    The name 'CurrentTemplate' does not exist in the current context

    HI, there; I am very new to this Umbraco. I am creating my own controller.

     I am getting compile error: The name 'CurrentTemplate' does not exist in the current context.
    

    My Umbraco version is 7.4.

    It seems I am missing some name space or reference.

    Can someone help this please?

    Cheers Robert.

    Hi Robert,

    Make sure your controller inherits from RenderMvcController in Umbraco.Web.Mvc,

    then you will have access to the CurrentTemplate ActionResult helper to use from your hijacked controller.

    regards

    Marc
