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

    Hi, I have a custom model inherited from RenderModel:

     public class Prd : RenderModel
    {
        public Prd(IPublishedContent content) : base(content) { }
        public IPagedList<ProductViewModel> catalogueProd  { get; set; }
    }

    and my view is inherits 

    @inherits Umbraco.Web.Mvc.UmbracoViewPage<ScentSpider.Models.Prd>

    Now in my view when I try to use 

    @CurrentPage.GetGridHtml("ProductListLayout")

    I get an error :

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

    Any idea what I an doing wrong here. Thanks

    Hi Fahad

    You can use CurrentPage if inherits like that:

    @inherits UmbracoTemplatePage<ScentSpider.Models.Prd>

    You can find some more details here: https://our.umbraco.org/documentation/Reference/Templating/Mvc/querying

    CurrentPage is a dynamic object so the syntax will be shorter but some complex queries might not be doable with that type of object

    Model.Content is strongly typed so when you are in visual studio you can take advantage of the intellisense

    UmbracoViewPage hasn't dynamic objects and now it's a recommended way to do Umbraco development - avoid dynamics, it will be removed in version 8.

    Thanks,

    Alex

    Hi Alex, Thanks for your response , I tried to inherits from 

    @inherits UmbracoTemplatePage<ScentSpider.Models.Prd>

    But I got error :

    The type 'ScentSpider.Models.Prd' cannot be used as type parameter 'TContent' in the generic type or method 'UmbracoTemplatePage<TContent>'. There is no implicit reference conversion from 'ScentSpider.Models.Prd' to 'Umbraco.Core.Models.IPublishedContent'.    ScentSpider

    ScentSpider.Models.Prd prodList = new Models.Prd(model.Content);
            prodList .catalogueProd     = ProductHelper.Instance.GetAllCatalogueProducts();
           return CurrentTemplate(prodList );

    Can you show all controller?

    Controller code:

     public class CatalogueController : Umbraco.Web.Mvc.RenderMvcController
    {
        // GET: Catalogue
        public override ActionResult Index(RenderModel model)
        {
            ScentSpider.Models.Prd prodList= new Models.Prd(model.Content);
            prodList.catalogueProd     = ProductHelper.Instance.GetAllCatalogueProducts();
           return CurrentTemplate(prodList);
        }
}

    And my View is:

    @inherits Umbraco.Web.Mvc.UmbracoViewPage<ScentSpider.Models.Prd>

@using ContentModels = Umbraco.Web.PublishedContentModels;
@{
    Layout = "Master.cshtml";
}
@CurrentPage.GetGridHtml("ProductListLayout")

    Thanks

    Hi Alex, sorry to be a pain. As I am using custom model when I try to use 

    @Html.GetGridHtml(Model, "ProductListLayout")

    I get an error :

    Argument 2: cannot convert from 'ScentSpider.Models.Prd' to 'Umbraco.Core.Models.IPublishedProperty'

    Thanks

    Fahad, try to change your view like that:

    @inherits UmbracoViewPage

@{
    Layout = "Master.cshtml";
}
@Html.GetGridHtml(Model, "ProductListLayout")

    Because I don't see where do you use "ScentSpider.Models.Prd" model.

    Hope it will help.

    /Alex

    Fahad,

    Could you try:

    @Html.GetGridHtml("ProductListLayout")

    or

    @Model.Content.GetGridHtml("ProductListLayout")
