Episerver unified search check if current page ancestor has name

Hello.

I am trying to write a query where I want to search that if any of the ancestors has a particular name. I wrote this but doesn't work

query = query.Filter(i =>
(
!i.MatchTypeHierarchy(typeof(InfoPage)) |
    _contentLoader.GetAncestors(((InfoPage)i).ContentLink).MatchItem(k => k.Name.Match("foresatte"))
)
);

I tried this as well

query = query.Filter(i =>
(
!i.MatchTypeHierarchy(typeof(InfoPage)) |
    _contentLoader.GetAncestors(((InfoPage)i).ContentLink).MatchContainedCaseInsensitive(k => k.Name, "foresatte")
)
);

When I do this

(((InfoPage)i).Ancestors()

Then I get back ids, but I want page name to search on.

Try something like this

  SearchClient.Instance.UnifiedSearch()
                    .Filter(x => ((InfoPage)x).Ancestors().Match(currentPage.PageLink.ToString()))
					.Filter(x => x.SearchTitle("foresatte"))
                    .GetResult()

You can also project the Search Title from any property i.e.

.ProjectTitleFrom(x => x.Name);

I assume you meant Search and Navigation. You can simply add this

public static IEnumerable<string> AncestorNames(this IContent content)
{
return _contentLoader.GetAncestors(content.ContentLink.ToReferenceWithoutVersion()).Select(x => x.Name);
}

then include it in your convention then use in your query.
