Hi Luke

Hmm if I remember correctly you should actually use pageID - try that out perhaps? - Must admit it's been a while since I attended level 2 certification and since I'm a frontend dev. it's not that often I find myself doing binding so I may be way offroad - but worth the try, right? :)

The control doesn't have that property?

Hi Luke,

Do you get any error message? :)

Hi, Luke. How does the collection that you use as a datasource look? Your repeater looks ok, it seems that you need to make sure that its datasource is not empty and each of its members has a property named "Id".

The datasource is an arraylist of nodes, I know it works because if I just declare <%# Eval("Id")%> it works on the screen so it's just the umbraco tags that don't seem to work with a node that isn't the current page?

I found the bug in Umbraco that's causing this to not work correctly. Please keep in mind that this fix isn't sanctioned by the Umbraco team but I've created a pull request that I hope they will accept soon and publish an official release containing this amongst any other fixes they have in the oven.

Hey... does this problem also occurs on 4.7.2

I have the same problem.. 

i have in my template: 

<umbraco:item ID="Body" runat="server" Field="body" NodeId="<%= this.NodeId %>"  />       

in my codebehind, try to add a dynamically nodeId..

I even tried doing it using the object... lik Body.NodeId = '1234';

But it doesnt render anything... 

If i put a hard nodeID in the control like this, it renderd correctly...:

<umbraco:item ID="Body" runat="server" Field="body" NodeId="2245" />        

Where can i find the fixed dll?

dont worry.. i found it!! thanks

is working on a reply...
