I have finished creating my first property editor for Umbraco 7 and am very impressed at how simple and easy it is to make. Using the assetsService via Angular dependency injection makes adding dependencies on third-party libraries very easy. I must say I am really falling in love with Umbraco 7 so far!
The property editor is pretty simple and just allows for the selection of a Font Awesome icon, using select2 to create a searchable dropdown. You can check it out and grab the source here:
The best way to share with the community, would be to make a package, and upload it to a project page here on our.umbraco.org - the package is located in developer / packages -> create

Make it as a package, it's looks really nice, so please upload it! :-D
Hi Doug
Do you know of a quick fix to make it work with the ArcheType datatype?
If added to archetype, it renders perfectly but there seems to be an issue in storing the selected value along with Archetype..
any ideas?

Did the problems with the Archetype get resolved? That's exactly where I'd like to use it.
It doesn't seem to be working well with Umbraco 7.2.1. I've just posted and issue.

I'm using Font Awesome with the Archetype package and Umbraco 7.2.1 and it's displaying the correct icons for me.
This is great! Working just fine on Umbraco 7.4.1!
is working on a reply...
