Hi lj,

You probably want to hook into the Content Service Saved event. From there, you'll be able to run some code based on what an editor is saving:

using Umbraco.Core;
using Umbraco.Core.Events;
using Umbraco.Core.Models;
using Umbraco.Core.Services;

namespace Application
{
    public class CustomEventHandler : ApplicationEventHandler
    {
        protected override void ApplicationStarted(UmbracoApplicationBase umbracoApplication, ApplicationContext applicationContext)
        {
            ContentService.Saved += delegate(IContentService sender, SaveEventArgs<IContent> args)
            {
                foreach (var content in args.SavedEntities)
                {
                    if (content.GetValue<bool>("aliasOfTrueFalseProperty"))
                    {
                        // Some custom logic when checked
                   }
                }
            };
        }
    }
}

Thanks, Dan.

Hi Dan,

Would this code run every time any page was saved and not just for pages of a specific doc type?

Thanks

lj

yeah seems like a good alternative for what im trying to achieve.  For convention what folder would you keep these classes in?

One other last question i dont know how much experience you have with custom data types and angularjs but is the only way to run server side code from angularjsby making ajax calls to umbraco web api.

Thanks

lj

You can put the classes where ever you like really. An Events folder might be good place.

I've not tried what you want but I'm guessing you'll want to write an Umbraco Web API Service to be triggered from your custom data type when updated.

Thanks, Dan.

Yeah thats exactly what I thought.

 thanks for the help.

No worries. Glad I could help :)

Thanks, Dan.
