    Media properties which are null

    Hi all

    I have added a new property to the Image media type called Link which is a Content Picker. It is optional.

    I'm using the contents of a media folder to populate an image slider, and therefore need the link property for the hyperlink of each slider (or not if the user decides they dont want a link for that particular image.)

    I'm using a simple partial (snippet below), but it's throwing an error if an image has no link property set.

    This is version 7.0.2. How do I handle null properties?

    @inherits Umbraco.Web.Mvc.UmbracoTemplatePage
    <ul class="example-orbit" data-orbit>
    
        @foreach (var item in @Umbraco.Media(1148).Children)
        {
        <li>
            @{
                var link = "#";
            }
            @if (null != @item.link)  // get error here
            {
                link = @Umbraco.Content(item.link).Url;
            }
            <a data-reveal-id="myModal" href="@link">
                <img src="@item.Url" alt="@item.Name" />
            </a>
        </li>
    
        }
    </ul>

    It's a known issue in v7, we're getting a 7.0.3 out very soon that will solve the problem. Sorry about that! Make sure to keep an eye on our blog to learn when it's available!

    Ah, ok. Any idea on timeframe? I've got to launch this site soon.

    Nope. Soon. Nightlies are available now with media fixes if you want to try it out, should be very stable as it's just a few little fixes on top of the 7.0.2 release: http://nightly.umbraco.org/umbraco%207.0.3/ (only dll changes, so just overwrite your bin folder).

    As I said, just copy the bin folder from the nightly and overwrite the files in your current bin folder.

    FYI: 7.0.3 was released this morning, if you're on 7.0.1 or 7.0.2 it's a super easy upgrade (basically overwrite the /bin /install /umbraco and /umbraco_client folders, step through the installer and you're done).
