Umbraco 5.1 custom property editor and rendering the value
Umbraco version 5.1
Hello Umbraco Colleagues,
I've created a simple custom property editor as a learning exercise. It's working fine - just a textbox.
But the only way I can render the property (alias "specialText") in a template is by using this: @DynamicModel.specialText
Selecting the property through the familiar "insert an umbraco page field" DDL does not render the property. This: @Umbraco.Field("specialText") causes no errors, just no value is displayed.
Is this expected behavior? Could this be a 5.1 - Beta - thing? (I haven't tried this in 5.01.)
Is there something I should include in my property editor code to get it to render through the DDL?
