Hi

This is sort of related to this matter https://doc.dynamicweb.com/forum/development/development/how-to-get-value-from-paragraph-item-field

What I want to do, is to be able to link to an itembased page, that i only have the item id on. It is related to the matter above, but since the pageid is not a part of the Item. I have tried things like:

 

var siduid = item["PageId"];

But i can´t fetch the pageid because it is not pert of the item itself.

 

So my question is, is there any way of linking to a page I only know the itemid on?

Or is it possible to get the pageid when i know the itemid?

 

/Hans

Hi Hans

If you have the item type, you can do like this:

Services.Pages.GetPageForItem(string itemType,string itemId)

Can´t quite get it to work.

Get an error saying:
"Line 745: An object reference is required for the non-static field, method, or property 'IPageService.GetPageForItem(string, string)'"

 

I have an item with the system name "Greinaskrivari", and the string @writeridstring contains the id of the Item I am trying to fetch the  page or pageid for.

My code looks like this

var writerpage=Dynamicweb.Content.IPageService.GetPageForItem("Greinaskrivari", @writeridstring);

 

What am I doing wrong?

Hi Hans

You need to call it like this: Dynamicweb.Services.Pages.GetPageForItem("Greinaskrivari", @writeridstring);

Thank you very mutch for your time Nicolai. Getting closer, but when I output what i get from this - I get the following

"Dynamicweb.Content.Page"

I have also tried this, but this just gives an error

 

string   writerpagestring=writerpage["DwPageID"].ToString();

Sorry for my ignorance, but where do I go from here?

Something like this maybe?

int pageid = Dynamicweb.Services.Pages.GetPageForItem("Greinaskrivari", @writeridstring).ID;
<a href="Default.aspx?ID=@pageid">Link to page</a>
