Access Umbraco Data with .NET controls This is based on an original article at http://www.umbraco.org/frontpage/documentation/implementingnetcontrols/accessingumbracodata.aspx Getting Started You can access all umbraco content by creating a reference to the umbraco.dll. Use the node factory located at umbraco.presentation.nodeFactory to manipulate the XML used to store all of Umbracos data. First include: using umbraco.presentation.nodeFactory; To get the current node for the page the control is on use the Node.GetCurrent() method: Node curNode = Node.GetCurrent(); Using your newly created node object, you can use work on the current node directly, or use it as a starting point to traverse the entire tree.
