Using Umbraco 7

I want to search two of my doc types that exist in the ExternalSearch index.

I'm getting back results for all doctypes.

Here's my query:

 ISearchCriteria searchCriteria = searcher.CreateSearchCriteria(BooleanOperation.Or);
 // TODO : This bit of the query doesn't work - returns all node types
 var query = searchCriteria.NodeTypeAlias("Product").Or().NodeTypeAlias("Service");

 query = query.And().GroupedOr(new[] {"title", "description"}, new[] { term });
 searchCriteria = query.Compile();

 var relatedProducts = Umbraco.ContentQuery.TypedSearch(searchCriteria).Take(count).ToList();

Can anyone see what is wrong? I've tried all sorts of combinations with no luck. I only seem to be able to search 1 or all.

Any ideas?

Hi Rob,

Have a look at this : http://our.umbraco.org/forum/developers/api-questions/47684-Clarification-on-limiting-Examine-search-to-particular-document-type

Hope that helps!

Hi,

I think that the problem is with this line:
```
 var query = searchCriteria.NodeTypeAlias("Product").Or().NodeTypeAlias("Service");
```
I would suggest replacing it with:
```
 var query = searchCriteria.GroupedOr(new string[] {"__NodeTypeAlias"}, "Product", "Service");
```
Let me know if this worked out for you. Doron

Thanks for the responses, I also had to change the default operation to BooleanOperation.And as otherwise the generated query looked like this:
```
(nodeTypeAlias:product nodeTypeAlias:service) +(title:test description:test)
```
and still returned other doc types.
