Hi George,

Media items stored in the library are culture invariant, so you can't get them for a specifice culture.

But maybe you have a media picker on culture variant content ?

Hi Dave I have it working, just wanted to know if there is another way. Always good to know more than 1 way to do something :) Regards George

Hi George,

Normally you don't need to care about cultures when getting content. That is only needed when you want to get content from another specific language.

So I would do this :

var mediaUrl = string.Empty;
var mediaItem = Model.Value<IPublishedContent>("cmsGlobalSettingsDocTypeFullWidthImage");

//// get it with fallback to another language
//var mediaItem = Model.Value<IPublishedContent>("cmsGlobalSettingsDocTypeFullWidthImage", fallback: Fallback.ToLanguage);

if (mediaItem != null)
{
    mediaUrl = mediaItem.GetCropUrl(cropAlias: "XXL", width: 2100, imageCropMode: ImageCropMode.Stretch, quality: 80);
}

Here I just get the media item for the current language. The commented out line get's it with a fallback to another language (can be configured in language set utp).

Then if a media item exisits I get the crop url from that.

Hi Dave

I should have been more specific, it is a multi-lingual website (2 languages) and the code is in a class so I don't have access to the model as I'm capturing the save event on the doctype.

As I mentioned, it works as is, I was just wondering if there was another way.
