Hi Kate,

"link3" must be the alias of your property in your document type, so you would need to update the property in the document type?

Is this property using a uComponents URLPicker property editor?

Hi Jeavon

"link3" is the alias of my property in my document type :-)

And yes, im using the uComponents URLPicker :-)

Ok, so if you want your code to be:

@{
string target = Model.propNameRazor.NewWindow ? " target=\"_blank\"" : "";
<a href="@Model.propNameRazor.Url" title="@Model.propNameRazor.Title" target="@target">
@Model.propNameRazor.Title
</a>
}

Just change the alias of the property in your document type to "propNameRazor"

Jeavon

You may also need to @Html.Raw your linkTarget.

This is the code sample we use for uComponents Razor Macro (without Model Binding)

@{
    if (Model.propNameRazor != null && !String.IsNullOrEmpty(Model.propNameRazor.Url))
    {
        var linkTarget = (Model.propNameRazor.NewWindow) ? " target=\"_blank\"" : string.Empty;
        <a href="@Model.propNameRazor.Url" class="someCssClass" @Html.Raw(linkTarget)>@Model.propNameRazor.Title</a>
    }
}

It still won't work.

When I write "propNameRazor" insted of "link3" it does not do anything. So do I have to declare the macro parameter in the script file?

Something like this:

var propNameRazor = Parameter.propNameRazor;

in my template i have this:

<umbraco:Macro propNameRazor="link3" Alias="RazorPicker" runat="server"></umbraco:Macro>

In my script file, when I write this:

var propNameRazor = Parameter.propNameRazor;
 <p>@propNameRazor</p>

it spits out "link3"

So I know that there is a value from the parameter. I just dont know how to conect my variable "propNameRazor" with this line:

string target =Model.link3.NewWindow?" target=\"_blank\"":"";

Ah I see, try this:

@{
    if (!string.IsNullOrWhiteSpace(Parameter.propNameRazor))
    {
        dynamic propNameRazor = Model.GetPropertyValue(Parameter.propNameRazor);

        if (propNameRazor != null && !String.IsNullOrEmpty(propNameRazor.Url))
        {
            var linkTarget = (propNameRazor.NewWindow) ? " target=\"_blank\"" : string.Empty;
            <a href="@propNameRazor.Url" class="link-1 button-link" @Html.Raw(linkTarget)>@propNameRazor.Title</a>
        }
    }
}

it gave my an error

If I just write this

dynamic propNameRazor = Model.GetPropertyValue(Parameter.propNameRazor);
 <p>@propNameRazor </p>

This is what comes out on the page:

<url-picker 
mode="Content"><new-window>False</new-window><node-id>1094</node-id><url>/uk/engelske-underside.aspx</url><link-title>Det
 er den jeg skal bruge</link-title></url-picker> 

It seems that it does not like this if-sentenst

if (propNameRazor != null && !String.IsNullOrEmpty(propNameRazor.Url))
        {
            var linkTarget = (propNameRazor.NewWindow) ? " target=\"_blank\"" : string.Empty;
            <a href="@propNameRazor.Url" class="link-1 button-link" @Html.Raw(linkTarget)>@propNameRazor.Title</a>
        }

Ah yes, you will need:

dynamic propNameRazor = new DynamicXml(Model.GetPropertyValue(Parameter.propNameRazor));

and add @using umbraco.MacroEngines at the top

Like this:

@inherits umbraco.MacroEngines.DynamicNodeContext
@using umbraco.MacroEngines 

@{
    if (!string.IsNullOrWhiteSpace(Parameter.propNameRazor))
    {
        dynamic propNameRazor = new DynamicXml(Model.GetPropertyValue(Parameter.propNameRazor));

        if (propNameRazor != null && !String.IsNullOrEmpty(propNameRazor.Url))
        {
            var linkTarget = (propNameRazor.NewWindow) ? " target=\"_blank\"" : string.Empty;
            <a href="@propNameRazor.Url" class="link-1 button-link" @Html.Raw(linkTarget)>@propNameRazor.Title</a>
        }
    }
}

Sorry, it didn't work.

can it be something with my Parameter. It's Type is set to "Text". Should that be something else?

Jubii, it works

You're my favorite person of the week :-)

Thanks for your time and patience

You're welcome and have a great weekend.

Depending on the version of uComponents you are using, you maybe able to simplify this a lot to:

@using uComponents.DataTypes.UrlPicker.Dto
@using umbraco.MacroEngines
@inherits DynamicNodeContext
@{
    if (!string.IsNullOrWhiteSpace(Parameter.propNameRazor))
    {
        var urlPicker = UrlPickerState.Deserialize(Model.GetPropertyValue(Parameter.propNameRazor));

        if (urlPicker != null && !String.IsNullOrEmpty(urlPicker.Url))
        {
            var linkTarget = (urlPicker.NewWindow) ? " target=\"_blank\"" : string.Empty;
            <a href="@urlPicker.Url" class="link-1 button-link" @Html.Raw(linkTarget)>@urlPicker.Title</a>
        }
    }
}

That works great too and it's easier to read :-)

Have a nice weekend
