I'm trying to create a very simple polling form and I thought of having a go at it using razor instead of using an external control.
I've created a form that lists one question and a list of answers and when we press submit we go to the page that calls the razor script that handles the results.
What I want to do is loop through all the answers and increment their counter by one. There is a numeric property called "Counter" on each Answer object.
However that keeps failing. If I do:
var objAnswer = @Model.NodeById(Int32.Parse(submittedAnswer));
objAnswer.getProperty("Counter").Value++;
or similar ways, they all fail. What is weird is that objAnswer.getProperty("Counter") does contain a number, but when I try to set it I get this error:
umbraco.MacroEngines.DynamicNull' does not contain a definition for 'Value'
I get I've also tried with
Document post = new Document(objAnswer.Id);
post.Publish(user);
but that fails as well.
Is there an easy way of achieving this?
The answer is this!!
Document doc = new Document(objAnswer.Id);
doc.getProperty("counter").Value = 34;
umbraco.BusinessLogic.User author = umbraco.BusinessLogic.User.GetUser(0);
doc.Publish(author);
umbraco.library.UpdateDocumentCache(doc.Id);
Not that the property needs to be lower case.
