Get Merchello Product List View GUID (not actual products)
I'm building up a sub menu of product categories as defined by "Product Collection" nodes. Ie, under the store I have nested product collection pages that have the Merchello Product List View datatype on them to pick collections.
Is there a way in code to retrieve the collection GUID on the current node instead of the actual products in the collection?
Eg prodCollectionPage.Products returns IEnumerable<IProductContent> but I want the associated collection guid.
Worst case, I'll add a save event and save off the Guid into another field that I can access.

Hey Trevor,
Read through this and see if you can get it. Basically you want to override the default property value converter ...

Beautiful! Extending PublishedContent with GetDataValueAsGuid was exactly what I was after. Works really well.
Thanks Rusty.
