Sitecore HTML Helper Methods – Part 1

Here is my cheat-sheet for all the html helper methods that I use all the time, and there are some that I find every day, and I just get excited about what Sitecore can give us.

Current Item

@Html.Sitecore().CurrentItem

Current Field

@Html.Sitecore().Field("Title")

Field with different source

@Html.Sitecore().Field("Title", Sitecore.Context.Database.GetItem("{858FAD09-070A-45BA-BA29-446940A3EC4F}"));

Create a image with a url that can be edited in Experience Editor

@Html.Sitecore().Field("link", new { text = @Html.Sitecore().Field("Image") })

 Placeholder

 @Html.Sitecore().Placeholder("main")

Image Field with class

@Html.Sitecore().Field("Image", new { @class = "img-responsive" })

Field that will allow you disable the web editing feature in Experience Editor

@Html.Sitecore().Field("Heading", new { DisableWebEdit = true })

@foreach (Sitecore.Data.Items.Item item in Html.Sitecore().CurrentItem.GetChildren())
 {
@Html.Sitecore().Field("Heading", item)
@Html.Sitecore().Field("Preview", item)
}

@Html.Sitecore().VisitorIdentification()

More stuff coming soon…
