Info about a specific document

Not sure if this is possible... was trying to determine if there's a way to get the context info for a specific page. I'm trying to drop a header above a CSS list menu, and was hoping to do something along the lines of...

<h3>{%# CMSContext.Document("/{0}").DocumentMenuCaption %}</h3>

Is this possible? Am I missing something obvious?

Member	ECAbacus - 10/24/2012 8:45:02 AM RE:Info about a specific document Yes, I know how to get this information about the CurrentDocument. I'm asking how to get similar information a document which isn't being loaded into the template.


Kentico Support	kentico_janh - 10/24/2012 2:13:45 PM RE:Info about a specific document Hello, Sure, you need to specify the alias path for that document like: {%Documents["/Home"].DocumentMenuCaption%} Best regards, Jan Hermann

Member	ECAbacus - 10/25/2012 3:55:02 PM RE:Info about a specific document Quick follow up. Say I was deep in the tree but wanted information about the first ancestor of the current node... {%Documents["/{0}"].DocumentMenuCaption%} doesn't seem to find it. Suggestions?


Kentico Support	kentico_janh - 10/25/2012 4:14:23 PM RE:Info about a specific document Hello, I found a way how to do that and here it is: {% path = CurrentDocument.NodeAliasPath.Split("/"); return Documents["/"+path[1]].DocumentName; %} Best regards, Jan Hermann
