Retrieve templateid or templatename from Node.

Templates and document types
Hi,

I have search for how to retrieve templateid or templatename from current node. But I cant seem to get it to work.

I want to get all nodes that have a template assigned (for a navigation menu).

But i cant seem to get it to work... i want to achieve something like below.
I guess this is simple and that i have missed something essential...

Ideas and examples anyone?
```
var Nodes = root.Children.Where("Template != null");
```

Hi,

I believe Template is stored as an integer and nodes without templates have a value of 0. So try this instead:
```
var Nodes = root.Children.Where("Template > 0");
```
HTH,

Is this v4 or v5? Seems to work for me on v4, are you sure your root variable is right?

V5, sorry...

    root = DynamicModel;
    var barnNoder = root.Children.Where("Template > 0");

I managed to solve this with this code, maybe not that fancy... but it works.
But im hoping for a better way in the future. =)

        root = DynamicModel;
        var barnNoder = root.Children;
        foreach (var item in barnNoder)
        {
            string templatenamn = item.Template.ToString();
            if (templatenamn != "")

Hi,

Yep, was just going to suggest that as a workaround :)

I think there might be a bug. I would think this would work but it returns nothing:
```
var nodes = DynamicModel.Children.Where("Template == @0", "Textpage");
```
I did some testing and couldn't get it working and also found some other bugs, it seems when you do a .Where you then lose the .Template on your nodes. Going to test further and report an issue.
