    Getting an Item from site route on any page

    Hi I am using umbraco 8, on some sub pages I want to call an item from the home page call it phoneNumber.

    I know I can use the fall back

    @Model.Value("phoneNumber", fallback:GallbackToAncestors)

    But is there any way to just call it directly from the page it is on rather than the fallback.

    Cheers

    You can access that node directly from the umbraco helper, assuming that the homenode is at the root: 

     var homenode = Umbraco.ContentAtRoot().FirstOrDefault();
 var telephone = homenode.Value("telephone");

    or if, it's a child of the root node:

    var rootNode = Umbraco.ContentAtRoot().FirstOrDefault();
var homeNode = rootNode.Children().Where(x => x.ContentType.Alias == "homeNodeContentAlias").FirstOrDefault();
var telephone = homeNode.Value("telephone");

    Replace "homeNodeContentAlias" with the node content alias.

    or relative, from current node:

    var homeNode = Model.AncestorOrSelf(1);
var telephone = homeNode.Value("telephone")
