    help for loop through child items

    Hello,

    I have the following structure in content tree:

    en
    - footer
    - - news (document type "News")
    - - - news item 1  (document type "NewsItem") 
    - - - news item 2 (document type "NewsItem") 

    Now i want to loop through all news items from a hight located page 

    I tried the following:

    foreach (dynamic item in Model.DescendantsOrSelf().News.Children) {

    But this does not work

    I have this same structure in one of my sites, I used the lovely XPath method of the model node to very easily do what you ask.

    For a bonus I also am showing here how to order them by some additional date property we have on our news items (in case natural/sorted order is not desired)...

    @foreach (varitem in @Model.XPath(@".//NewsItem").OrderBy("displayDate desc"))

    Best of luck to you!

    Sorry, my post above of course should say var item, with a space, not varitem!
