Umbraco Content data source doesn't work on member
See original GitHub issueWhich Contentment version are you using?
1.4.4
Which Umbraco version are you using? For example: 8.14.1 - don’t just write v8
8.13.1
Bug summary
Not sure if this is a bug in Contentment as it is also the behaviour with MNTP.
When using Umbraco Content data source on a member, the data list doesn’t show any data. This is probably because it doesn’t know about the context. I can probably use $root
instead of $site
when we know only a single site node is used:
I suggested this some time ago to make MNTP work on Media and Member types, when current section is not Content section: https://github.com/umbraco/Umbraco-CMS/pull/10049
Steps to reproduce
Create a datatype using Data List and Umbraco Content as datasource.
Specify Xpath query using $site
and add a property to a member type using this datatype.
When “Add” on member property no content is shown in overlay.

The main reason for the Umbraco dependency bump was to do with the
<umb-icon>
directive, (and v8.14 was the latest at the time). Always tricky for a package developer to balance progress/enhancements with maintenance/support. 😬Feel free to reuse what you need from the Examine data-source - if it helps? e.g. https://github.com/leekelleher/umbraco-contentment/blob/dev/v2.x/src/Umbraco.Community.Contentment/DataEditors/DataList/DataSources/ExamineDataListSource.cs
Closing off this issue, (as per the original query). As mentioned above, https://github.com/leekelleher/umbraco-contentment/issues/184#issuecomment-963215362, the “Umbraco Content” data-source was (limited) designed to work within the Content section.
