    Convert or Return Model.Content.Site() as an "Editable" object such as List and not an IEnumerable

    Templates, (partial) views and macros
    Umbraco 7

    I need to filter / remove child collections (Sub Pages) that meet a certain criteria. The IEnumerable returned from Model.Content.Site() is uneditable, and i don't want to have to duplicate the entire hierarchy over to an editable list. Is there a way of returning the Content object as a List or an editable object?

    Hi Keith

    You can use copy of list and make it editable:

    var editableList = Model.Content.Site().Children.ToList();

    Hi Alex,

    Sorry i should have been clearer with my question.

    I also need the collections within the children to be Lists also.

    When i use ToList() it will just convert the Children i call ToList on and not its child collections also.

    To give some context its for a navigation that will be 3 levels deep, and i will need to remove nodes on any of the levels.

    I was hoping that i wouldn't have to iterate over several levels of IEnumerable Collections converting to Lists and rebuilding the hierarchy in another object.

    Regards,

    Keith
