Problem with .AncestorsOrSelf(Level) and (doctype) in upgraded site
I've got some issues with a razor script I've written.
foreach (var page in @Model.AncestorsOrSelf(3)) { <p>@page.NodeTypeAlias</p> }
It seems to output pages that aren't at level 3. Is that me misunderstanding the .AncestorsOrSelf(level) or is it a problem with my site.
I also can't get to grips with .AncestorsOfSelf(doctypealias)
foreach (var page in @Model.AncestorsOrSelf("CountryHomepage")) { <p>@page.NodeTypeAlias</p> }
Is returning:

How does that work! This is an umbraco instance that I've upgraded from 4.0.something to 4.7.2 this week and I'm transitioning the old xslt to razor. I need to get this live by end of Monday, please help.
@Model.AncestorsOrSelf("CountryHomepage") I dont think there's an overload for that, perhaps Model.AncestorsOrSelf.CountryHomepage works (but I would use the index if possible).
The meaning of AncestorsOrSelf is to return all ancestors + self. The integer overload I never tried: "A level filtered call .Method(int) - returns nodes which are <= or >= (depending on if you're using Ancestors or Descendants) the desired number" (see the link).
I use razor with legacy xlst schema on a few sites, cannot see why it should be a problem?

Razor doesn't work with the legacy xml so if you're still using that you need to change it to the new xml format.

Hi, I think you just need to remove that "s", AncestorOrSelf(3), see also http://umbraco.com/follow-us/blog-archive/2011/3/13/umbraco-razor-feature-walkthrough-part-5.aspx
@Model.AncestorsOrSelf("CountryHomepage") I dont think there's an overload for that, perhaps Model.AncestorsOrSelf.CountryHomepage works (but I would use the index if possible).
@Jeroen - Thanks I'd already thought about that, and set to new XML schema & republished
@Jonas - using AncestorOrSelf(3) works. But I don't understand the meaning of AncestorsOrSelf.
Good to hear it works. :)
