using (var fluent = App.WorkWith())

var list = fluent.BlogPosts()

.Where(b => b.Status == ContentLifecycleStatus.Live)

.Get().Take(5);

I'm using the following to return blog posts but posts that are still in draft status are being included. Is this a bug or am I not querying them correctly?

Hello Jeff,

Can you try to set the .Visible attribute to true as well, so that the blog posts can be properly filtered - if you set the Visible attribute to true, you will notify the system to take items that are publicly visible. For example:

var BlogPosts = App.WorkWith().BlogPosts().Where(p => p.Parent.Title == "blog2" && p.Status == ContentLifecycleStatus.Live && p.Visible == true).Get().ToList();

The following query will return all published blog posts that are in the Blog called blog2. You can check the attached screenshot as well.

All the best,
