Umbraco Razor Macro Parameter access with space - razor

I am new to Umbraco. I am currently using Umbraco 7.0. I have created a Razor
macro with a parameter that will access property from home template page. In My Macro
due to space only first word of string displays and rest of the string is not
displayed. property
name is sliderHeading with value : My First Slide. Macro inserted in the template is
as follows :-
#Umbraco.RenderMacro("HomePageSlider", new {mediaId="1084",
sliderHeading=#Umbraco.Field("sliderHeading")})
// where sliderHeading is macro parameter.
Macro definition :-
#inherits umbraco.MacroEngines.DynamicNodeContext
#if (Parameter.mediaId != null)
{
var mediaFolder = Library.MediaById(Parameter.mediaId);
if (mediaFolder.Children.Any())
{
foreach (var mediaItem in mediaFolder.Children)
{
<div class="cycle-slide" style="background-
image:url(#mediaItem.umbracoFile)" data-cycle-title=#Parameter.sliderHeading
data-cycle-desc="Remember, you are not limited to image elements. You can display
other HTML too." data-cycle-link="#"></div>
}
}
}
So, in macro, parameter value is accessed by :- data-cycle-
title=#Parameter.sliderHeading.
Now my issue is that
if property value is :- "My First Slide". Then it will give wrong output "My" on page.
if property value is :- "My First Slide" with html space (&nbbsp;) in between Then it
will give right output "My First Slide" on page.
How should I access parameter in Macro, so that it will give right output.

Seems a bit simple but won't wrapping #Html.Raw or even #Raw round your code force the parameter to output with spaces?
Like:
data-cycle-title=#Raw(Parameter.sliderHeading)

How Do I Dynamically Add onclick on a Razor page?

I am iterating through a LARGE list of objects all of which will open the same modal window that will be loaded with dynamic information. To make this work, I create a counter called MenuCounter that I know increments just fine.
That said, I am attempting to wrap a hyperlink around the icons I need to use and the injection of the method keeps pointing to the last value of the MenuCounter.
I first tried this:
...
When I ran into the issue, I tried reducing the code to the following but then the page somehow activates the hyperlink and the modal window appears and will not go away.
...
Can somebody please help me out?
Thank you!
You should apply a lambda expression to the Blazor #onclick directive instead of using the onclick Html attribute, in which case it should call a JS function, which you did not mean.
Note that I've introduced a new directive to prevent the default action of the anchor element: #onclick:preventDefault
Test this code:
#page "/"
<a href="#" #onclick:preventDefault #onclick="#(() => SetupChangeName(MenuCounter))" >Click me...</a>
<div>Counter is #output</div>
#code
{
private int MenuCounter = 10;
private int output;
private void SetupChangeName (int counter)
{
output = counter;
}
}
Note: If you use a for loop to render a list of anchor elements, you must define a variable local to the loop, and provide it as the input to your lambda expression, something like this:
#for(int MenuCounter = 0; MenuCounter < 10; MenuCounter++)
{
int local= MenuCounter;
<a href="#" #onclick:preventDefault #onclick="#(() =>
SetupChangeName(local))" >Click me...</a>
}
otherwise, all the lambda expressions will have the the same value for MenuCounter, which is the value incremented for the last iteration. See For loop not returning expected value - C# - Blazor explaining the issue.
I'm not a fan of onclick attributes, but if you're set on this method, I believe you just need to santize the C# and JS in the same line like this:
...
Adding the quotes will ensure at least an empty string is present for JS, and then you can process it.
Alternative method
Since mixing languages like that is quite frustrating, I find it easier to use data tags, for example
...
And then in your JS file:
var links = document.querySelectorAll('[data-menu-counter]');
links.forEach(x => x.addEventListener('click', /* your function code here */);

How can I use Render sub-template in a C# template in a Content module that uses lists within lists?

2SXC 10.25.2 / DNN 9.3.2
I have a 2sxc module that uses a C# template with "list" enabled. I have a content type called "pathway" and inside that I have 2 entity picker fields for "first step sessions" and then "next step sessions". These entity pickers use a "session" content type. Inside each of those "session" content types I also have an entity picker for "speaker(s)". All in all, it's a setup that I have lists within lists within lists.
When I create the loops for each of the sublists, I can easily do that within the 1 C# template but it becomes repetitive, long, and unruly because there's so much c# code where I'm looping the same session template for different entity picker sections. So, I tried using the "Render sub-template" code to simplify the template - I created new sub templates and inserted them in - it seemed to work at first, however, the template started outputting all "session" items into each item in the list.
I suspect that the subtemplate somehow loses the context of the item that it's in so it's outputting everything. Is there something special I need to know about using subtemplates with for each loops? Do I have to include params and, if so, how do I do that?
EDIT to include code sample:
Here is a small, simplified version of the code I'm working with:
#foreach(var Content in AsList(Data)) {
<h2>#Content.Title</h2>
<h3>Lead Sessions</h3>
<div class="lead-sessions text-green">
#foreach(var item in AsList(Content.LeadSessions as object)){
<h4>#item.LeadSessionTitle</h4>
<p>#item.LeadSessionText</p>
}
</div>
<h3>Next Sessions</h3>
<div class="next-sessions text-green">
#foreach(var nextitem in AsList(Content.NextSessions as object)){
<h4>#nextitem.LeadSessionTitle</h4>
<p>#nextitem.LeadSessionText</p>
}
</div>
}
I want to make a subtemplate so I don't have to repeat the same code for the sessions loop. How could I simplify this template to use a subtemplate for looping the sessions within the lead-sessions and next-sessions?
So based on the modified question, it's a bit like this
#foreach(var Content in AsList(Data)) {
<h2>#Content.Title</h2>
<h3>Lead Sessions</h3>
#RenderPage("_inner.cshtml", new { Items = Content.LeadSessions })
<h3>Next Sessions</h3>
#RenderPage("_inner.cshtml", new { Items = Content.NextSessions })
}
Second file _inner.cshtml
#{
var items = AsList(PageData["Items"]);
}
<div class="next-sessions text-green">
#foreach(var nextitem in items){
<h4>#nextitem.LeadSessionTitle</h4>
<p>#nextitem.LeadSessionText</p>
}
</div>
Yep, you can just use RenderPage without params, or pass in params like in the blog app:
#RenderPage("shared/_Category Filter.cshtml", new { MobileView = true, FilteredCategory = filteredCategory })
See https://github.com/2sic/app-blog/blob/master/_List.cshtml#L25
Then the template can retrieve the values like
#{
var filteredCategory = PageData["FilteredCategory"];
}
See https://github.com/2sic/app-blog/blob/master/shared/_Category%20Filter.cshtml#L6
You can pass around any amount of values/objects like this.
You can also create helpers - and then call those helpers. Like this
https://github.com/2sic/app-news/blob/master/shared/_Helpers.cshtml#L24-L33

Adding html elements to page with MVC Razor pages

On the html for my page I have a <script id="pagedata"></script> element which I would like to add an element to only if a certain partial is rendered. In my layout.cshtml I have the following:
#if (Brand != null)
{
#Html.Partial("_UseApp");
}
And in my _UseApp.cshtml:
#{
var iosAppUrl = // retrieve iosLink from our CRM database
var androidUrl = // retrieve android link from our CRM database
// Here I want to add the above variables to the <script id=pagedata> in the html page. Something
like this:
PageData.AddPageData("appstore", iosAppUrl);
PageData.AddPageData("playstore", androidUrl);
I cannot work out how to do this - I set breakpoints in the UseApp.cshtml file and the file is being called, but I don't know how to add these script elements. I don't want to just add them into the layout file because I want to keep the app logic separate. Can anyone help? Thanks
My approach to this would be to use jQuery, as reading HTML elements in C# is rather difficult.
In the script below, it checks if the HTML exists, and if it does, we will assign an attribute to it. The second argument in attr() will be your link, note that you can use C# to get the value from your Db, by using the model or ViewBag.
#section Scripts{
<script>
$(document).ready(function () { // on ready
if ($("#replaceWithYourId").length) { // check if ID exists
$("#pagedata").attr("data-playstore", "link") // use jQuery attr method.
}
});
</script>
}

Can't return data from Content Picker in Umbraco 7.6.4

I am currently trying to output data from the new Multinode Treepicker in Umbraco 7.6.4 here is my current setup and code:
Doctype
Content Node with 'Page' Doctype
Code to output the names of the selected nodes:
#{
IPublishedContent typedContentPicker = Model.Content.GetPropertyValue<IPublishedContent>("sections");
if (typedContentPicker != null)
{
<p>#typedContentPicker.Name</p>
}
}
This I took from the official Umbraco Documentation and adapted it to my project. This code is in a template with the 'page' doctype.
Currently the above code does not output anything to my page, I am expecting to see a list of nodes displayed on the page, can anyone see what the issue is or where I am going wrong?
Dumb moment, I was looking at the documentation for a content picker and not a multi-node tree picker!
Correct code is:
#{
var typedMultiNodeTreePicker = Model.Content.GetPropertyValue<IEnumerable<IPublishedContent>>("sections");
foreach (var item in typedMultiNodeTreePicker)
{
<p>#item.Name</p>
}
}

generating page title with razor script - umbraco

So I am trying to create a script whereby depending on the document type of the page a certain pre-defined title tag format will appear, if there is nothing already written in an overwriting custom title input. I have inserted the macro within the title tag on my master template but keep on getting an Error loading Razor Script message .
Html
<title>
<umbraco:Macro Alias="NewPageTitle" runat="server"></umbraco:Macro>
</title>
Script -
#inherits umbraco.MacroEngines.DynamicNodeContext
#using umbraco.MacroEngines
#{
if(String.IsNullOrEmpty(#Model.tabName.ToString()) == false )
{
#Model.tabName
}
else if(#Model.DescendantsOrSelf("Country"))
{
<text>
Holidays in #Model.Name
</text>
}
else
{
#Model.Name;
}
}
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Try this code out. The problem with your original code is that you were using "#Model.DescendantsOrSelf("Country")" as a boolean, and it is a list. I also removed your comparison for if(String.IsNullOrEmpty(#Model.tabName.ToString())).
Also, if you add ?umbDebugShowTrace=true to the end of your URL, you can get some valuable debugging information. There is a Chrome Extension called "Umbraco Debug" that I use to quickly access that query string and information. You may find it useful.
#inherits umbraco.MacroEngines.DynamicNodeContext
#using umbraco.MacroEngines
#{
if(String.IsNullOrEmpty(#Model.tabName.ToString()))
{
#Model.tabName
}
else if(#Model.DescendantsOrSelf("Country").Count() > 0)
{
<text>
Holidays in #Model.Name
</text>
}
else
{
#Model.Name;
}
}
its very simple just add following code into your title tag
#Umbraco.Field("pageName")
will display pageName,you may also add custom properties from document type.
e.g. you have added new property like "metaKeywords" with value "html,javascript,xml",fetch that values as following way...
#Umbraco.Field("metaKeywords")
even you don't need to add custom properties in your model
