Adding items to an itemRelationList through API

Hi,

I am greating a piece of code to replace some itemlists of one type with a new type. The itemlists gets created allright, but i struggle to fill anything in them.

Heres my code:

Paragraph paraNew = new Paragraph(paraOld.PageID);

paraNew.Header = paraOld.Header + " copy: " + DateTime.Now.ToString("HH:mm");

paraNew.Sort = paraOld.Sort;

paraNew.ItemType = itemListTypeNew;

paraService.SaveParagraph(paraNew);

paraNew.Item.Save();

//"Copy" of paragraph ok - New is created next to old one, and through backend items can be added

Item itemListitemNew = Dynamicweb.Content.Items.ItemManager.Storage.GetById(itemListTypeNew, paraNew.ItemId);

ItemList list = new ItemList(itemTypeNew);

list.Save();

itemListitemNew[itemListTypeListFieldNew] = list.ID;

itemListitemNew.Save();

//List should be ready to use now:

var itemListNew = ItemList.GetItemListById(Convert.ToInt32(itemListitemNew[itemListTypeListFieldNew]));

var newentry = new Item(itemTypeNew);

newentry.Add(new KeyValuePair<string, object>("Title", (object)"TestTitle"));

newentry.Add(new KeyValuePair<string, object>("Link", (object)"/TESTLINK"));

newentry.Save();

//New Item of correct type created

itemListNew.Relations.Append(newentry);

//Printing what it looks like

<p>@JsonConvert.SerializeObject(itemListNew)</p>

But the relations are always empty:

{"ItemType":"CTAItem","SortBy":null,"SortOrder":null,"Relations":[],"Connection":null,"Transaction":null,"ID":1305,"IsNew":false}

Am i going about it the wrong way?

Best regards,

Steen
