Hi all, I'm trying to call the media item by passing a macro variable to the GetMedia library.
I'm pretty close, but can't figure out how to pass the xsl variable to the select statement.
Here's what I have:
This is throwing an error "Value was either too large or too small for an Int32". I think it's because the $VideoURL isn't evaluating to the parameter.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
FYI, I solved this.
It turned out not to be a true error, but an issue with the umbraco parser.
I clicked the Skip testing (ignore errors) option at the top of the xslt and this works fine now.
additionally, I added, a conversion for the macro parameter to a number in the variable definition.
Try checking the alternative 'Skip testing', and see if it works on the front end. If you pass $VideoURL as a macro parameter it is probably just not populated when the xslt is evaluated at save.
You can also change the xslt to something like this:
XSLT call library and pass xsl variable

The error appears when saving I suppose?

You found the answer while I was typing my response! Great!
If you put xsl:if around the GetMedia you will not have to remember to check Skip testing every time you modify the xslt.
Thanks for the response! I'll try the if test
