Hi Owain,

Depending on how you are querying the field in your template you can make this field recursive. Which means will go up though the ancestors until it´s find the field on the page, and it has a value. Try to see this documentation.

Especially rendering a field with UmbracoHelper

https://our.umbraco.org/documentation/Reference/Templating/Mvc/views

Let´s say that you have a field called bodyContent, the the syntax would be like this

@Umbraco.Field("bodyContent", recursive: true)

If you are in a partial view or partial view macro you can do something like this:

@{       
   if (CurrentPage.HasValue("bodyContent", true)){
       <p>@CurrentPage.bodyContent</p>
   }           
}

Hope this helps,
