Recursive Related Links with Razor
Hi Guys, I'm using Umbraco 4.9.1 trying to make a Related Links Razor Macro Recursive throughout the entire site.

With XSLT or Common nodes this was simple enough, but I can't get it to work on Razor, I'm using the default Related Links code and it works great on the homepage, but it doesn't show the Related links nowhere else on the site, just the homepage.

Here's my Razor Code:
```
@{
if (Model.HasProperty("footerAccion")) {
<ul>
    @foreach (var link in @Model.FooterAccion) {
        string target = link.newwindow == "1" ? " target=\"_blank\"" : "";
        <li>
            @if (link.type == "internal") {
                <a href="@umbraco.library.NiceUrl(int.Parse(link.link))"@Html.Raw(target)>@link.title</a>
            } else {
                <a href="@link.link"@Html.Raw(target)>@link.title</a>
            }
        </li>
    }
</ul>
}
```
This works great on the homepage, but when I navigate throughout the site, even though these macros are on the master template and should be present everywhere, they appear empty. I tried solutions with AncestorOfSelf and a few other suggestions here, but no avail.

Anyone has any ideas? Thanks!

Hi Fernando,

Try this:

@{
if (Model.HasProperty("footerAccion")) {
<ul>
    @foreach (var link in Model._FooterAccion) {
        string target = link.newwindow == "1" ? " target=\"_blank\"" : "";
        <li>
            @if (link.type == "internal") {
                <a href="@umbraco.library.NiceUrl(int.Parse(link.link))"@Html.Raw(target)>@link.title</a>
            } else {
                <a href="@link.link"@Html.Raw(target)>@link.title</a>
            }
        </li>
    }
</ul>
}

The way that you can do a value recrusive, is by adding the underscore _ before the property. So Model._property. The documentation can be found here: http://our.umbraco.org/documentation/Reference/Querying/DynamicNode/Properties

Hope this helps,

/Dennis

Hi Fernando,

You can make use of
```
Model._propertyAlias
```
to get a recursive value in razor

Thanks for the replies! I'm a complete newbie with Razor.

Your suggestion works if I remove the "If" that comes with the Related Links "Stock" Script. As a reference for anyone else with this issue, adding the "_" did the trick as you guys advised.

Here is the working result:

<ul>
    @foreach (var link in @Model._footerAccion) {
        string target = link.newwindow == "1" ? " target=\"_blank\"" : "";
        <li>
            @if (link.type == "internal") {
                <a href="@umbraco.library.NiceUrl(int.Parse(link.link))"@Html.Raw(target)>@link.title</a>
            } else {
                <a href="@link.link"@Html.Raw(target)>@link.title</a>
            }
        </li>
    }
</ul>

Thanks!
