    Model.Content IPublishedContent does not contain a definition for "Content"

    Using Umbraco And Getting Started
    Umbraco 7

    Hi, why am I not able to access "Content", am I missing a reference?

    In my view:

    @inherits Umbraco.Web.Mvc.UmbracoViewPage
@{
    Layout = "kund_unikum_master_t.cshtml";

    var currentPage = Model.Content;
}

    I get the error

    "IPublishedContent does not contain a definition for 'Content' and no extension method 'Content' accepting a first argument of type 'IpublishedContent' could be found (are you missing a suign directive or an assembly reference?)"

    Best regards /David

    Hi David,

    Quick answer:

    If you are inheriting from UmbracoViewPage, you don't need .Content to access the Model properly. This is only required if you are inheriting from UmbracoTemplatePage.

    Extended answer

    UmbracoTemplatePage requires a RenderModel to be passed to it rather than just IPublishedContent. The RenderModel has a property on it called Content which is why you need to access the actual content via Model.Content. This content property is an IPublishedContent.

    UmbracoViewPage, if you don't specify the model, expects an IPublishedContent (I believe) as it's default model. As such, you no longer need to access it via Model.Content as Model is the instance of IPublishedContent (or the type that was passed into the view).

    Hope that helps

    Nik
