I have a created a settings panel in Media, backoffice. I want to use the WebsiteModel from there.  
In other places i can do something like “website = \_requestModelAccessor.RequestModel.WebsiteModel” and then work with the values. But the RequestModel is null when i get here. Is there another way to get the WebSiteModel or can i get a populated RequestModel somehow?

`RequestModel` comes from the accelerator and isn’t available in the back office. BO is agnostic as to what website is used.

Could you simply get the website via `WebsiteService`? What is the settings panel for?

Yes i can get the website via WebsiteService. But i can’t understand why i can’t get values the same way. If the website comes from the RequestModel i can do like this :  
var exampleValue = website.GetValue(AcceleratorWebsiteFieldNameConstants.ExampleValue);  
But that doesn’t give me any value if the website comes from WebsiteService. What is the difference. I create a WebsiteModel and pass the Website as parameter, so it looks the same as a website from the RequestModel, but it doesn’t behave the same. What am i missing?

OK, i had to pass cultureInfo as parameter to get values from the WebsiteService website.

Yes, and keep in mind that for the BO `CultureInfo.CurrentCulture` is what the user has selected as their editing language and `CultureInfo.CurrentUiCulture` is what they’ve selected as their interface language. Whereas for the public site these are connected to the settings on the channel.
