    Display contents of Multiple Media Picker in macro.

    Hi Folks, I'm trying to display a list of documents added to node using the Multiple Media Picker - like a list of downloads.

    I've created a macro and associated XLST file base upon something I've found out there:

    @inherits Umbraco.Web.Macros.PartialViewMacroPage

@if(Model.Content.HasValue("downloadPublicDocuments"))
{
    var docsList = Model.Content.GetPropertyValue<string>("downloadPublicDocuments").Split(new string[] { "," }, StringSplitOptions.RemoveEmptyEntries).Select(int.Parse);
    var docsCollection = Umbraco.TypedMedia(docsList).Where(x => x != null);

    var count = 0;
    var closed = false;
    var opener = "<div class='col-sm-6'>";
    var closer = "</div>";

    foreach (var docItem in docsCollection)
    {               
        if(count == 0)
        {               
            closed = false;
            @Html.Raw(opener);
        }

        var bytes = Convert.ToInt64(docItem.GetPropertyValue("umbracoBytes"));
        var inmb = bytes / 1048576;
        var inkb = bytes / 1024;

        <div class="file">
            <h1>@docItem.Name</h1>
            <p>File Type: @docItem.GetPropertyValue("umbracoExtension").ToString().ToUpper() | 25 March 2015 | @inkb kb<p>
        </div>

        if(count == 1)
        {
            closed = true;
            @Html.Raw(closer);
            count = 0;
        }
        else
        {
            count++;
        }
    }   

    if(!closed)
    {
        closed = true;
        @Html.Raw(closer);
    }
}

    The page returns no documents even though I've attached them to the node. Is there an easier was of listing the media attached to a node? Any help will be greatly appreciated.

    Thanks in advance. Darren

    Hi Darren,

    Since you are using Umbraco 7, then you will need to use Razor. You could use a partial views or partial view macros.

    Try to see this documentation about how to get data from a multiple media picker. https://our.umbraco.org/documentation/using-umbraco/backoffice-overview/property-editors/built-in-property-editors-v7/Media-Picker

    Hope this helps,

    /Dennis

    Hi Dennis,

    With a bit of tweaking based on what you suggested and what I've already done - managed to get this Partial View Macro working. Basically, it lists media, file type, size and date - ideal for download pages if anyone is interested!

    @inherits Umbraco.Web.Macros.PartialViewMacroPage

    @if (CurrentPage.HasValue("caseStudyImages")) { var docsList = Model.Content.GetPropertyValue

        var count = 0;
    var closed = false;
    var opener = "<div class='col-sm-6 customers'>";
    var closer = "</div>";

    foreach (var docItem in docsCollection)
    {               
        if(count == 0)
        {               
            closed = false;
            @Html.Raw(opener);
        }

        var bytes = Convert.ToInt64(docItem.GetPropertyValue("umbracoBytes"));
        var inmb = bytes / 1048576;
        var inkb = bytes / 1024;

        <div class="file-customer">
            <h1>@docItem.Name</h1>
            <p>File Type: @docItem.GetPropertyValue("umbracoExtension").ToString().ToUpper() | 25 March 2015 | @inkb kb<p>
        </div>

        <div class="file-icon"><a href="@docItem.Url" target="_blank"><img src="/css/img/download.png"></a></div>

        if(count == 1)
        {
            closed = true;
            @Html.Raw(closer);
            count = 0;
        }
        else
        {
            count++;
        }
    }   

    if(!closed)
    {
        closed = true;
        @Html.Raw(closer);
    }
}

    Cheers

    Darren
