    tags don't render

    Not having much success with rendering tags in my template.

    The (very simple) template looks something like this:

    @inherits Umbraco.Web.Mvc.UmbracoTemplatePage

@{
    Layout = "MasterTemplate.cshtml";
}

@{
    var topics = Model.Content.GetPropertyValue<string>("pageTopics");
    <p>This is a page about @topics</p>
}

    I hope to render something like

    This page is about TESTING, UMBRACO, CLOUD, TAGS

    But all I get is

    This page is about System.String[]

    What am I missing?

    Hi Jesper,

    Can you please give this a go.

    @if(Model.Content.pageTopics.Any()){
    <ul>
        @foreach(var tag in Model.Content.pageTopics){
            <li>@tag</li>
        }
    </ul>
}

    Also make sure that your property is called pageTopics and the property is on the page that you are render in the browser.

    Hope this helps,

    /Dennis

    Hi Dennis

    When I insert this code, preview (Umbraco Canvas Designer) displays Server Error in '/' Application. Runtime Error and some more text in yellow boxes.

    I have triple (actually more) checked. The property name is pageTopics, and my test page contains tags.

    Tags are stored as JSON, not CSV.

    I am running Umbraco Cloud.

    Can you try:

    @if(Model.Content.GetPropertyValue<IEnumerable<string>>("pageTopics") !=null){
<ul>
    @foreach(var tag in Model.Content.GetPropertyValue<IEnumerable<string>>("pageTopics")){
        <li>@tag</li>
    }
</ul>

    }

    Hi Jesper,

    Here is how you should do it:

    @inherits Umbraco.Web.Mvc.UmbracoTemplatePage

@{
    Layout = "MasterTemplate.cshtml";
    var topics = Model.Content.GetPropertyValue<string[]>("pageTopics");
}

 <p>This is a page about @string.Join(", ", topics)</p>

    If you insist on the tags being uppercase, i would to the following:

    var topics = Model.Content.GetPropertyValue<string[]>("pageTopics").Select(x=> x.ToUpperInvariant());

    In Version 8 I can not get anything to work. To get the tags as a comma seperated string. I have tried a number of C# methods but you either get Umbraco errors or not the output you expect.

    string.Join(",", rpub.Value<string>("publicationTag"));

    This returns System.String[]

    var test2 = rpub.Value<string[]>("publicationTag");

    This returns the same thing - System.String[]

    var test3 = rpub.Value<IEnumerable<string>>("publicationTag");

    This returns System.String[]

    I just want to have a clean string of the tag.Text comma separated so I can then do a .Contains inside.

    Even:

     x.Value<string>("publicationTag").Contains(tag.Text)

    Trying to filter items based on tags with a certain text does not work.

    Tags in 8 seems a bit broken.
