    Ordering a dynamic nodelist by custom property

    Hi

    I have a dynamic nodelist called newsitems. I output from this using the following:

    @foreach (var newslistitem in newslist.Distinct()){

    .. and it works great. But when outputting I need to order by the custom property called dateWritten.

    Suggestions?

    Hi Bo,

    Have you tried to do something like this

    @foreach (var newslistitem in newslist.Distinct().OrderBy("dateWritten")){ 

}

    Hope this helps,

    Hi Bo,

    Okay what if you do something like this.

    @foreach (var newslistitem in newslist.Distinct().OrderBy(x => x.GetPropertyValue<string>("dateWritten")){ 

}

    If the dateWritten property is not at string then try change the type so it matched.

    Hope this helps,

    /Dennis

    Hi

    You are missing a ")" but even though I add this, then I still get an error. This time the error is http://cl.ly/312D0e2U400u
