I have not used U,braco for a while and trying to get back into it.

As a simple test, I created a root document (home page) with child articles and on the template for the home page, tried to list the child documents and link to them. All worked except the child.Url returns '#' which I believe means Umbraco can't calculate the url.

The child pages are all published and can be previewed, and fields can be seen on the home page list eg 'pageTitle' ecxcept all the hrefs return '#'

Is there something I am missing?

@inherits Umbraco.Web.Mvc.UmbracoViewPage



@{
    Layout = "master.cshtml";
}

@* the fun starts here *@

@section header
{

  <header>
      <div id="logo"><a class="homelogo" href=""><img src = "@Umbraco.Media(1087).Url"></a></div>
  </header>

}



<div class="contentWrapper">
    <div class="contentInner">
        <div class="content">



@{
   var homeNode  = Umbraco.Content(1063);

   var selectionArticles = homeNode.Children.OrderByDescending(x => x.Id);

   foreach (var article in selectionArticles)
   {

     <h2>@article.Name</h2>

      var aTitle = article.Value("pageTitle");
      var aListingImage = article.Value<IPublishedContent>("listingImage").Url;
      var aPublishedDate = article.Value("publishedDate");
      var aUrl = article.Url;
      <a class="alist" title="@aTitle" href="@article.Url">@article.Url
        <div class="alistText">
            <div class="alistTextTitle">@aTitle</div>
            <div class="alistTextPublishedDate">@aPublishedDate</div>
        </div>
        <div class="alistImage"><img title = "@aTitle" src="@aListingImage"></div>
      </a>

   }
}
