Hi Stefan and welcome to our :)

Could you show what your content structure in Umbraco looks like? I assume that you have a product templates, which is being used for displaying a product and then you need to render the benefits in this template - But where are the benefits placed in your structure?

Thank you Jan,

yes that is all correct. Displaying the benfits within the CurrentPage is working without problems. The Benefits are a Property within the Product Type. The data type is "Grid" (that is an additional data type package from the umbraco repository). It is just a list of textstrings.

My challenge is, that i want to create a page with all Benefits from all content pages :-(

Here is a screenshot of the data type iam using for the Product Benefits. 

Best,

Stefan

Hi Stefan,

What if you try something like this did it get what you want, if not could you please share a sreenshot of how your content structure in Umbraco looks like For the example you need to add the code on your template for the overview page, where all the products is children to that page.

<div>
    @foreach(var childPage in CurrentPage.Software.Where("Visible")){
        foreach(var softwareProduct in childPage.softwareBenefit.Where("Visible")){
            <p>@softwareProduct.benefitEntry</p>
        }
    }
</div>    

I assme that you alias of the Software document type is software, if you have give it another alias the you need to change it so it match your case. And remember to change this softwareBenefit so it match your alias of the field on the page where you add the data.

You can find a razor exaple on how to get data out of the U7 Data Grid different field types here: https://our.umbraco.org/projects/backoffice-extensions/u7-grid-data-type

Hope this helps,

Hi Dennis,

my content structure looks likes this

Within the Categories (Software, Hardware, Training and Tools) are Conent Pages of one of the following types

The Product Type has a field productBenefits of Type Grid.

I can display the benefits of the current content page. So this one is working. What i want to do is to create a separate Content Page "All Benefits", which should display all found benefits within the content hierachie.

Example

Produc1 has the following benefits

* Redact a document

* convert a pdf to word

Product 2 has the following benefits

* Create Mindmaps

When someone clicks on the "All Benefits" page, the result should be

* Redact a document (Product 1 Link)

* convert a pdf to word (Product 1 Link)

* Create Mindmaps (Product 2 Link)

Basically i need to retrieve all values of the Benefit Entry of all content pages in the hierarchie.

Thank you

Stefan 

Hi Stefan,

Okay. So then I think that you should try something like this.

@{
   var root = CurrentPage.AncestorOrSelf(1).Descendants("kategorien").FirstOrDefault();
   
   <div>
       @foreach(var childPage in root.Children.Where("Visible")){
            foreach(var product in childPage.productBenefits.Where("Visible")){
                <p>@product.benefitEntry</p>
            }
        }
    </div>  
}

First we are find the kategorien page if there is more than one then we are taking the first one. Then we are looping through the children, to get all the categories (Software, Hardware, Training and Tools). On these pages we are taking the filed called productBenefit, and pull out the data in the benefitEntry.

Remember to change the kategorien in this line below, so it match your propertyAlias of the page where you have the categories (Software, Hardware, Training and Tools) as children.

var root = CurrentPage.AncestorOrSelf(1).Descendants("kategorien").FirstOrDefault();

Hope this works for you.
