    Edit preview functionality

    Hi.

    I need to know if it’s possible to edit the preview functionality, to show a parent node whit a specific nodeTypeAlias.

    Iam building a document system in umbraco, a document contains seweral childnodes of different document types, but i need to insure if a user press preview on a child document the  preview button shows the document, and not the childnode.

    A fast/psuedo code example would be great.

    Best regards
    /Jacob

    Hi Jacob,

    There's not really any built-in control of the Preview button that I know of.  Maybe you can have the templates of your child documents perform a redirect to their parent?  Not sure if it would work properly or not, but you could try.  You could test for preview mode by checking for the UMB_PREVIEW cookie and redirecting to /<parentnodeid>.aspx

    In theory, of course :)

    You could also remove the preview button programatically and replace it with your own, but would probably take some work to have it replicate the OOTB functionality
