    This should work

    @(Umbraco.AssignedContentItem.GetPropertyValue<IPublishedContent>("promoBackgroundImg").Url)

    Hi Paul,

    Many thanks for your help, I am able to almost complete the first site in Umbraco 7 version.

    Your videos also helped me a lot to learn: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VWy2HlRDCRM&list=PL90L_HquhD--OWQNLyO1-KRxVDd0NPBfZ

    Kind Regards

    Hi,

    The problem is that you are starting your view with

    @inherits UmbracoViewPage

    The current page property is not available then, because UmbracoViewPage only supports strongly typed content access.

    To have the CurrentPage property your view should start with

    @inherits UmbracoTemplatePage

    Then you get access to the dynamic CurrentPage object. But I would discourage you to do that.

    Please read this article I wrote for the 24 days in Umbraco which explains the difference between strongly typed and dynamic content access https://24days.in/umbraco-cms/2015/strongly-typed-vs-dynamic-content-access/

    And if you decide to go with strongly typed content access read this follow up article as well : https://24days.in/umbraco-cms/2016/getting-started-with-modelsbuilder/

    Dave
