Member	lwhittemore-emh - 1/16/2012 11:58:31 AM Help with repeater I have two repeaters on a page, one shows the selected document on the left and the second shows a list of documents on the right. Both use the same document type. Is there a way to add a statement to the right repeater's Where condition to only show documents on the right that have the same "Category" field as the selected document?


Kentico Support	kentico_janh - 1/17/2012 1:57:09 AM RE:Help with repeater Hello, A selected document is always a current displayed document, so you can use a context macro in your where condition and select only documents with the same CategoryID (or any other field) as the current document has: WHERE condition: CategoryID = {%CurrentDocument.CategoryID%} Best regards, Jan Hermann


Member	lwhittemore-emh - 1/17/2012 7:08:51 AM RE:Help with repeater Thanks, that's what I needed. However, it was throwing an error but I figured it out. I needed to sing quotes around the macro. WHERE condition: CategoryID = '{%CurrentDocument.CategoryID%}'


Kentico Support	kentico_janh - 1/17/2012 7:34:01 AM RE:Help with repeater Hello, You're right, because context macro returns a string, so you need to place it between two quites. Best regards, Jan Hermann
