I've been working on a (Frankenstein!) package since tuesday, and if I may say it's starting to look quite slick. https://tenor.com/view/working-anakin-starwars-gif-4653092 Feedback welcome, PRs & tests even more welcome. Need to find a ton of "empty" cases to support and make an extension point for them. Otherwise, I think this'll work. 😁

infinite #h5yr's to @leekelleher & @Lotte for letting me snag their code and cheering me on! ❤

Awesome, I look forward to giving it a try... you never know, I may end up getting nerd snipped 😉

About to see if I can make gh actions build an alpha release and stuff on nuget.

Interesting! I would usually solve this on a ViewModel creation level before handing it off to an API/View as output.

Never again. 😁

This reminds me of a thing I did before, for a client to sync PageTitle and Name, eg the other way around, they were used to V6 and having moved to v7 would open a new document, fill in the content including pageTitle, press 'save' and totally miss that they hadn't filled in the 'Name' field, and the validation at the time, only put an orange line around, so they'd click away and lose their work... but I think what you have here really helps give a UI to that FallBack.ToAncestors functionality that used to be key to building Umbraco Sites, but which can hide to editors just where is that content coming from!

Or copy a page 20 times and not update the seo texts. 🙈
