    How to use Content Picker in Umbraco 5 - quick fix

    This was causing me such a headache today although I am hungover ;-S sooo I thought I'd share it.

    It's probably statement of the bleeding obvious for most but atleast newbies will find it.I found that the shortest way to pull in code from a content picker was the following:

    @Umbraco.GetDynamicContentById(DynamicModel.ContentPickerProperty).SomePropertyFromContentPage

     

    Hope this helps

    Thanks, Paul Stoker. :)

    I was implemented this way:            

     if (CurrentPage. teaserBox  != "string$_(null)")
     {

     var teaserBoxStringId = CurrentPage.teaserBox as string;  

    Content teaserBoxNode = Hive.Content.GetById(teaserBoxStringId);

    // Do something with  teaserBoxNode ...

     }

    PS. "teaserBox" is a name of property by using content picker data type in CurrentPage.

    Cheer.
