I'm trying to use a content picker to select a single page but the Content Picker data type lets me select multiple nodes in the tree. I don't remember it being like that when I was messing around in 7.1.8.
Is there an alternative to select a single page or do I just have to pick the first node of the selected nodes now?
I have not had the chance to give 7.2.0 a spin myself yet. But I can imagine that it should be possible to configure the content picker in the "Developer > Data types" section if you choose the content picker and then set it to only pick 1 item?
At the momemnt it´s not posible to configure the content picker to only pick 1 item.
If need to do something now then you can use the Multi Node Tree Picker, with this you can configure minimum number of items to pick and a maximum number of items.
"Developer > Data types > Create" Give the new datype a name and choose the Multi Node Tree Picker as the Property editor.
When this is said then I think you should report is as a bug that you can´t configure the Content picker to take only one item. You can create a issue here: http://issues.umbraco.org/issues
When you have created the issue, then please link to it in this thread so people that came across this post can vote for it.
I reported the issue (http://issues.umbraco.org/issue/U4-5840) and am using the MultiNode Tree Picker for now. After looking at it, it actually might even work better for me.
Thanks for the quick replies.
No single content picker? (7.2.0)

Hope this makes any sense.

To get data of the multi node tree picker please see this documentation. http://our.umbraco.org/documentation/using-umbraco/backoffice-overview/property-editors/Built-in-Property-Editors-v7/Multinode-Treepicker
Hope this helps,
