    Help with querying

    Hello. I'm new to Umbraco. I tried to get every pages with a boolean value to true but I don't seems to get it right. Here's my code right now : 

    @{
  var selection = Umbraco.ContentAtRoot().FirstOrDefault().Children().Where(x => x.GetProperty("menu").Value = true);
}

    I've also tried .GetPropertyValue

    Thanks for your help!

    Hi Marc-Andre

    I assume the property "menu" is a toggle (Yes/No)

    If so then try 

    x => x.GetPropertyValue<bool>("menu").Value == true

    You do need the double equals, and cast the property as a bool.

    If this doesn't work then maybe this

    x => Convert.ToBoolean(x.GetProperty("menu").Value) == true

    Cheers

    Nigel

    Hi Nigel,

    Yes menu is a "checkbox" type.

    Both of them don't work :(

    var selection = Umbraco.ContentAtRoot().FirstOrDefault().Children().Where(x => x.GetPropertyValue<bool>("menuUtil").Value == true);

    Error : 'IPublishedContent' does not contain a definition for 'GetPropertyValue' and no accessible extension method 'GetPropertyValue' accepting a first argument of type 'IPublishedContent' could be found

    var selection = Umbraco.ContentAtRoot().FirstOrDefault().Children().Where(x => Convert.ToBoolean(x.GetProperty("menuUtil").Value) == true);

    Argument 1: cannot convert from 'method group' to 'object'

    Hi Marc-Andre,

    In Umbraco 8 the GetPropertyValue() method is not available anymore.

    Instead you have to use the Value() method. So, applied to your situation:

    @Model.Root().Children.Where(x => x.Value<bool>("menu"))
