    Nested Content datatype - Name Template fallback value

    Hi Lee,

    Was wondering if there's a way that we can do fallback value in the "Name Template" section.

    I know we can pull back a value based on alias. Eg {{title}} which will pull the title through to show the user when there's value and if it's empty it will show "Item 1"

    Is there a way to have {{title}} and then a fallback value if that's empty to a particular text like "Module Promo"?

    Appreciate any help

    Thanks

    Hi JLon,

    It runs the name template as a javascript function in the getName function: https://github.com/umco/umbraco-nested-content/blob/develop/src/Our.Umbraco.NestedContent/Web/UI/App_Plugins/NestedContent/Js/nestedcontent.controllers.js#L217

    So maybe it's possible to have some js in your name template like this : {{propertyName!=''?propertyName:'Fall back text'}}

    But that it's just in theory. Haven't tried that before.
