That s not available in the view models... And nor are global tags.

What are you trying to achieve? Maybe there is another way,

Just trying to change header/footer of a website based on the steps during checkout, without using mulitple pages with the cart module.

Hi Heine

Yes - not a simple one because the viewmodel is executed in a little different order than razor template. So at the time the cartviewmodel is generated the step index is not yet calculated.

So - just very recently, in 9.3.3, the Rendering.Template class got a new method called GetRawValue. That might be your rescue.

So after you have called PageViewmodel.Placeholder(*) where the cart is rendered (you could have several calls to that), you can maybe access the value using this GetRawValue method:

Dynamicweb.Core.Converter.ToInt32(Dynamicweb.Frontend.PageView.Current.Template.GetRawValue("Ecom:Checkout.CurrentStep.Index"))
Dynamicweb.Core.Converter.ToString(Dynamicweb.Frontend.PageView.Current.Template.GetRawValue("Ecom:Checkout.CurrentStep.Name"))
Dynamicweb.Core.Converter.ToBoolean(Dynamicweb.Frontend.PageView.Current.Template.GetRawValue("Ecom:Checkout.CurrentStep.IsCheckout"))
