Lee,

I followed your gist example for using ditto with archetype however I am having some issues. My situation is this:

My poco:

    public class GlobalContent
{
    public RelatedLinks PrimaryHeaderLinks { get; set; }
    public RelatedLinks GlobalSecondaryHeaderLinks { get; set; }        
    public IEnumerable<MultiBlockContent> GlobalFooterColumns { get; set; }
}

The first 2 properties all map nicely. The second one is MultiblockContent which looks like

[TypeConverter(typeof(MultiBlockContentTypeConvertor))]
public class MultiBlockContent 
{
    public string BlockLabel { get; set; }

    public RelatedLinks BlockContent { get; set; }
}

And the type convertor looks like:

    public class MultiBlockContentTypeConvertor : TypeConverter
{
    public override bool CanConvertFrom(ITypeDescriptorContext context, Type sourceType)
    {
        if (sourceType == typeof(ArchetypeModel))
            return true;

        return base.CanConvertFrom(context, sourceType);
    }

    public override object ConvertFrom(ITypeDescriptorContext context, CultureInfo culture, object value)
    {
        if (value is ArchetypeModel)
            return ConvertFromArchetype((ArchetypeModel)value);

        return base.ConvertFrom(context, culture, value);
    }

    private MultiBlockContent ConvertFromArchetype(ArchetypeModel value)
    {

        var fieldset = value.FirstOrDefault();
        if (fieldset == null)
            return null;

        return new MultiBlockContent()
        {
            BlockLabel = fieldset.GetValue<string>("blockLabel"),
            BlockContent = fieldset.GetValue<RelatedLinks>("blockContent")
        };
    }
}

I know what the issue is which is that the archtype can have multi values. So do I handle this, I guess I need to update code in MultiBlockContentTypeConvertor so it then sends back IEnumerable

Regards
