Using Umbraco And Getting Started

Umbraco 7

Hi Guys,

Just started using umbraco and i can't seem to get this package to work. I'm not using the model viewer for my site.

How can you access the values you've stored?

Here is a sample code i created

    @inherits Umbraco.Web.Mvc.UmbracoTemplatePage{
@{
    var Category = Model.Content.GetPropertyValue<MultiUrls>("categoryLinks");
}
@if (Category.Count > 0)
                            {
                              <ul>
                                @foreach (var item in Category)
                                {
                                  <li><a href="@item.Url" target="@item.Target">@item.Name</a></li>
                                }
                                </ul>
                            }
}

I am getting a parsing error for this

Can anyone point me in the right direction?

Hi John

Are you using this package - https://our.umbraco.org/projects/backoffice-extensions/multi-url-picker/ ?

All files are in place?

What error did you get?

Yes thats the package I'm using. I am getting a parsing error when I'm adding the get property value for multi urls.

All files are in place in the App_Plugins.

Add please:

@using RJP.MultiUrlPicker.Models

And what parsing error did you get?

Can you check what is storing in "categoryLinks" Umbraco field?

Hi Alex,

Thanks for the reply, have found another way to get what I want. This will do for now as I am really pressed for time.

Really appreciate the reply.

Hi John

If you are using the latest version of the Multi Url Picker package, so shouldn't use MultiUrls since it is deprecated.

Instead cast the value IEnumerable<Link> or Link if you have set maximum = 1 in the property editor config.
```
var categories = Model.Content.GetPropertyValue<IEnumerable<Link>>("categoryLinks");

var category = Model.Content.GetPropertyValue<Link>("categoryLink");
```
if you are using ModelsBuilder you can just write:
```
var categories = Model.Content.CategoryLinks;
```
or
```
var categories = myNode.CategoryLinks;
```
