Member	merete-grape - 2/11/2014 4:12:28 PM RE:Need to trip whitespace in transformtion Thx a lot :) Works perfect!!


Kentico Legend	Brenden Kehren - 2/11/2014 6:39:03 PM RE:Need to trip whitespace in transformtion Another solution might be to use Eval("NodeAliasPath"). This will give you the full path to the document being rendered. What Kentico does by default is replaces spaces in the document name with a dash (-) to create the URL. So although what Josh provided will work, it might not render the proper URL.


Member	merete-midtskog - 2/12/2014 3:01:14 AM RE:Need to trip whitespace in transformtion Hi FroggEye This is an article placed under a document called "Presentasjon", but the link will be to a document (with the same name) under parent node ("Fotografene"). Don't think it is possible to use your methode then. But thx anyway. :)

RE:Need to trip whitespace in transformtion

Then you'll want to use

Eval("NodeAlias")

This will get you the URL friendly name used for that document. Again, for the reason I mentioned above AND the fact that Kentico will remove/replace any non-url friendly characters in this field whereas the DocumentName or ArticleName fields will allow those non-friendly URL characters.

You can find all the fields available simply by running the view for the corresponding document type. For instance if you're looking for the article fields run:

SELECT *
FROM View_CONTENT_Article_Joined

You can get any doc type's information by following this methodology:

View_<namespace>_<classname>_Joined
