    Nested Content Image Name as Template Label

    Hi there,

    I'm using nested content to create a component with an image and would like to know if it's possible to display the image name as the template label for that Doc Type.

    If I use {{image}} I get the Umbraco media reference url. ie. umb://media/197d7b7f087c44d8aac778f6e1900c0b but is there an easy way to supply the image name?

    Thanks, Luke

    Hi Luke

    I know if it's a content picker you can use

    {{pickerAlias | ncNodeName}}

    to show the name of the picked item

    ... and in the original Nested Content there was a PR to add ncMediaName

    https://github.com/umco/umbraco-nested-content/pull/129

    {{pickerAlias | ncMediaName}}

    but I don't think this ever got added, so suspect it's not an option in the version of Nested Content that is in the Umbraco core :-(

    regards

    Marc

    Recently a PR has been merged in with some extra capabilities for the name template of nested content. This is part of 7.12

    https://github.com/umbraco/Umbraco-CMS/pull/2457

    These changes have been documented : https://our.umbraco.com/documentation/Getting-Started/Backoffice/Property-Editors/Built-in-Property-Editors/Nested-Content

    Hello,

    Does anyone know if this works in V8? I've tried every alias and none of them display the image name, picked with the media picker.

    I checked the v8 documentation wich says I could be able to get the image name using the picker alias, but it only gives me:

    umb://media/197d7b7f087c44d8aac778f6e1900c0b

    I'm using the image picker in a nested content with no text string to draw a title from. So I have to use either item1, item2 etc. or the umb://media

    I'm using v8.5 but also had this issue with 8.4 as well.

    Many thanks! Daniel

    Hi Daniel. Try this, it works for me currently in 8.4.

    {{ tileImage | ncNodeName }}

    Where ‘tileImage’ is the alias of your image property

    Luke!

    You're the one! I can't believe I was reading it wrong! I thought that | pipe was an an optional OR statement OMG so I only used one or the other! Wow!

    ...feeling a bit stupid at the moment!

    Thank you so much!

    {{ portfolioImage | ncNodeName }}

    Best, Daniel

    Hi Daniel,

    No worries man. I had the same head scratching madness. There’s some really powerful values that can be used in these fields but it’s hard to find well documented info.

    Glad I could help 😊
