Umbraco 6 looking for someNode.DescendantsOrSelf("nodeType")

Hello,

Starting in Umbraco 6 now, but I'm having trouble finding the methods I'm looking for (maybe I'm not looking for the right ones).

Basically I'm looking for someNode.DescendantsOrSelf("nodeType"), which I used to use a lot in older projects. How do we accomplish this now in Umbraco 6?

Thanks!

You must reference the PublishedContentExtensions from the Umbraco.Web namespace. There you will find those methods.

Ohh I see! So this here would be right?
```
@using Umbraco.Web.Models
@inherits Umbraco.Web.Mvc.UmbracoTemplatePage

@{
    var descendants = ((DynamicPublishedContent)CurrentPage).Descendants("someType");
}
```
Is there a better (without casting) way of doing this?

Thanks!

Just add @using Umbraco.Web.PublishedContentExtensions and use the extension methods directly over Model.Content

Have tried to add the
```
@using Umbraco.Web.PublishedContentExtensions
```
but he tolds me that this is a type and not a namespace.

How can i use the Extensions?

Sitting on Umbraco 6.0.0.

Thanks in advance!

David, maybe you are missing a reference in your Visual Studio project?
