Using Umbraco And Getting Started

Umbraco 8

Hi all,

I was running an early version of Umbraco 8, my website was working fine so before go live I upgraded to the latest version of Umbraco before being published.

However a selection seems to have stopped working, I'm getting no data displayed using the following;

            @{
                var selection = Model.ChildrenOfType("generalTemplate && generalGridLayout")
                .Where(x => x.IsVisible());
            }
            <div class="w-row">
                @foreach (var item in selection)
                {
                    <div class="w-col w-col-2">
                        <a href="@item.Url" class="blue-box-test w-inline-block">
                            <h3 class="box-title">@item.Name</h3>

                        </a>
                    </div>
                }
            </div>

Unfortunately I get no errors, just no data.

Thanks

Hi,

It does look like that extension was changed. Try:

string[] childTypes = { "textPage", "collectionsListingPage" };
var selection = Model.Children().Where(x => x.IsVisible() && childTypes.Contains(x.ContentType.Alias));
