Hej guys,

I have a 3 level structure of Item pages in my site navigation

Every Level page is it's own Item type. 1) News 2) Group 3) Article

News
- News_Group1
  - Article1
  - Article2
  - Article3
- News_Group2
  - Article1
  - Article2

When I am at News page, I want to have a list of all News_Groups with help of Item publisher

I am trying to achieve something like this:

@{
        if(itemsAny){
            foreach (LoopItem i in GetLoop("ItemPublisher:Items.List"))
            {
                var Title = i.GetValue("ItemPublisher:Item.Title");
                
                <h3>@Title</h3>
                <div>
                    @foreach (LoopItem i2 in i.GetLoop("ItemPublisher:Items.List"))
                    {
                        <span> <<<--- I need my Article.Title here  --->>> </span>
                    }                                        
                </div>        
        
                <div>@i.TemplateTags()</div>
            }
        }
    }

My question is, while I am listing all groups, can I somehow access all articles (children of Group)?

In module settings I am including all clind items http://screencast.com/t/aM0m0jWhn32

Hi Dmitrij

Sub items of other types than the one you are publishing is not included in the item publisher.

When you have an item that is a page, you have its page id.

Then you can do something like this:

var Dynamicweb.Frontend.Page p = Dynamicweb.Frontend.Page.Findpage(ID);

if (Convert.ToBoolean(p.get_Value("PageHasChildren")) == true) {
	tmpPageChilds = p.get_Value("pagechilds");
	if ((tmpPageChilds != null)) {
		if (tmpPageChilds.GetType.ToString != "System.String") {
			PageChilds = (ArrayList)tmpPageChilds;
			foreach (int intChildPageID in PageChilds) {
				Dynamicweb.Frontend.Page.Findpage(intChildPageID).Item.Something			}
		}
	}
}

You should be able to do this using an item publisher directly in your template, i.e. by using @RenderItemList(…) inside your loop:

foreach (…) {
  …
  <h3>@Title</h3>
  @RenderItemList(new {
    ItemType = "Article",
    …
  })
}

See http://templates.dynamicweb.com/TemplateTags/Dynamicweb-template-tags/Module-tags/Item-publisher/Item-Render.aspx for details on the parameters you can use in RenderItemList and see http://developer.dynamicweb.com/releases/dynamicweb-8-4-1.aspx#item14614 for examples on use.

Best regards,
Mikkel

Trying to do the same here.
I have used the code in the examples in the above links. Here is the code that is wrote:

The template file:

    <div class="col-md-3">
      @RenderItemList(new {ItemType = "Cases",ListSourceType = "Page",ListSourceArea = 18,ItemFieldsList = "*",ListTemplate = "ItemPublisher/List/List.cshtml",ListPageSize = 100,ListOrderBy = "StartTime"})
    </div>

List.cshtml:

<div class="cases items">
  @foreach(LoopItem i in GetLoop("ItemPublisher:Items.List")){
    <p>@i.GetString("ItemPublisher:Item.Title")</p>
  }
</div>
