In my content tree i have a main site node with a bunch of separate subsite nodes. The main site and subsite nodes have difference doctypes so i can restrict subsite allowed doctypes (sadly required).
main site
subsite1
subsite2
etc..
On both doctypes i have Site Setting properties which i need to access.
I thought the following code would work but it doesn't when i am deeper in the content tree. There is no error but a bool will return false even though it is false.
I can't use AncestorOrSelf("FrontPage") because i also have the subsite "SubsiteFrontPage" doctype so i really need to access the root without specifying doctype.
Problem getting root property values from pages deeper in the content tree

use
bool showSearch = Model.Content.AncestorOrSelf(1).GetPropertyValue
this gets the Root Node of the actual Node
or use
IEnumerable
to get all Nodes at Root Level.

Cheers mate. That did the trick. Lots of frustration prevented :)
