Hi forum,

In a template for my slideshow document type I want to render all the items added to a Nested content property:

• In the slideshow document type I have a property called slides
• slides property is a Umbraco.NestedContent datatype with one document type (nested_slides) in its configuration
• nested_slides document type has two properties: slide (content picker data type) and foo (textstring - used just for testing/debugging)

In my template I have this code:

@inherits Umbraco.Web.Mvc.UmbracoViewPage
@using ContentModels = Umbraco.Web.PublishedModels;

@{
    Layout = null;
}
@{
    var items = Model.Value<IEnumerable<IPublishedElement>>("slides");
    foreach(var item in items)
    {
        var slide = item.Value<IPublishedElement>("slide");
        var foo = item.Value<string>("foo");

        <p>slide: @slide.Id, foo: @foo</p>
    }
}

The code above is for proof of concept, but it gives an error in line 14:

Server Error in '/' Application.
Compilation Error

Source Error:


Line 12:        var foo = item.Value<string>("foo");
Line 13:        
Line 14:         <p>slide: @slide.Id, foo: @foo</p>
Line 15:     }
Line 16: }

I want to get the id of the linked node so I can call Umbraco.Content to get the content of that linked node.

What am I doing wrong?
