Hi North

Could you provide us with the xslt that you had working with the old XML schema in v4.0. Then we can rewrite that code.

And another small question - Are you running v4.5 or v4.5.1/4.5.2? I ask because there's a small change in the XML in v4.5 and v4.5.X :)

Hello NorthK,

I'm also relatively new to umbraco environment, but therefore I would like to try to help you,

My guess would be that you could print all the children out from under the document type slideshow so.

<xsl:for-each select="./child::*[@isDoc and self::slideshow]">
<li>
<xsl:if test="$currentPage/your Media picker alias !=''">   
    <xsl:variable name="media" select="umbraco.library:GetMedia($currentPage/your Media picker alias , 0)" />
    <xsl:variable name="alt" select="umbraco.library:GetMedia($currentPage/your Media picker alias , 0)/@nodeName" />
        <img src="{$media/umbracoFile}" alt="{$alt}"/>
</xsl:if>
</li>
</xsl:for-each>

But as I said, I am fairly new, so if I am wrong, I hope you can bear with me.

The way I used to debug my scripts by typing my variables out to see if they get the right value, or use the visualization button in Umbraco, to see if I get hold of the right data when I think I've written the right script

Hope it can help you.

Hi NorthK,

This is my take, using the match templates approach (change Document Type names if necessary):

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?>
<xsl:stylesheet
    version="1.0"
    xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform"
    xmlns:umbraco.library="urn:umbraco.library"
    exclude-result-prefixes="umbraco.library"
>

    <xsl:output method="xml" indent="yes" omit-xml-declaration="yes" />

    <xsl:param name="currentPage" />
    <xsl:variable name="siteRoot" select="$currentPage/ancestor-or-self::*[@level = 1]" />

    <!-- You should be more specific here - but "//" will find all SlideShow documents -->
    <xsl:variable name="slideShowNode" select="$siteRoot//SlideShow" />

    <xsl:template match="/">
        <xsl:apply-templates select="$slideShowNode" />           
    </xsl:template>

    <!-- Template for SlideShow document -->
    <xsl:template match="SlideShow">
        <div class="slideshow">
            <!-- Render all SlideShow Items that have an id in the slideshowitem property -->
            <xsl:apply-templates select="SlideShow_Item[number(slideshowitem)]" />
        </div>
    </xsl:template>

    <xsl:template match="SlideShow_Item">
        <!-- Grab the mediaNode (if using 4.5.0 use the second instead)-->
        <xsl:variable name="mediaNode" select="umbraco.library:GetMedia(slideshowitem, false())" />
        <!-- <xsl:variable name="mediaNode" select="umbraco.library:GetMedia(slideshowitem, false())/Image" /> -->

        <!-- Render the image -->
        <img src="{$mediaNode/umbracoFile}" width="{$mediaNode/umbracoWidth}" height="{$mediaNode/umbracoHeight}" alt="[image]" />
    </xsl:template>

</xsl:stylesheet>

All,

Here is the (simplified) code I had working under 4.0.x.  I am running 4.5.2 at this time.  Thanks a lot for your responses, and please let me know if this sample code changes how you would suggest coding the solution.  I'm also still wondering what your approach is for debugging these xslt scripts!

Thanks again,

-NorthK

<xsl:param name="currentPage"/>
<xsl:template match="/">
<xsl:for-each select="$currentPage/node [string(data [@alias='umbracoNaviHide']) != '1']">
            <img src="{umbraco.library:GetMedia(data[@alias='portfolioItemMainImage'], false)/data[@alias='umbracoFile']}" alt="work sample" />
</xsl:for-each>
</xsl:template>

The translation of that snippet would be:

<xsl:param name="currentPage"/>
<xsl:template match="/">
    <xsl:for-each select="$currentPage/*[not(umbracoNaviHide = 1)]">
        <img src="{umbraco.library:GetMedia(portfolioItemMainImage, false())/umbracoFile}" alt="work sample" />
    </xsl:for-each>
</xsl:template>

For debugging I use the XMLDump (duh - wrote it for that :-) package, or the "debug textarea copy-of trick":

<textarea cols="60" rows="12"><xsl:copy-of select="$currentPage" /></textarea> 

/Chriztian

Chriztian,

When I tried code similar to your translated snippet, I get an xslt save error "System.OverflowException: Value was either too large or too small for an Int32.
at System.Convert.ToInt32(Double value)". My code looks like:

  <xsl:template match="/">
    <xsl:for-each select="$currentPage/*[not(umbracoNaviHide = 1)]">
           <img src="{umbraco.library:GetMedia(slideshowItem, false())/umbracoFile}" alt="work sample" />
    </xsl:for-each>

Any ideas?  Thanks a lot,

-NorthK

North,

could you try making a check to see if the current node contains an image like this:

<xsl:for-each select="$currentPage/*[not(umbracoNaviHide = 1)]">
      <xsl:if test="./slideshowItem != ''">
           <img src="{umbraco.library:GetMedia(slideshowItem, false())/umbracoFile}" alt="work sample" />
      </xsl:if>
</xsl:for-each>

Hello again all,

For some reason, the following very simple xslt doesn't display any results (meaning no nodes are matched).  I've set up the document types as I noted in the first post in this thread, and I have some content published (one node of type slideshow and two child nodes under that of type slideshowItem).  I've modeled this code after the example at http://our.umbraco.org/wiki/reference/xslt/45-xml-schema/xslt-examples-updated-to-new-schema. Does anyone know what is happening?

Thanks,

-NorthK

  <xsl:param name="currentPage"/>
    <xsl:template match="/">
    <xsl:for-each select="$currentPage/slideshowItem[@isDoc]">
       <p>inside loop</p>
    </xsl:for-each>

Hi NorthK,

Are your Document Types named "slideshow" and "slideshowItem" ?

The way you describe it in the first post, I'd assume your doctypes were named "Slideshow" and "Slideshow_Item" (based on the names you gave) - and then the property on Slideshow_Item documents would have the name "slideshowItem" - is that correct?

XML (and thus XSLT) is case-sensitive so it's important to get these right - my first code example uses "SlideShow" instead of "Slideshow" so that wouldn't work - have you tried that piece of code with your exact names?

Otherwise, try the textarea-debug method:

<textarea><xsl:copy-of select="$currentPage/ancestor-or-self::root" /></textarea>

- and post some of it here so we can see the exact setup
