Macro to fetch property values.

Hi,

I have used articulate package for blog. I wanted to know how to write partial view to fetch data or value of properties. Below is the screenshot:

These properties are in Archive.

var root = Umbraco.TypedContentAtRoot().Single(x => x.DocumentTypeAlias == "Articulate");

<h1>@root.GetPropertyValue("name")</h1>

<h1>@root.GetPropertyValue("blogDescription")</h1>

Iam able to fetch property values for blog but not for archive.

Thanks,

Manasa

Hi Manasa,

I have had time to have a look at this, and try to find a solution for you, and I think for you.

Try to use this code and see if it works for you.
```
@{
    var root = Umbraco.TypedContentAtRoot().DescendantsOrSelf("ArticulateArchive").FirstOrDefault();
    
    <h1>@root.GetPropertyValue("name")</h1>
    <h1>@root.GetPropertyValue("blogDescription")</h1>
}
```
Hope this helps,

Dennis,

If i gotta loop for multiple times, how can I do it. Coz when I tried

@{

var blogs = Umbraco.TypedContentAtRoot().DescendantsOrSelf("ArticulateRichText").FirstOrDefault();

foreach(var blog in blogs) {

<h4><a href="@blogs.Url" target="_top">@blogs.Name</a></h4>

<p>@blogs.GetPropertyValue("publishedDate")</p>

<p>@blogs.GetPropertyValue("excerpt")</p>

}

}

I get a error. foreach statement cannot operate on Umbraco.Core.Models.IPublishedContent .

Thanks,

Manasa

Hi Manasa.

Try this snippet of codes and see if it gives you the results that you want.

@{

    var blogs = Umbraco.TypedContentAtRoot().DescendantsOrSelf("ArticulateArchive").FirstOrDefault();
        
        foreach (var blog in blogs.Children.Where(x => x.IsVisible())){ 
            <h4><a href="@blog.Url" target="_top">@blogs.Name</a></h4>
            <p>@blog.GetPropertyValue("publishedDate")</p>
            <p>@blog.GetPropertyValue("excerpt")</p>

        }
}

Hope this helps,
