    How to get all tabs and properties in a single loop

    Hi,

    I have one document type with a lot of tabs and properties I wan't to iterate and display all the value, I use Template.

    @foreach(var page in CurrentPage) { // display some text or Image }

    How can I iterate the other tabs and properties?

    I'm not quite clear what you are trying to do, but you can iterate all the properties of the current page like this:

    @{
    foreach (var prop in Model.Content.Properties)
    {
        <p>
            @prop.PropertyTypeAlias =  @prop.Value
        </p>
    }
}

    Somewhat related, I recently needed to iterate properties from specific composition tabs. This can be done like so:

    var tabs = Services.ContentTypeService.GetContentType("your_alias").CompositionPropertyGroups;

tabs.ForEach(tab =>
{
    tab.PropertyTypes.Where(prop => propRegEx.IsMatch(prop.Alias)).ForEach(prop =>
    {
        ... property logic ...
    });
});

    Using propRegEx as a regular expression for matching certain tab names. Might be useful for some as well...

    That's handy, Roelof, but people should be aware that you shouldn't really use back-end services (like ContentTypeService) for front-end queries as it hits the DB hard. It's fine for back-office or custom stuff, of course.

    Good point Dan, I guess I should have elaborated that. We use it within a custom page save event. I thought it might be handy to mention if someone was looking for properties related to tabs, as I often find useful info too here on the forum. New to sharing information here, so I will think it through better next time ;-)
