Blog query with custom attributes not working

Vote:
 

I am trying to query for a blog with custom boolean attribute set to 'true'.

 

I have written the following query to retrieve the blogs with attrubite 'IsHomeBlog' set to true.

 

 BlogQuery blogQuery = new BlogQuery();

            BooleanCriterion IsHomeCriterion= new BooleanCriterion();
            IsHomeCriterion.Value = true;
            blogQuery["IsHomeBlog"] = IsHomeCriterion;


            // We only want user defined blogs
            blogQuery.BlogType = new BlogTypeCriterion();
            blogQuery.BlogType.Value = BlogType.UserBlog;

 

 // Sort by the number of entries
            blogQuery.OrderBy.Add(new CriterionSortOrder(blogQuery.NumEntries, EPiServer.Common.Sorting.SortingDirection.Descending));

BlogCollection blogs = BlogHandler.GetQueryResult(blogQuery,1,Limit,out totalItems);

 

. No blogs are returned now even though I have blogs where ishomeblog attribute is set to true . when i remove the custom attribute criterian, results are returned.

Custom attriburtes work fine with entryquery but not blogquery. Am i doing something wrong here?

As far as I can see (and test) you code is good.

I have only two ideas for an explanation, and you probably have checked both but in case you have not: Either you misspelled IsHomeBlog in the code or when you created the attribute. Or the blogs are of a type that is not returned by the query, e.g. ExpertBlogs.
