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 😊
