    checking if uComponents Url Pickter is empty

    Hi,

    I'm having a problem checking if a Url Picker property is empty or not:

    @if (Model.Content.HasValue("announcementLink"))
    {   
        <h3>Link</h3>        
        if (CurrentPage.announcementLink.XPath("//link-title").InnerText != "")
        {                     
                <i class="icon-link"></i> <a href="@CurrentPage.announcementLink.url" title="@CurrentPage.announcementLink.XPath("link-title").InnerText" target="_blank">
                    @CurrentPage.announcementLink.XPath("//link-title").InnerText
                </a>    
         }
         else
         {                     
                <i class="icon-link"></i> <a href="@CurrentPage.announcementLink.url" title="@CurrentPage.announcementLink.url" target="_blank">
                    @CurrentPage.announcementLink.url
                </a>
         }

    Although my link property is empty is still passes this condition:

    @if (Model.Content.HasValue("announcementLink"))

    Does anyone have an idea how to solve this?

    Thanks for your help,

    Anthony

    Hey Anthony,

    Are you using Umbraco v6 and uComponents v6? There is a code sample here

    Thanks Jeavon, I upgrade from uComponents 5.5.0 to uComponents 6.0.0. I'm using the property converter and everything works fine now:

    @if (Model.Content.HasValue("announcementLink"))
      {
            var urlPicker = Model.Content.GetPropertyValue<UrlPickerState>("announcementLink");
            if (urlPicker.Url != "")
            {
                <h3>Link</h3>        
                if (urlPicker.Title != null)
                {                     
                        <i class="icon-link"></i> <a href="@urlPicker.Url" title="@urlPicker.Title" target="_blank">
                            @urlPicker.Title
                        </a>    
                 }
                 else
                 {                     
                        <i class="icon-link"></i> <a href="@urlPicker.Url" title="@urlPicker.Url" target="_blank">
                            @urlPicker.Url
                        </a>
                 }
            }
        }

    the code sample is a great resource!

    greetings,

    Anthony

    Awesome, that code sample is my only contribution to the uComponents documentation (so far) :-)
