Posted by Community Admin on 25-Nov-2015 00:00

Hello,

I create a RelatedMediaField to custum my "Edit Page" : (Administration->Advanced->ContentView->Controls->FrontEndPages->FrontEndPagesCreate)

Problem : How can I get this image url ?

node.GetValue<Telerik.Sitefinity.Libraries.Model.Image>("MyMediaField").Url;

=> Error : System.Exception: Wrong custom field 'MyMediaField' for type 'Telerik.Sitefinity.Pages.Model.PageNode'

Maybe DataFieldName attribute bad done ?

Please help.

Thanks !!

Hello,

There are two ways to get related items with Sitefinity API, using related data API and using ContentLinksManager.

Related data API

using Telerik.Sitefinity.RelatedData;

var pageManager = PageManager.GetManager();

var page = pageManager.GetPageNodes().Where(t => t.Title == "Test").FirstOrDefault();

var relatedImage = page.GetRelatedItems<Telerik.Sitefinity.Libraries.Model.Image>("Image");

ContentLinksManager

var pageManager = PageManager.GetManager();

var page = pageManager.GetPageNodes().Where(t => t.Title == "Test").FirstOrDefault();

var contentLinksManager = ContentLinksManager.GetManager();

var linksToRelatedItems = contentLinksManager.GetContentLinks()

.Where(cl => cl.ParentItemId == page.Id &&

cl.ParentItemType == page.GetType().FullName &&

cl.ComponentPropertyName == "Image");

//in the property ChildItemAdditionalInfo the url of the image resides

var relatedItemUrl = linksToRelatedItems.Select(s => s.ChildItemAdditionalInfo);

Hello Medy,

Both methods works fine (screenshot of the test).

You can try to recreate the related media field - Images, using the UI:
- Pages menu > Custom Fields link on the right side
