    Umbraco 7 Listview

    I have a doc type that has the "Enable List View" checked. The items that appear in the list view can contain children, for example comments.

    When I am using the list view and I find the item, how do I then see the child items?

    Am I missing something, it's been one of those days, so must be something simple I am missing!

    Hmmm. My first instinct is to enable list view on the document types of those child items.

    Yeah I have done that, and there appears to be no way to view child items, from an item that is on the list view.

    Consider the following structure:

    Home
    - Questions --> Doctype has listview enabled
    -- Does it work? --> Doctype has listview enabled
    --- Answer1
    --- Answer2

    So when you click the Questions node you see a list, first item is "Does it work" which also has a listview on it showing you "Answer1" and "Answer2".

    Thanks, I hadn't enabled the list view on the child items, which are children of "Questions"

    And if you don't want to have listview enabled on the doctypes for your subpages (if you want to use the same doctype in other contexts), you can add a property with a list view data type.

    That way you still get those pages in the tree, where it's possible.
