the Manifest and the folder structure is nice..
and i do have some AngularJS experience so its prefect..
Just one more thing..
im looking for a way to select a Content element and get all the childs listed in the editor..
I have a Content document called Products and i want the user to be able to select which product should be featured on the page
as i understand it a Json is generated from the Row elements and then displayed on the front end.. if im not mistaken if a product is added after the json was build that product is not shown ?
if thats is the case this approched is not the way i should go about the problem..
or is it more dynamic than that?
The you can create a partial macro file (Developer section). This partial macro file should contain, something like this code.
@{
if (CurrentPage.HasValue("contentPicker")){
var node = Umbraco.Content(CurrentPage.contentPicker);
foreach(child in node.Children.Where("Visible")){
@child.Name
}
}
}
yes and no the thing is we want to use the grid system to get a wysiwyg view of the page in the backoffice..
but as i can read i cant get cshtml to render in the backoffice in the grid view..
and i could not get the Property id to get the cshtml to render the content based on ids on the front end..
@inherits Umbraco.Web.Mvc.UmbracoViewPage<dynamic>
//Getting the Model.value.id Property form the Json is fine
<pre>Game id @Model.value.id</pre>
//and i can see the Content id.. now i want to read the Id:
//this is where Things break for me..
@var page = @umbraco.content(@Model.value.id).children();
//Im not sure what to import to make the umbraco.Content
//part work from the cshtml within the Grid editor
the only possibility i can see is to expose the content list in a service so that i can access the properties in Angular...
Again thanks for your guidance... ill look for a solution
have a nice day

customizing or source, for Fanoe starter kit. ?

i dont know where to change things, in the Backend so help would be appriciated..
Hi Aki,
If you have access to the Umbraco TV website, then I think this is a good place to start. http://umbraco.tv/videos/umbraco-v7/implementor/fundamentals/grid-layouts
Another one is the documentation of the grid layout data type. https://our.umbraco.org/documentation/getting-started/backoffice/property-editors/built-in-property-editors/grid-layout
Hope this helps,

Uhh! nice thanks..

Hi Aki,
If I understand your question correctly then you want to select a item using the content picker https://our.umbraco.org/documentation/getting-started/backoffice/property-editors/built-in-property-editors/content-picker
Then you make a foreach loop that loop though each of the children to the picked item. This can you do in a partial view macro file and then add this macro to the grid layout. http://umbraco.tv/videos/umbraco-v7/implementor/working-with-umbraco-data/macros/using-macros-in-the-rte/
Hope this helps,

Hi again..
im still a bit confused.. but im getting there..
Found a Content picker In the forum that works in the new umbraco way ;)
its called http://www.love2datesingles.com/media/65352/umbraco-custom-grid-editor.zip
but you suggested to make a Macro to insert in stead.. how the content picker works i have yet to figure out ;)
As this is dragging out ill give you points,, but i hope you can help me a bit more in this thread..
the For loop to display items i want to be handled in the backoffice.. but im not sure its possible..
Hi Aki,
What I think you can do is to add the content picker to the document type where you want the user to pick the product category. http://umbraco.tv/videos/umbraco-v7/implementor/fundamentals/document-types/properties/
The you can create a partial macro file (Developer section). This partial macro file should contain, something like this code.
Where contetPicker is the alias of your property.
Hope this helps,
