Which version of Umbraco are you running?

The xml scheema has changed in 4.5.2 so you may need to use somthing like

<xsl:for-each select="currentPage/self::BlogPost">

If you want to iterate over blog post nodes for example.

Alternatively this might also work;

<xsl:for-each select="$currentPage//node [@alias = 'BlogPost']">

Have you got a link to that video handy? It might be referencing an older version of Umbraco?

Many Thanks,

Tom

Hi Dominik.

As Tom says the XML schema has changed in the newer versions of Umbraco. If you want to run through nodes with some diferent document types, you have to do like this:

<xsl:for-each select="$currentPage/*[@isDoc]">

And if you want to just run through nodes with a document type of "BlogPost", you must do like this:

<xsl:for-each select="$currentPage/BlogPost">

Hi Dominik and others.

I just took a look at this post. And really thought I knew the answer as Kim has written in his post. There is something I wonder. Because the way I have asked for a specific document type in Umbraco.

Are as follows so I thought it would be

<xsl:for-each select="$currentPage/child::* [@isDoc and self::BlogPost]">

Maybe it's me who is wrong.

Hi Dennis!

Yeah, your code would work just as well as the other code. But there's no reason to write so much. The following two lines of code would run through the same nodes:

<xsl:for-each select="$currentPage/child::* [@isDoc and self::BlogPost]">

<xsl:for-each select="$currentPage/BlogPost">

It's up to you how you want to write your code, but it's always nice to write less code if possible, right ;)

Hi Kim

Yeah you are right.

It's nice to write less code if possible ;)

But I did not know that it was possible to just write

<xsl:for-each select="$currentPage/BlogPost">

So thanks Kim ! :)

No problem Dennis.

You can do this because of the way the new schema is structured. I looks something like this:

<root id="-1">
  <HomePage id="1050" ... >
     <title>My HomePage title</title>
     <BlogPost id="XXXX" ... >
        <title>My first blogpost</title>
     <BlogPost>
     <BlogPost id="XXXX" ... >
        <title>My second blogpost</title>
     <BlogPost>
     etc.
     etc. 
  </HomePage>
</root>
