MultiPage Property
Vote:
I am using the MultiPage property developed by Jeremy Norman and Nick Urry.
It works fine when listing related EPi pages. The code I use for this is:
relatedPagesContainer.DataSource = ((PropertyMultiPage)CurrentPage.Property["relatedPages"]).SelectedPages;
relatedPagesContainer.DataBind();
The only problem is that it doesn't list links to external pages.
I tried using ((PropertyMultiPage)CurrentPage.Property["relatedPages"]).SelectedLinkItems, but then I get this error:
"Unable to cast object of type 'Intergen.EP.Utils.MultipageLinkItem' to type 'EPiServer.Core.PageData'."
How can I list anything else besides EpiServer pages?
Thanks in advance :)

Hello Steven,
I have not worked anything with the linkitems only the epi pages..
but here are my suggestions.
I am guessing here that you want the selected pages and the linkitems in same collection?
if so you can maybe do like this:
#15416
PageDataCollection pdc = ((PropertyMultiPage)CurrentPage.Property["relatedPages"]).SelectedPages;
Intergen.EP.Utils.MultipageLinkItemCollection itemcol = (PropertyMultiPage)CurrentPage.Property["relatedPages"]).SelectedLinkItems;
for(i = 0;i < itemcol.Count;i++)
{
pdc.Add(new PageData(itemcol[i].PageLink));
}
relatedPagesContainer.DataSource = pdc;
relatedPagesContainer.DataBind();
(OBS Syntax not tested)
You should also be able to use the LinkItemCollection to create a new PageDataCollection if you only want the linkitems in a seperate container.
That might work or atleast give you some ideas how to solve your issue.

They are not in the same list actually. But will see if I can use your code in some way.
