Im trying to use PropertyCriteria with FindPagesWithCriteria() and would like to filter on a category. Is this possible? And how do i do this? This does not work:


Criteria = new PropertyCriteria();
Criteria.Name = "Category";
Criteria.Required = true;
Criteria.StringCondition = StringCompareMethod.Contained;
Criteria.Type = PropertyDataType.Category;
Criteria.Value = Category.Find("region").ID.ToString();

Regards Peter

You have to use "PageCategory" as criteria name, not "Category". Also see the following posting for more info: http://www.episerver.com/templates/ForumItem____1967.aspx Frank :)

			PropertyCriteria pageProperty = new PropertyCriteria();
			pageProperty.Condition = CompareCondition.Equal;
			pageProperty.Type = PropertyDataType.Category;
			pageProperty.Value = m_lbCat.SelectedValue.ToString();//CurrentPage.Property["PageCategory"].ToString();
			pageProperty.Name = "PageCategory";
			criteriaCollection.Add(pageProperty);

			string msg = "" ;   
			foreach(ListItem li in m_lbCat.Items)
			{
				if(li.Selected == true)
				{
							
					msg += "
" + li.Text + " is selected.";
				}
			}
			label1.Text = msg;

I´ve been trying adding this to PageSearch.Criterias Im getting the following error. Why? Error message: Cannot compare property "PageCategory", doesnt support IComparable(?)


PageSearch GlobalList = new PageSearch();
criteria = new PropertyCriteria();
criteria.Name = "PageCategory";
criteria.Required = true;
criteria.Condition = CompareCondition.Equal;
criteria.Type = PropertyDataType.Category;
criteria.Value = "UK,Family";
GlobalList.Criterias.Add(criteria);

You have to use StringCondition and not Condition. Value should be a comma-separated list of ids or names.


PropertyCriteria category = new PropertyCriteria();
category.Name = "PageCategory";
category.Type = PropertyDataType.Category;
category.StringCondition = Filters.StringCompareMethod.Identical;
category.Value = "Technical"; //comma-separated list of ids or names
