I am not sure if this works, but have you tried:

foreach(var page in currentNode.Children.Random(1).Where("Visible").Where("featuredRecipe").Where("myPickerProperty.Contains(\"bla\")"))

Of course you can always fall back on doing it inside the foreach: 

foreach(var page in currentNode.Children.Random(1).Where("Visible").Where("featuredRecipe")) {
  if (page.myPickerProperty.Contains("bla") {
     //do something
  } 
} 

Hi Sebasiaan,

Thanks for the reply - the first way looks correct and if i use this method using say bodyText this seems to work fine.

e.g. foreach(var page in currentNode.Children.Random(1).Where("Visible").Where("featuredRecipe").Where("bodyText.Contains(\"bla\")"))

However, it does not seem to want to play when I am referencing a multi node tree picker...

I would probably need it to work the first way. If not i can always go back and try it in XSLT!

Thanks -

Kenny

Oh  no, not XSLT! ;-)

Okay, try to do Where("myPickerProperty.ToString().Contains(\"bla\") instead. There is some upcasting going on, so the picker likely doesn't get represented as a string.

:(

I know, i am quite enjoying Razor but this really is driving me insane!

Still no luck - would it be something like myPickerProperty.Values.ToString().Contains(\"bla\")

???

Awesome! To be honest, it shouldn't be this hard, but I'm glad you got it to work.

Thanks again :)

Hi,

Related to this, why would the following return nodes containing "2742", but the latter not return anything?

//works

foreach (var post in selection.Where("postCategories.ToString().Contains(\"2742\")").OrderBy("BlogPostDate desc").Take(20))

// doesn't

string categoryId = "2742";
foreach (var post in selection.Where("postCategories.ToString().Contains(\"@categoryId\")").OrderBy("BlogPostDate desc").Take(20))

Thanks for your help,
Amir
