Can't figure out nested list, getting no results

[sheferd]

I'm not having much luck getting my nestedlists to return their data.

{exp:stash:set_list:nested name="event_type_list" parse_tags="yes"}
        {en_event_type}
            {stash:en_event_type_item}{option}{/stash:en_event_type_item}
        {/en_event_type}
{/exp:stash:set_list:nested}

and

{exp:stash:get_list:nested name="event_type_list" prefix="nested"}
            <li>
                {nested:en_event_type_item} (Item {nested:count} of {nested:absolute_results})
            </li>
{/exp:stash:get_list:nested}

I've tried with the context tag also but still no luck. Also I'm not sure I completly understand the context tag?

Thanks

Have you seen this section in the docs? https://github.com/croxton/Stash/wiki/Lists#three-and-more-dimensional-lists You're probably missing the link between your nested list and the one it's inside.

BTW, questions like this are best posted on Stackexchange. ;-) http://expressionengine.stackexchange.com/

Thanks for the reply, I had taken my code directly from the docs and re read that page a bunch of times. I did have context in there as well but with the same result.

thanks for the heads up though, I'll take this over to SE
