    Umbraco.TypedContent() - no decendants?

    Hi all,

    In WebApi backend code I'm trying to access the published content using strong typed method.

    var parent = Umbraco.TypedContent(id);

    Then I want to find all decendants - but what works in razor doesnt work here...

    In razor I would do:

     

    var items = parent.Descendants("EventHub").Where(o => o.IsVisible())

    But It seems that Decendants is not avail?

    best

    Jesper

    Awesome, it's because most of those methods are extension methods so you need to the reference.

    Thx. Do you know if its mentioned anywhere?
    It's surely an issue for anyone not knowing - and that will push them towards less fantastic code :)

    Unfortunately IPublishedContent itself has not really been documented yet (this is it) and this documentation would also include the extension methods and that they are extension methods. I know it is on the list to be documented soon, but there are never enough hours in the day! :-)
