Related links error
I upgraded Umbraco to 7.1.4 an Archetype to the new 1.2.1 beta. And this snippet stopped working.
```
@if (fieldset.HasValue("links")) {
    foreach (var item in fieldset.GetValue<JArray>("links")) {
        var linkUrl = (item.Value<bool>("isInternal")) ? Umbraco.NiceUrl(item.Value<int>("link")) : item.Value<string>("link");
        var linkTarget = item.Value<bool>("newWindow") ? " target=\"_blank\"" : string.Empty;
        <a class="cf related-link" href="@linkUrl" @Html.Raw(linkTarget)>@(item.Value<string>("title"))</a>
    }
}
```
On the third line, Umbraco nice url want an int Umbraco.NiceUrl(item.Value<int>("link")) but i get the error

Input string was not in a correct format

And if i give it a string Umbraco.NiceUrl(item.Value<string>("link")) Umbraco Nice URL says:

The best overloaded method match for 'Umbraco.Web.UmbracoHelper.NiceUrl(int)' has some invalid arguments

Hi Johan,

Try this:

@foreach (var fieldset in Model.Content.GetPropertyValue<ArchetypeModel>("myarchetype"))
{
    if (fieldset.HasValue("links"))
    {
        foreach (var item in fieldset.GetValue<JArray>("links"))
        {
            var linkUrl = (item.Value<bool>("isInternal")) ? Umbraco.NiceUrl(item.Value<int>("internal")) : item.Value<string>("link");
            var linkTarget = item.Value<bool>("newWindow") ? "_blank" : null;
            <li><a class="cf related-link" href="@linkUrl" target="@linkTarget">@(item.Value<string>("caption"))</a></li>
        }


    }
}

I think it should solve your issue.
