I'm trying to get all nodes of a certain type - regardless of publish state (hence why I'm using ContentService). I figured I'd get all nodes and filter from there.
From the code as well as other forum threads it seems like I want ContentService.GetPagedDescendants() - but I'm running into an issue where it returns 0 elements. Even more curiously, the out totalRecordsdoes return the proper number.
Here's my content structure:
And the code:
As you can see, descendants has 0 elements but returnCount is 3 (as is expected).
I am also getting this, even when I pass in -1 for the rootNode.Id. I am able to do below:
IEnumerable<IContent> z = contentService.GetPagedDescendants(-1, 1, 1000, out totalStale).Where(x => x.Published).AsEnumerable<IContent>()
But 0 results are returned. How 0dd. Does it work for you when you move the code into a Razor View and Use IPublishedContent instead? Depending on what you are trying to accomplish, this might be a viable alternative.
I haven't tried anything with IPublishedContent as I need all IContent, not just published elements. This is being used in an on save handler so there's no view for it.
Had the same problem, but @Martijn helped me with this :) !
This is what I have:
IEnumerable<IContent> Children = Services.ContentService.GetPagedDescendants(pageId, 0, 5, out long TotalChildren, null, Ordering.By("date", Direction.Ascending, null, true));
I glossed right over this the first time or two. Changing the pageIndex to 0 is what fixed the issue for me too. I'm not sure why a zero index was confusing here, but it was. Unfortunately, I had to find that myself since I skipped right over this as the answer. Just trying to reinforce this as the answer since it wasn't marked as such.
