Look at this post : http://our.umbraco.org/forum/umbraco-7/using-umbraco-7/57240-UmbracoApiController-accessing-RTE-with-Macro-Error

And then in the reply from Shannon. Never tried this before so don't know if it's going to work.

Maybe you can update us on your progress

Hi Dave,

Thanks for the reply. I've not got this to work yet. From the link it looks like the same issue.

From the post:

"Use theNode.GetProperty("bodyContent").Value; - IIRC this does not use value converters and will return the raw string"

Does not work.

"Lastly, the better way to deal with this would just be to create a PublishedContentRequest, but that isn't a public API until 7.2: http://issues.umbraco.org/issue/U4-5627"

I've downloaded the source for 7.2 and i cannot see how i can create a PublishedContentRequest. Heres the public constructor

        public PublishedContentRequest(Uri uri, RoutingContext routingContext)
        {
            if (uri == null) throw new ArgumentNullException("uri");
            if (routingContext == null) throw new ArgumentNullException("routingContext");

            Uri = uri;
            RoutingContext = routingContext;

            _engine = new PublishedContentRequestEngine(this);

                    RenderingEngine = RenderingEngine.Unknown;
        }

However i dont know how to provide the routingContext as its constructor is marked as internal. Any ideas how to provide this?

cheers,

Mark

Hi Mark,

I'm facing the same issue. Are you able to find some solution for this problem?

Hi Rizan,

Sorry for the late reply. No i did not get it to work - actually i had some tight deadlines and went around the problem. But i would be very intrested if anyone can get this to work with an examlpe also.

cheers,

mark

anyone resolve this?

Hey Guys, I understand that this is mega late in the game but this is how I am getting around the issues ( be gentle with me its my first post )

var umbracoHelper = new UmbracoHelper(UmbracoContext);
var page = umbracoHelper.Content( Id );

UmbracoContext.PublishedContentRequest = 
                new PublishedContentRequest(url,  UmbracoContext.RoutingContext);

 UmbracoContext.PublishedContentRequest.Prepare();

 var publishedContent = UmbracoContext.PublishedContentRequest.PublishedContent;

I have a form macro in content that I tested this with and it seems to render it just fine.

Id = Id of content url = Uri of content that I make up from page and Request.RequestUri

is working on a reply...
