I am using umbraco 4.0.4.1 and I want to make a macro to list files in a specific media folder. The contenteditor can add the macro in the editor and choose the folder from where he want's to list the content. I am using the currentMedia parameter type in the macro. My problem is when I select a folder currentMedia does not return anything. I have this xslt where folder is the currentMedia type.
<xsl:copy-of select="/macro/folder"/>
When is choose a specific file it returns the file name and location , but when I choose a folder it returns nothing.
I have tried debugging the macro by adding ?umbDebug=true which returns this:
Select media folder in macro with currentMedia

Hi Christian,
You should be able to do something like this:
<xsl:variable name="folderNode" select="umbraco.library:GetMedia(/macro/Mappe/node/@id, true())" /> <!-- Process nodes in folder --> <xsl:apply-templates select="$folderNode/node" /> <!-- Output for a single Image <xsl:template match="node[@nodeTypeAlias = 'Image']"> <img src="{data[@alias = 'umbracoFile']}" width="{data[@alias = 'umbracoWidth']}" height="{data[@alias = 'umbracoHeight']}" /> </xsl:template> <!-- Templates for other types ... -->/Chriztian
Yeah - there was a glitch in The Matrix as I posted that... should be:
<xsl:variable name="folderNode" select="umbraco.library:GetMedia(/macro/Mappe/node/@id, true())" /> <!-- Process nodes in folder --> <xsl:apply-templates select="$folderNode/node" /> <!-- Template for a single Image --> <xsl:template match="node[@nodeTypeAlias = 'Image']"> <img src="{data[@alias = 'umbracoFile']}" width="{data[@alias = 'umbracoWidth']}" height="{data[@alias = 'umbracoHeight']}" /> </xsl:template> <!-- Templates for other types ... -->/Chriztian
Thank you Chriztian. Worked like a charm :)
