    Model.Content.HasValue cannot find RJP MultiUrlPicker

    Using Umbraco 7

    Hi, I am replacing a uComponents multi url picker with the RJP one that I see recommended on here.

    The check variable in my code returns null and I cannot seem to use this package.

     @using RJP.MultiUrlPicker.Models;
 @inherits Umbraco.Web.Macros.PartialViewMacroPage

 @{
     var multiUrlPicker = Model.Content.GetPropertyValue<MultiUrls>("mainNavigation");
     var check = (multiUrlPicker != null) ? "not null" : "null";
     <h1>@check</h1>
 }

    I have double checked that the alias exists in the CMS on the Doctype that calls this macro, the picker has some content and republished the site. Everything seems fine there.

    I am calling the macro from the global template page on the website, is that what is causing the problem?

     @inherits Umbraco.Web.Mvc.UmbracoTemplatePage
  ......
                <div class="siteWidth">
                    <a class="menuToggle"></a>
                    @Umbraco.RenderMacro("navigationBar")
                </div>
  ......

    This is the reference in my Umbraco.Config showing that it exists:

    <mainNavigation><![CDATA[[
  {
    "id": "1100",
    "name": "Home",
    "url": "/",
    "target": "_top",
    "icon": "home.png"
  },
  {
    "id": "1121",
    "name": "Contact",
    "url": "/contact_us/",
    "target": "_top",
    "icon": "icon-picture"
  }
]]]></mainNavigation>

    This was my solution:

    var v = Umbraco.TypedContent(1151);
var multiUrlPicker = v.GetPropertyValue<MultiUrls>("mainNavigation");

    1151 is a global template page that had been set up on this website (I don't know if that is common to all Umbraco setups, but I assume it is). I need to change it to dynamically get this page's id in the future.
