Querying a single forum

To query a single forum, you must perform the following:

  1. Get an instance of the manager.
    Get an instance of the ForumsManager object.
  2. Get the specified forum.
    To get the specified forum, you can either call the GetForum method of the manager and pass the ID of the forum as an argument, or call the GetForums method of the manager and filter the collection by the ID or the name of the forum.

Here is a code example of using the GetForum method:
 

NOTE: If the forum does not exist, the method throws an exception of type Telerik.Sitefinity.SitefinityExceptions.ItemNotFoundException.

Here is a code example of using the GetForums method:

 

Querying all forums from a group

To query all forums from a forum, you must perform the following:

  1. Get an instance of the manager.
    Get an instance of the ForumsManager object.
  2. Get the forums.
    To get the forums, you must call the GetForums method of the manager and filter the query by the ID of the group.

Here is a code example:

 

NOTE: Because it is possible to have a forum without a group, you must make a check whether the Group property is null.

Querying all forums

To query all forums, you must perform the following:

  1. Get an instance of the manager.
    Get an instance of the ForumsManager object.
  2. Get the forums.
