Adding contents to multitype data results in server error
Hi Ben
I am using Umbraco v
4.7.0 (Assembly version: 1.0.4090.21631), on windows 7. I installed MultiType DataType v2.0, so i could create a template data type with a couple of textstrings, media selector, content selector and simple editors. So far it looked to solve my problem.
In the content section, when I click on "add", I am correctly shown the option to add appropriate data in the template data type created. But when I finally try and "Add" it, it blows up with the error mentioned below.
I would love to use this data type, please can you let me know what is causing this problem so I could fix it.
Thanks

Thanks for using my datatype, I've not had any time at all to do any development on this for ages.
Anyway your error seems to suggest that in the developer section go to your MultiType data type under Data Types and check all the alias' of each property for spaces. The Alias value must not have any spaces in it. I should really be trimming or converting spaces when the xml is saved, this will have to go on my massive list of to-dos.
