How to get value of field with "Pages" form control with Kentico API?

Targutai Yesugei asked on August 23, 2017 10:28

I tried to use GetValue(), but it returns null, so I think that this page list is stored somewhere else.

Thank you in advance.

Hi,

If you're asking how to show a page type field on the page tab then I use a static text widget and the following Macro:

{% CurrentDocument["Description"] |(identity)GlobalAdministrator%}

I see you are talking about "Related Pages". The field is empty because this control replicates Related pages functionality, It just lets you do the same thing on the form tab that you could do on properties/related pages tab. All data is stored in CMS_RelationshipName and CMS_Relationship tables. You can use Document Query for that

// nodeGuid  - is the Node Guid of your document

// Get documents related to specified document
var documents = DocumentHelper.GetDocuments("CMS.MenuItem")
                              .OnSite("CorporateSite")
                              .InRelationWith(nodeGuid, "IsRelatedTo");
