Check date value of child

I am trying to check the listedPublishDate value of children, if the listedPublishDate equals today then for every page that matches the date, display contents of that child; if a page does not exist with the matching listedPublishDate date then I would like to have hardcoded text. Something like this:

var displayDate = DateTime.Today.ToString("MMM d, yyyy");

@if (CurrentPage.Children.Where("listedPublishDate == displayDate"))
{

@foreach (var page in pages)
{
@page.Name
@page.Content
}
else

{
Hello World
}
}

Thanks in advance,
Chrys

Hi Chrys,

Welcome to Our!

You are very close already but a few tweaks below for you:

@{
    var pages = CurrentPage.Children.Where("listedPublishDate == @0", DateTime.Today.Date);

    if (pages.Any())
    {
        foreach (var page in pages)
        {
            <p>
                @page.Name
                @page.Content
            </p>
        }
    }
    else
    {
        <p>
            Hello World
        </p>
    }
}

I've assumed in this snippet that listedPublishDate is a Date Picker property editor.
