How to make a global loop in a Standard.Page.OnGlobalTags subscriber

Sorry for handling this issue by re-posting, but as it is a rather old post, I am now reposting the matter:

http://developer.dynamicweb-cms.com/forum/development/how-to-make-a-global-loop-in-a-standard.page.onglobaltags-subscriber-1.aspx

The issue here is, that even though I use the suggested approach, my global:loop does not show in DwTemplateTags, nor does it render inside the content module, where the global tags are needed.

This could be a bug or it could be that the appoeach is either insufficient or entirely wrong. Please help out if you can.

My code:

public class NotificationOnGlobalTagsFooterBrands : NotificationSubscriber
    {
        public override void OnNotify(string notification, Dynamicweb.Extensibility.NotificationArgs args)
        {
            Dynamicweb.Notifications.Standard.Page.PageviewNotificationArgs a = (Dynamicweb.Notifications.Standard.Page.PageviewNotificationArgs)args;

            MrBrand BrandClass = new MrBrand();
            List<MrBrand> Brands = BrandClass.GetBrands();
            a.Template.SetTag("Global:NIQ:Test", "Global test");

            if (a.Template.LoopExists("Global:NIQ:Brandsloop"))
            {
                Dynamicweb.Templatev2.Template BrandsLoop = a.Template.GetLoop("Global:NIQ:BrandsLoop");
                foreach (MrBrand b in Brands)
                {
                    BrandsLoop.SetTag("Global:NIQ:BrandsLoop.Brand", b.Brand);
                    BrandsLoop.SetTag("Global:NIQ:BrandsLoop.Description", b.Description);
                    BrandsLoop.SetTag("Global:NIQ:BrandsLoop.Sort", b.Sort);
                    BrandsLoop.SetTag("Global:NIQ:BrandsLoop.Classification", b.Classification);
                    BrandsLoop.SetTag("Global:NIQ:BrandsLoop.ShowInFooter", b.Showinfooter);
                    BrandsLoop.SetTag("Global:NIQ:BrandsLoop.Logolink", b.Logolink);

                    BrandsLoop.CommitLoop();
                }
            }
        }
    }

[Extensibility.Subscribe(Dynamicweb.Notifications.Standard.Page.AfterOutput)] public class PageAfterOutputObserver : Dynamicweb.Extensibility.NotificationSubscriber { public override void OnNotify(string notification, Dynamicweb.Extensibility.NotificationArgs args) { if (args == null) return; Dynamicweb.Notifications.Standard.Page.AfterOutputArgs afterOutputArgs = (Dynamicweb.Notifications.Standard.Page.AfterOutputArgs)args; afterOutputArgs.template.SetTag("myTag", "some text"); } }
