    Backoffice UI: How do I find a child of a List View -node

    I am using List View https://docs.umbraco.com/umbraco-cms/fundamentals/backoffice/property-editors/built-in-umbraco-property-editors/listview

    Say I have structure:

    • The Team
      • John
        • John's car
      • Eric

    If The Team is using List View listing team members. How do I as an Editor in backoffice navigate to "John's car" node?

    Hi Jukka-Pekka,

    Normally there should be a content app with the children on the page that is setup to be a listview.

    Maybe a screenshot of what you are seeing can help us find the answer to your question

    Hi Jukka-Pekka,

    I think your only choice in this scenario (finding a grandchild of a listview node) is to use the global Search. I don't think the listview's search will be able to find it.

    I don't really think the listview was built with this scenario in mind, and I'm pretty sure the Content Tree won't be able to show you the node, although you might be able to edit the node as usual.

    I could not find easy way to reach children of the listview. Maybe custom Data Type that allows browse and click to descendants of a List View could be nice a Package idea. But for now, I just had to roll back to normal Tree View.

    Anyway, thanks for replies.

    Hi Jukka-Pekka,

    There is no need for a custom package. The functionality you are looking for is available out of the box.

    enter image description here

    Child items should always be available when navigating to children. If you click on that you will see the children of the current page.

    Ah of course! I can make a child Document Type also List Item so it will have "Child Items" ribbon. Thanks a lot. I never thought of this. Too bad I can only give you one h5!
