Hi Jonathan,

Usually developers don't need to do pages in such way.

IPublishedContent - interface for working with xml cached content.

Why did you decide to use sql tables? And show us your code if it's possible.

Thanks,

Alex

My apologies, Its not really data direct from the SQL tables. I basically would like to create a way to neatly show the actual pages of two versions of the same page.

I know the Role back feature has a way to do a Compare but for the average user this method is quite unfriendly. I would like to convert the JSON that Content has when querying a version into a HTML page so the user can visually see the page as opposed to the source.

I hope that makes sense,

Jon

Hi,

Try the GetByVersion() method of ContentService - as detailed below:

https://our.umbraco.org/documentation/reference/management/services/contentservice

This should allow you to get one or more versions of the same content item, then compare properties.

But does this give you the HTML of the page?

Hi Jonathan, you can render page and get html.

var htmlOfPage = Umbraco.RenderTemplate(pageId);

Thanks,

Alex

ContentService just gives you access to the versioned content - are you using MVC to render the content? If so, the usual MVC rendering methods (for views and partial views) can render whatever you pass to it.

is working on a reply...
