    Templates, (partial) views and macros
    Umbraco 7

    Hi all just starting to make use of custom controllers in Umbraco and fairly new to MVC, I would like to render content in a partial view via ContentAtXPath i.e var newsArticles = Umbraco.ContentAtXPath("//news"); how do i pass content from ContentAtXPath to the partial view ?

    thanks Dibs

    I'm not entirely shore what you mean.

    Normaly I have a partial view in my template like @Html.Partial("whatever")

    On that partial you could do:

    var newsArticles = Umbraco.ContentAtXPath("//news");

var property = newsArticles.GetPropertyValue("someproperty");

    Does that answer your question?

    Hi Frans

    I would like to make use of my views to only display data/content passed to it rather then get and display in the view.

    I just want to know how to pass the list of new articles or list of any content to a view. Then loop through the content passed to it via a foreach statement

    hope that makes sense

    Thanks Dibs

    In that case you could do the following:

    Template: 

    var newsArticles = Umbraco.ContentAtXPath("//news");
@Html.Partial("myView", newsArticles);

    Partial view:

        @model IPublishedContent

@foreach(var item in model.Children)
{
//Do stuff
}

    Although I would keep the foreach in the template and pass the child to the partial view like so:

    var newsArticles = Umbraco.ContentAtXPath("//news");

foreach(var article in newsArticles)
{
    @Html.Partial("myView", article);
}

    Cheers Frans

    I am now able to render content by creating a model (docType.cs) and add custom property (IEnumerable

    Thanks Dibs
