    How to create a picker that will select from items available in a tab of a node?

    Hi!

    I'm kind of new to Umbraco. I have a content node that has a tab Available Tags. Here I can have a number of textboxes named tag1, tag2, tag3...

    Now, in a different type of content node (an article) I will have a picker of some sort where I need to be able to select tags defined above.

    Any idea how to achieve this?

    Hi Alexandru and welcome to our,

    I think that I would make this a bit different, One option is th use the tags property editor on each article page. Take a look at the tags property editor here: http://our.umbraco.org/documentation/using-umbraco/backoffice-overview/property-editors/built-in-property-editors/Tags

    Another approach could be that you create a settings folder document type, and then create a document type e.g called tagitem, on this you add a property using the textstring where the user can add the text for the tag. So remember to allow the tag item as children in the settings folder document type

    So in your content tree you have a folder called e.g setting, and in this folder you creates the tags items. If you do it this way then you can add a property to the article document type using the Multi-Node Tree Picker, take a look at the documentation for this here: http://our.umbraco.org/documentation/using-umbraco/backoffice-overview/property-editors/built-in-property-editors/Multi-Node-Tree-Picker

    Hope this helps, and make sense, if you have any further questions don't hesitate to ask again
