Or() in Examine doesn't work with me | Umbraco 8

Hello all,

I am using Examine to return some nodes, all is fine except when I add Or() to the query.. it returns no results.

Am I using it wrongly ?

results = searcher.CreateQuery()
                            .Field("path", Model.Path.ToString().MultipleCharacterWildcard()).And()
                            .Field("__IndexType", "content").And()
                            .Field("articleCountry", (countryUDI != null ? countryUDI.ToString() : "")).And()
                            .Field("parentID", selectedYear != 0 ? selectedYear : "").And()
                            .Field("nodeName", selectedTerm != "" ? searchTerm.ToString() : searchTerm.ToString()).Or()
                            .Field("title", selectedTerm != "" ? searchTerm.ToString() : searchTerm.ToString()).And()
                            .Field("__NodeTypeAlias", "newsLetter").Execute();

Thanks

Hi Saif,

Please can you try this query instead and see if it works for you. I have tried with GroupedOr

                var fields = new List<string> { "nodeName", "title" };
                results = searcher.CreateQuery()
                                            .Field("path", Model.Path.ToString().MultipleCharacterWildcard()).And()
                                            .Field("__IndexType", "content").And()
                                            .Field("articleCountry", (countryUDI != null ? countryUDI.ToString() : "")).And()
                                            .Field("parentID", selectedYear != 0 ? selectedYear : "").And()
                                            .GroupedOr(fields, selectedTerm != "" ? searchTerm.ToString() : searchTerm.ToString()).And()
                                            .Field("__NodeTypeAlias", "newsLetter").Execute();

It worked! ..

but with this way, but it didn't return all nodes when the search term was null or empty string..

how could I make the query return results when the search term is empty string?

Hi Saif,

We can have if check to fix this issue.

                var fields = new List<string> { "nodeName", "title" };
if (!string.IsNullOrEmpty(searchTerm)) {
                results = searcher.CreateQuery()
                                            .Field("path", Model.Path.ToString().MultipleCharacterWildcard()).And()
                                            .Field("__IndexType", "content").And()
                                            .Field("articleCountry", (countryUDI != null ? countryUDI.ToString() : "")).And()
                                            .Field("parentID", selectedYear != 0 ? selectedYear : "").And()
                                            .GroupedOr(fields, selectedTerm != "" ? searchTerm.ToString() : searchTerm.ToString()).And()
                                            .Field("__NodeTypeAlias", "newsLetter").Execute();
}
else {
                results = searcher.CreateQuery()
                                            .Field("path", Model.Path.ToString().MultipleCharacterWildcard()).And()
                                            .Field("__IndexType", "content").And()
                                            .Field("articleCountry", (countryUDI != null ? countryUDI.ToString() : "")).And()
                                            .Field("parentID", selectedYear != 0 ? selectedYear : "").And()
                                            .Field("__NodeTypeAlias", "newsLetter").Execute();
}

Hi Shaishav,

We have already tried that, but we are searching for a better way, isn't there? because we duplicate some code.
