Programmatically get a specific page

Posted by Community Admin on 08-Apr-2014 00:00

Hello,
how can I programmatically get a "specific" page in my website?

Suppose that I have the "Events" page and I would like to programmatically get it. I have seen various ways to achieve this (in the documentation and in blog posts) but none of them are suitable for me:

Find the page by Title
This is not possible in a multilanguage site! The title will only work for a specific language
Find the page by Guid
This is not very clean since I should hard-code the guid into my code. Moreover, where can I find a specific page guid (apart from looking into the database)?
Find the current page
Again, this is not suitable because I don't want the current page, I want a "specific" page
Other?

Thank you!

Hi Luca,

You can get a specific page by its Title and then filter for the culture

var ci = System.Globalization.CultureInfo.GetCultureInfo("en");

var pageNodes = App.WorkWith()

.Pages()

.LocatedIn(PageLocation.Frontend)

.Where(p => p.Page.Status == Telerik.Sitefinity.GenericContent.Model.ContentLifecycleStatus.Live && p.Title.Contains("Home"))

.Get()

.AsQueryable();

var filteredTranslations = PageHelper.FilterPagesForLanguage(pageNodes, ci).AsQueryable();

This way you get the pages starting with Home and then find the one with the specific language.
You can do the same but querying the pageNodes by UrlName, for instance.

Sorry but it's not an acceptable solution. Think to have a MultiLanguage site with 5 languages, a news list and a news detail. Now in news detail i need a link "All news". How can i get the url of that page knowing the title is "All news?

Hello,

If you know the title of the page you can simple query it and get the specified language url of the page.
Example:

PageManager manager = new PageManager();

var page = manager.GetPageNodes().Where(n => n.Title == "All News").SingleOrDefault();

var culture = System.Threading.Thread.CurrentThread.CurrentUICulture;

string url = string.Empty;

if (page != null)

if (page.AvailableCultures.Contains(culture))

url = page.GetUrl("", culture, true);

else

url = page.GetUrl();

return url;

Note that it returns the relative url. I hope you find this helpful.
