    Filling out a checkboxlist datatype with nodenames.



    What i want to acheive
    We have a certain ammount of blurb nodes. We wanna be able to on a Certain page, for example the product main page, chose wich ones of these blurbs we wanna show. Right now im using Tag datatype to fill in the exact name of these blurbs. But this datatype feels very unreliable. Instead i wanna list all these blurb nodes in a checkboxlist.

    Question
    Is it in anyway (that aint to time hard) possible to get all the blurb nodes and list these in a checkboxlist for the editor to check.

    This is fairly simple using the Ultimate Picker Datatype and setting it to render as a checkbox list.  This will give you back a comma delimited list of Node ids that you can then iterate through with either an XSLT Macro of a usercontrol using the API.
