Filters

Below are the built-in filtering extensions with usage examples.

ExcludeDeleted

Excludes all content that was moved to the trash (recycle bin).

📘

Note

This method is important because, by default, content in the trash is indexed.

SearchClient.Instance.Search<IContent>().ExcludeDeleted()

PublishedInCurrentLanguage

Checks if content is published in the current language.

SearchClient.Instance.Search<IContent>().PublishedInCurrentLanguage()

CurrentlyPublished

Checks if content is currently published in any language.

SearchClient.Instance.Search<IContent>().CurrentlyPublished()

FilterOnReadAccess

SearchClient.Instance.Search<IContent>().FilterOnReadAccess()

FilterForVisitor

Group of filters including ExcludeDelete, PublishedInCurrentLanguage, and FilterOnReadAccess.
