Hi,

Did you tried Brenden's example without using brackets at the end (without '()')? Should try something like this:

{% foreach (x in Documents[NodeAliasPath].Children.WithAllData){ %}
    {%x.GetValue("ColumnName")%} 
{% } |(identity)GlobalAdministrator%}

Which version of Kentico you are using? There was an issue with Documents macro in Kentico 10, which is fixed in hotfix 10.0.4 I think.

Best regards, Dragoljub

If these are custom fields you've added to a page type, you'll need to add another piece to this (not tested):

{% foreach (x in Documents[NodeAliasPath].Children.WithAllData()){ %}
    {%x.GetValue("ColumnName")%} 
{% } |(identity)GlobalAdministrator%}

Test/check your macros using the Macro Console under System -> Macros -> Console

Yes, as I mentioned test/check your macros using the Macro Console under System -> Macros -> Console. You'll have to change the NodeAliasPath to an actual string value like:

Documents["/Some/Path/In/Your/Tree"].Children.WithAllData()
