    How casting IPublishedContent to its derived type

    In a macro settings, featuredContent is assigned from a Content picker and it is a IContentPageBase.

    This is my code in the macro view: var content = Umbraco.Content(Model.MacroParameters["featuredContent"]) as IContentPageBase;

    but content is null. How can I get IContentPageBase from the featuredContent param value? Please help!

    Umbraco.Content should give you IPublishedContent, which should be possible to cast as the interface from ModelsBuilder.

    Can you shee if Umbraco.Content() without the casting gives you anything?
