Hi

Trying to use the Content Picker, to show a sub page on the front page, but it just comes up with at number (1277). Is there any way to solve this?

Found this looking in the Yahoo forum:

Code:

<xsl:if test="./data[@alias='menu_Products']!=''">
<xsl:value-of select="umbraco.library:NiceUrl(./data
[@alias='menu_Products'])" />
</xsl:if>

">http://
http://tech.groups.yahoo.com/group/umbraco/message/3034

But I can't get it to work.

The page that I am trying to show has a header and a list of sub pages.
I some how managed to show the header, using this code - but the list of sub pages doesn’t show

Code:

<xsl:value-of select="umbraco.library:GetXmlNodeById($currentPage/data [@alias = 'Dates'])/data "/>

Am I really the only one, that can’t get the Content Picker to show anything other then a number?

It isn't suppose to return anyhting but a number - which is a node-id - which you can use in your xslt with umbraco.library:getXmlNode(ID) to get all the content in the node.

OK, thanks for that info.

I now get some information from the Content Picker, but I am still missing the subpages.

Let me set up the scenario..

Frontpage
- Page1
- Page2
- Page3 (hide from navi)
o Page3.1
o Page3.2
o Page3.3

Page 3 has the following code, that’s lists the subpages.

Code:

<xsl:for-each select="$currentPage/ancestor-or-self::node [@level=$level]/node [string(data [@alias='umbracoNaviHide']) != '1']">
» <xsl:value-of select="@nodeName"/>

And that works fine.

Now I would like to get this information on the Frontpage
I set up a content picker and select Page3 – this shows a number..

I then use this xslt

Code:

<xsl:value-of select="umbraco.library:GetXmlNodeById($currentPage/data [@alias = 'Dates'])/data "/>

This only returns the text from the Richtext editor and not the list of subpages from Page3

How can I get the subpages to be listed on the Frontpage?
