Question

Is there any module in Orchard CMS that I can install to get a checkbox list? I checked in the gallery but could not find one. If there is none, is there is a workaround this?

I want to associate a product item with multiple categories (fixed set of categories).

Thanks!

EDIT :

I checked the Taxonomy module as per the suggestion. Now, I want to access the terms in the view. I have seen some posts where they can access it using
(IEnumerable<Contrib.Taxonomies.Models.TermPart>)Model.Terms

Using shape tracing, I am trying to figure out how to access the terms. My model doesn’t have any terms field! I can access my custom type (Project) which has ‘ProjectCategory’ as Taxonomy Field. But there is no mean to view/select terms from there.

See attached screenshots.

Any idea?

Answer 1

I managed to access the terms the following way :

IEnumerable<TermPart> assignedTerms = _taxonomyService.GetTermsForContentItem(contentItemId, "NameOfTaxonomy");
