    Nodes with the same document type

    Hello,

    I need to get all nodes of a certain doctype that are children of the current page.

    I've not seen how to do this on Umbraco 8 and the way I used to do it in 7 is not applicable here.

    Is there a precise way of doing this?

    For now, I've been retrieving all children and then checking one by one for their doctype, not efficient at all.

    Hi Yannick

    Have you tried ChildrenOfType ?? extension method on IPublishedContent

    eg

    var childrenOfBlogType = Model.ChildrenOfType("blogPage");
    

    regards

    I was actually able to get everything using this:

    var selection = Model.Descendants().Where(x => x.IsDocumentType("xxx")).Where(y => y.IsVisible());

    Hi Yannick

    Descendants... will pull all descendants into memory eg those below the children... (but sounds like in your circumstance there aren't any!)

    so be careful, in some circumstances you might find it's much more efficient to just use ChildrenOfType... and then you'll get only the children!

    regards
