How to filter pages where children in listview?
Hello. I render navigation recursivly and collided with a problem: I don't want to render items that is a list of items like blog.

What I want:
```
// Navigation
Page 1 (has children)
-- sub-page 1
-- sub-page 2
Page 2 (no children)
Blog (has a lot of children)
```
So, I would create a property in blog like "isListView" to filter by it, but may be exists a builtin property to do the same?

Hi Dimitry,

yes you are correct, Umbraco has a builtin property called umbracoNaviHide.

To use this, you need to add a new property of type true/false where you change the alias of the property to: umbracoNaviHide.

Then you can filter your list by using .Where("Visible") and then you will only get the items where this property is set to false.

Hope this helps.

Hi, Michaël

I know about this property, but I don't want to hide parant to list page from navigation, I only want to hide all of children and dont force users to check umbracoNaviHide

Like:
```
Blog (not hidden) 
-- blog-post-1 (hidden)
-- blog-post-2 (hidden)
```

Depending on how you have coded your nav, you could for example exclude the blog posts by their document type alias:
```
.Where(x => x.DocumentTypeAlias != "blogPost")
```

Hi, Matt

I thought about that and I don't like that way, because it is not universal. What if sitetree will be axtended another listview that is not blogpost?

Now I thinking about trying to add a composition document type with one property like "isList" and add it type to every ListView document type
