    XSLT - Extracting property value from multiple pages

    Hi there,

    Please excuse my question if it's silly, I am a beginner to Umbraco, especially in the Macros and "XSLT" areas.

    Below is a screenshot of my content:

    Article 1, Article 2, etc. are content pages of document type "NewsArticle". The "NewsArticle" document type has a property called "newsArticleContent" of type Richtext Editor.

    On a section of my website, i inserted a macro i created that needs to display those articles, separated by the <br /> element. This is what my .XSLT code looks like at the moment:

    <xsl:variable name="newsArticleAlias" select="string('NewsArticle')"/>
        
    <xsl:template match="/">
      
      <xsl:for-each select="$currentPage/*/* [name() = $newsArticleAlias and string(umbracoNaviHide) != '1']">
        testing 123...
        <xsl:value-of select="data [@alias = 'newsArticleContent']" />
        <br />
      </xsl:for-each>

    </xsl:template>


    This is the content as it displays at the moment on the main webpage (The Cows Website). As you can see the content from the NewsArticle property isn't being displayed:

    Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    Thank you.

    Regards,
    Matei

    Hi Matei,

    Try something like this:

    <xsl:variable name="siteRoot" select="$currentPage/ancestor-or-self::*[@level = 1]" />

<xsl:template match="/">

  <xsl:for-each select="$siteRoot/NewsArticle[not(umbracoNaviHide = 1)]">
    testing 123...
    <xsl:value-of select="newsArticleContent" />
    <br />
  </xsl:for-each>

</xsl:template>

    - and maybe look for articles describing "The new XML Schema"...

    Hi Chriztian,

    Thanks for your reply. Your example was good, I just had to add the NewsSection as well in front of the NewsArticle:

    <xsl:for-eachselect="$siteRoot/NewsSection/NewsArticle[not(umbracoNaviHide = 1)]">

    Regards,

    Matei
