    Get a member's custom property

    How do I get the value of a custom property of type true/false?

    I have manually set it to true.

    I am using MVC Raxor and I get the member with:

    var vMember = Members.GetCurrentMember();

    In debug, I can see the custom property (by examining vMember) in Properties > Umbraco.Core.Models.IPublishedProperty[0].

    According to Intellisense, "HasValue" and "GetPropertyValue" are not available and "GetProperty("customProperty").Value gives an error.

    Your help would be much appreciated.

    Thanking you in anticipation.

    Roger

    Hi Roger,

    It works fine:

    var vMember = Members.GetCurrentMember();

var testValue = vMember.GetPropertyValue("testValue");

    What version of Umbraco are you using?

    Thanks,

    Alex

    Thanks Alex, but no joy.

    var testValue = vMember.GetPropertyValue("myCustomProperty");

    has the error: 'Umbraco.Core.Models.IPublishedContent' does not contain a definition for 'GetPropertyValue' and no extension method 'GetPropertyValue' accepting a first argument of type 'Umbraco.Core.Models.IPublishedContent' could be found (are you missing a using directive or an assembly reference?)

    I'm using 7.2.8.

    Any thoughts?

    Roger

    Be sure you are using the namespace Umbraco.Web to get the GetPropertyValue extension methods.

    ie. in a view add @using Umbraco.Web or in a class using Umbraco.Web;
