Hi kusum,

Would it be possible for you to share a screenshot of you content tree of the pages that you want to display?

And also let us know on which page you want the data to be outputted.

Best,

/Dennis

Hello Denis,
```
Config
   EN
     Page one
         sub page 1
              Sub 1.1
              Sub 1.2
         sub page 2
              Sub 2.1
              Sub 2.2
```
When I am in page sub page 1, the menu should have the values sub page 1 and sub page 2.

The menu should be same when I am in the page sub 1.1. that is menu should have the values sub page 1 and sub page 2.

Please let me know if I am not clear.

Thanks,

kusum

Hi Kusum

The best way to do this is to find the parent you are interested in by document type alias.

Home page
```
IPublishedContent homePage = Model.Content.AncestorOrSelf("Home");
```
Blog list page
```
IPublishedContent blog = Model.Content.AncestorOrSelf("Blog");
```
See this link for more details. http://www.codeshare.co.uk/blog/how-to-find-the-home-page-in-umbraco/

Cheers

Then you can use:
```
Model.Content.AncestorOrSelf(2);
```
Just change the number accordingly for the correct level.

Tried and getting error :

Compiler Error Message: CS1579: foreach statement cannot operate on variables of type 'Umbraco.Core.Models.IPublishedContent' because 'Umbraco.Core.Models.IPublishedContent' does not contain a public definition for 'GetEnumerator'

What is at the top of your view?

Have you got?
```
@inherits Umbraco.Web.Mvc.UmbracoTemplatePage
```
Try putting this somewhere in the view to render out the name.
```
@Model.Content.AncestorOrSelf(2).Name
```

In a partial view you do it like this:
```
@inherits UmbracoViewPage

@Umbraco.AssignedContentItem.AncestorOrSelf(2).Name
```
