    Nested Content - Name Template - Dropdown list display value not ID

    I'm new to Umbraco and Nested Content it very useful. I have a set where the first item is a simple dropdown list (to select a type of social media). If I set the Name Template to something like {{type}} where type is the name of the dropdown I get the id. How do I get the value (text) for the field.

    Thank you in advance.

    Looking at the issues tracker for Nested Content, it doesn't seem possible im afraid.

    https://github.com/umco/umbraco-nested-content/issues/42

    That's just how it works I'm afraid, as the nameTemplate only runs on the SAVED value, which a dropdown saves the prevalues ID, not it's value. /mattbrailsford

    Sorry.. :(
