Hi Dynamicweb,

 

After upgrade from Dynamicweb 8 to 9 a check like this: <!--@If Defined(Item.Area.LeafletPage)--> in the product template is not working, but it still outputs a value just by using this: <!--@Item.Area.LeafletPage-->

 

Best regards, Anders

That is why you cannot.

Item.Area.LeafletPage is a layout tag and is therefore not available in the context of a productlist template. You get the tag rendered because of a 'bug' - but because of other changes to the template system from 8 to 9 the conditional is handled in the product template and therefore not present when the Item.Area.LeafletPage tag is evaluated.

So you have to find an other way - i.e. using Razor.

Sorry about the inconvenience, Nicolai

Hi Nicolai,

 

Can I then make a global tag by using an observer to provide me this tag and in the templates in the same way?

 

Best regards, Anders

I believe you can - no promises though. Try with a regular global tag first...

Workaround with Globaltags was working! :-)
