    Group pages by Month in creationDate and loop foreach?

    I want to make a list with all my news items where the posts are grouped by month so I got:

    January
    February
    March
    ....

    I know how to make a foreach loop with all Children but I have no clue how I make a distinct selection by only the month.

    Can you please show us what your nodestructure looks like at the moment?

    News
     - item 1
     - item 2

    or maybe
    News
     - 2011-10-02
       - item 1 
     - 2011-09-29
       - item 2

    Sure! It looks like this:

    News 
      - item 1 
      - item 2 
      - item 3
      - etc...

    NiQ,

    Could you try out this.

    @inherits umbraco.MacroEngines.DynamicNodeContext

    @{
    //current month value to compare
    string month=String.Empty;
     var nodes =Model.Descendants().Where("Visible")
    .OrderBy("createDate")

    @foreach (var item in nodes)
       
    {
     //if the month changed to another month change month header
     @if(!month.Equals(item.createDate.ToString("MMMM")))
     {
           month=item.createDate.ToString("MMMM");
           @month

     }
      @item.title
      @item.description
     }
     
    }

    Change the properties accordingly.

    Thanks,

    Rajeev
