I need to get the parent (blog) item in the razor view from the viewmodel object for any given blog post.
I'm doing this in the standard List.BlogPostList.cshtml file.
More specifically, I need either the set URL or title. Since the controller is wrapped up in the resources for this application, I don't have direct access to it.
Tried
item.ParentItem().DataItem.GetDefaultUrl()
Got this in the error log:
Could not find a parent item property for the given item. This extension method should only be used for accessing a parent item of DynamicContent items.
Tried
item.GetRelatedParentItems("Blog").ToString()
Got this in the error log:
Type "Blog" cannot be resolved.
Looks like that's close, but I cannot guess as to the parentItemsTypeName
magic string it wants, and of course the Sitefinity documentation is attrocious.
