Multinode Treepicker not allowing root as start node
I have an install with multiple sites and I need a picker that will allow me to select the homepages. I would have used nuPickers for this in the past but they do not work with the version of umbraco I am using(8.15.2).
When I add $root into the xpath query field the picker always defaults to the current folder of the current node rather than defaulting to the root.
Example structure:
Home 1:
Blog
About
Home 2:
Blog
About
Shared Blog posts:
Post 1
Post 2
Post 3
Post 4
Post 5
In this example I would like to be able to pick a home node from within Post 4 but the MNTP defaults to the Shared Blog posts page.
Erik, that does indeed return $root without an error but the tree picker seems to still revert to the section of the page the picker is located on.
The "Shared Blog posts" section has a list view and I think this is forcing it to revert to the current list view rather than show the root of the site.

Any help on this would be greatly appreciated.
Hello Peter.
try to use this xPath instead
$currentPage/ancestor-or-self::*[@level = -1]Thanks for you suggestion Lucas, but that returns an error as the and would in theory return the same as $root anyway.
Hi,
You can try this xpath query:

Hello Peter, Did you able to find a solution? I have a multi site setup and i want to limit the MNTP for just the root nodes.
Hi Peter, Did you find any solution for this?
I would also appreciate how you did finally manage it?
