    <p>I've been trying to achieve the following with glass mapper but can't get it to work.</p> <p>I have a Home Page template which doesn't have any fields itself but inherits the following two templates:</p> <p><code>Navigation Template</code></p> <p><code>Fields: Navigation Title</code></p> <p><code>Meta Information Template</code></p> <p><code>Fields: Page Title, Meta Description</code></p> <p>I've created the corresponding interfaces / classes as follows:</p> <pre class="lang-cs prettyprint-override"><code>[SitecoreType(TemplateId = "{5BAB563C-12AD-4398-8C4A-BF623F7DBCDC}", AutoMap = true)] public interface INavigation { [SitecoreField(FieldName = "Navigation Title")] string NavigationTitle { get; set; } } [SitecoreType(TemplateId = "{95539498-31A5-4CB5-8DD6-C422D505C482}", AutoMap = true)] public interface IMetaInformation { [SitecoreField] string PageTitle { get; set; } [SitecoreField] string MetaDescription { get; set; } } [SitecoreType(TemplateId = "{F08693E5-8660-4B13-BBD6-7B9DC6091750}", AutoMap = true)] public class HomePage : INavigation, IMetaInformation { public virtual string NavigationTitle { get; set; } public virtual string PageTitle { get; set; } public virtual string MetaDescription { get; set; } } </code></pre> <p>When I then try accessing my page all attributes are always null:</p> <pre class="lang-cs prettyprint-override"><code>var context = new SitecoreContext(); var page = context.GetCurrentItem&lt;HomePage&gt;(); </code></pre> <p>I've tried several different approaches to this but nothing works. Also what was described in different tutorials didn't work. The only thing that works is when I add the fields directly on the Home Page template, but I don't want that since I have more than one page type and I therefore want to inherit the fields. </p> <p>Does anyone have any idea what I'm missing here?! I'm using Sitecore 7 with .NET 4.5 by the way if that makes a difference.</p>

    1. COI'm not sure if you can AutoMap on interface level. Try defining explicit [SitecoreField()] attributes on the interface properties and remove the AutoMap property on the interfaces. See if that works. I also suggest you use FieldId="" to map to GUIDs instead of field names.

    2. COHi Ruud, Thanks for your reply. I removed the automap and added the fieldid instead. Nothing has changed though. Do I need to enable anything (configs or anything)? I feel like it can't be to hard to get this to work, seems like a pretty basic scenario but I've no idea what I'm missing here.

    3. COHave you correctly setup the initialization of Glass so that it load all the models in memory at startup?

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
