Issue with repeaters and default queries

I don't know if this is intended or not but when using a repeater without a custom query the default "live" query chose (selectversions) appends a where clause checking to see if the documents to be listed are within the same treenode as the document being displayed. This overwrites the use of the 'Path' option of the repeater webpart making it useless and forcing us to either place the content to be displayed under the current document or write a cutom query to display it.

For example...

I have a "Shared Content" folder that contains Press Releases. This folder sits at level 1 of the site. I have a News section that has a Press Releases page (/News/Press Release/). I place a repeater on the Press Release page and point the path option to "/Shared-Content/Press-Releases/%". Because the selectversions query automatically appends "AND (NodeAliasPath LIKE N'/News/Press-Releases')" the Press Release will never be displayed. I have no choice but to put the Press Release under that same tree node or write a custom query.

Was this intentional?

RE:Issue with repeaters and default queries

Could you please tell me what is your Kentico version? I tried to reproduce the issue on my PC but everything works fine. Maybe there are some other settings that are causing this problem.

Could you please send us an e-mail to support@kentico.com with the site export package? Thank you.
