The testimonials document type is purely there to act as a container so I can enable list view to look at all the testimonials and manage them.
On the homepage I am then trying to populate an object with all the testimonials but I am unable. Any variation of @Model.Content.Children or @Model.Content.Children.Where(...) returns nothing and in debugger I get message:
"Children could not be evaluated"
I have also tried .Descendants(). Same thing. What am I missing here?
Turns out its an EF issue with lazy loading. Adding .ToList() makes it viewable in the debugger. Not sure why my code wasn't working originally. I have got it working with strongly typed query now.

It works with:
I don't understand why dynamic query works and strongly typed one does not. Is it something to do with the cache?
Can anyone explain this for my own understanding and learning?
