Hi Team,

I'm working on a requirement where nested multifields should be there. So I came up with an approach there I haven't used any js to retrieve nested multifields values. But now I want to get the iteration number(occurrence) for parent multifield. I will put the sample code and will show at where I want to take the iteration number. Any help would be appreciated.

//here need to get the iteration number (like first iteration,second iteration something like itemList.count) of multifield named item 1

//here need to get the iteration number of multifield named item 2

</sly>

Hi @mayursatav

I tried that but still not working. Have you tried the same scenario ?

Thanks

Hi @jakecham,

It should be the list Identifier name (in this case, you have used firstMenuItems and secondMenuItems) followed by the term "List". Example below for clarity

<dl data-sly-list.firstMenuItems="${currentPage.listChildren}">
    <dt>index: ${firstMenuItemsList.index}</dt>
    <dd>value: ${firstMenuItems.title}</dd> // any property part of the list item.
</dl>

If we aren't using any, default variable to access the index and individual item is itemList and item respectively

<dl data-sly-list="${currentPage.listChildren}">
    <dt>index: ${itemList.index}</dt>
    <dd>value: ${item.title}</dd>
</dl>

Hi @jakecham

For iterration number you can use

<sly data-sly-list-firstMenuItems="${firstmultifield.getChildren}">
    <p>${itemList.index}</p>
</sly>

to get the iteration number of multifield named item 2

 <sly data-sly-list-secondMenuItems="${seconmultifield .getChildren}">
            <sly data-sly-test="${itemList.index == 2}" data-sly-unwrap>
                <p> ${itemList.index}</p>
            </sly>
 </sly>
