Add new fields to LinkItem

Vote:
 

Hi,

We are using Episerver 7 and we are currently using the LinkItemCollection property and we are wanting to add a few more fields to the LinkItem control. Is this possible?

So for example: we have Link name/text, Link title, Open in:, Page, media, catalog content, E-mial, external link - can we add a few more such as SessionID (string), isParent (boolean), childID (string) etc?

 

Thanks

Jon

If I am not wrong, you can create your own class that derives from LinkItem and add your properties to that. For example

public class ExtendedLinkItem : LinkItem
{
   public string SessionId {get;set;}
   .....
}

    I'm not able to test this, but I think we have done something like that before.

Hi Henrik,

How would you then add this to a LinkItemCollection?
