:
@Model.newsIntro
or
@Model.bodyText
or
@Model.Name
First, get an IPublishedContent object from the TypedContent method and then use GetPropertyValue to retrieve the value of the field.
@{
int nodeId = 1720;
IPublishedContent contentNode = Umbraco.TypedContent(nodeId);
var newsIntro = contentNode.GetPropertyValue("newsIntro");
}
<p>@newsIntro</p>
With Umbraco 7 I used this code to get property from different pages:
@Umbraco.Content(1720).newsIntro
If the content item 1720 is a parent or ancestor of the page where you want to use the value, you can get it recursively like this:
@Umbraco.Field("newsIntro", recursive: true)
To get fields from content I have used this:
@{
var selection = Umbraco.TypedContent(contentId).Children()
.Where(x => x.IsVisible())
.OrderBy("CreateDate");
}
@foreach(var item in selection){
@item.GetPropertyValue("fieldName1")
@item.GetPropertyValue("fieldName2")
@item.GetPropertyValue("fieldName_N")
}
