Hey guys

I want to display ContentFolders and MediaData and filter it for the current user.

This line gives me the unfiltered content (which is of no use to me):

var folders = repository.GetChildren(folder.ContentLink).ToList(); // gives me 2 hits

but when I try to filter it, I get zero hits:

var filteredFolders = EPiServer.Filters.FilterForVisitor.Filter(foldersLevel1); // gives zero hits

Even when logged in as web admin I get zero hits. The access rights are correct.

Help!

Hello again,

I found out how to. The key was to use the FilterAccess class.

var fa = new FilterAccess();
var folders = repository.GetChildren<IContent>(folder.ContentLink)
   .Where(a => !fa.ShouldFilter(a))
   .ToList();
