Values not saving when using document type inheritance
Hi Lee,
Thanks for the package. Trying it out for the first time, but unfortunately I'm running into a few issues where my values aren't saving if they're defined on an inherited document type.
An example of my document type structure is below:
Nested Content Base
- Tab Base
-- Content Tab
-- Gallery Tab
-- etc
When I save a page containing a nested content field of Content Tabs, Gallery Tabs, etc I'm finding that the values in the properties defined on the Content Tab, Gallery Tab doctypes are saved, but the values in the properties defined on Tab Base aren't.
Does nested content support inherited properties, or have I stumbled into a bug?
Sorry for the bump but I was wondering if the above issue/bug is already resolved in the latest version? In the nuGet gallery I saw that the latest package (0.2.0) is from July 2015 and the issue was reported in November 2015 so i guess not?
It's now 16 May 2016 and this bug still exists in NC. I'm building a site using Umbraco 7.4.3 and NC 0.2.0 and I'm having to rip out my composition document types as none of those properties will save in NC.
Any realistic idea of a timeframe when NC will support document type compositions?
Yes, the compositions bug in v0.2.0 has been fixed, but not yet "officially" released. (We've been busy working in the background to get NC into the Umbraco core - v7.6).
As mentioned in my reply to the original post, if you need the fix right now, then the Umbraco and NuGet package for the latest 0.3.0 dev build are available to download from the AppVeyor page:
(this also contains nightlies from our other Umbraco packages)
As a friendly reminder to those who have come across as annoyed, frustrated or plain old impatient - referencing dates, etc... these are open-source packages, in which I give freely to the community, and support with my free time, all for free (no one is paying me for this). Please keep that in mind when demanding updates.

Hi James,
It's a known issue/bug. Good news is that it's fixed, not so good news (right now) is that we haven't released it yet.
The OK-ish news is that if you need it "now", then you can grab a build of it from here:
https://ci.appveyor.com/project/leekelleher/umbraco-nested-content/build/artifacts
There are downloads for the Umbraco and NuGet packages.
I hope this helps?
Cheers,
- Lee
Hi Lee,
Thanks for confirming. I checked out the source over lunch and saw the fix - I should have checked earlier!
I'll just re-jig my document types for now (unless you're planning a release in the next few days).
Cheers!
James
No worries. I doubt we'll get a new release out this week, but defo in the next couple of weeks. (It's whenever I get a spare few hours to do it).

Same here.. Composition types not saving. Guessing this is still an issue?
Good morning all you beautiful people! :-)

Thanks Lee!
I'm not really sure how I missed that. Fantastic!
No frustration here, I had a work band-aid in place already! Just missed your post in my late-night skimming.
I have .3 alpha running and the problem is solved. Ripping off my band-aid :) Thank you sir , h5yr
To save anyone else some time, here's the steps to fix this, as Lee stated - https://ci.appveyor.com/project/leekelleher/umbraco-nested-content/build/artifacts
Thanks again Lee man, this package is superior in every other way for content management. Clients love it.
