    How to sort contents based on published month and year

    Hi All,

    I am having several posts in my blog and I want to add Archive on my side bar which will be categorizing the posts based on month and year.

    I am able to fetch all the unique months with year on my sidebar but I am not able to figure out how to display my posts by sorting and grouping only selected month and year.

    Example:

    I am having the following in my sidebar right now.

     

    • November 2014 
    • October 2014 
    • September 2014 
    • August 2014 
    • July 2014 
    • June 2014
    Whenever user clicks on November 2014 I want to display all the posts which was posted on November 2014 irrespective of date and time.
    I am using macro to achieve this.
    Sidebar macro is something like this
    @inherits Umbraco.Web.Macros.PartialViewMacroPage
    @{
       
        var blogs = Umbraco.TypedContentAtRoot().DescendantsOrSelf("ArticulateRichText").OrderBy("publishedDate desc");
        List<string> dateList = new List<string>();
        foreach (dynamic blog in blogs)
        {
    DateTime dates  = blog.GetPropertyValue<DateTime>("publishedDate");
    var month = dates.ToString("MMMM yyyy");
    dateList.Add(@month);
        }
    List<string> uniqueDateList = dateList.Distinct().ToList();
    <ul>
    @foreach(dynamic uniqueDate in uniqueDateList)
    {
    <li><a href="@uniqueDate">@uniqueDate</a></li>
    }
    </ul>
    }
    How to achieve rest of the coding or is there any inbuilt method to achieve the thing that I am looking for.
    Thanks & Regards,
    Arun P K
