Umbraco v7.4.2 / Archetype v1.12.3

Hi,

I have a partial view which shows news items on a page, i'd like to use this same partial on the page's children, how can I make it recursive to pull the news items from the parent - or is there a better way?

@inherits Umbraco.Web.Mvc.UmbracoTemplatePage
@using Archetype.Models;
@using Archetype.Extensions;

@if (Model.Content.GetPropertyValue<ArchetypeModel>("news").Any())
{
    <ul id="tape">
        @foreach (var fieldset in Model.Content.GetPropertyValue<ArchetypeModel>("news"))
{
    <li>
        <span>@fieldset.GetValue("date") -</span>
        @if (fieldset.HasValue("link"))
        {
            <a href="@fieldset.GetValue("link")"> @fieldset.GetValue("title")</a>
        }
        else
        {
            @fieldset.GetValue("title")
        }
        </li>
    }
</ul>
}

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks Kerri

Hi Kerri.

The second parameter to GetPropertyValue(string alias, bool recurse) might help you? So if you change your code to:

@if (Model.Content.GetPropertyValue<ArchetypeModel>("news", true).Any())
{
    <ul id="tape">
        @foreach (var fieldset in Model.Content.GetPropertyValue<ArchetypeModel>("news", true))
{
    <li>
        <span>@fieldset.GetValue("date") -</span>
        @if (fieldset.HasValue("link"))
        {
            <a href="@fieldset.GetValue("link")"> @fieldset.GetValue("title")</a>
        }
        else
        {
            @fieldset.GetValue("title")
        }
        </li>
    }
</ul>
}

Above code is not tested, just a thought...
