How to access FeaturedPost widget data from outside the widget?

[RahetBaal]

Hi, I need to check if FeaturedPost widget is enabled, AND then check if FeaturedPost id is equal to current retrieved post on homepage loop then the loop will ignores it.

Something like this:

<b:with value='data:widgets.FeaturedPost' var='fp'>
​<b:loop index='item' values='data:posts' var='post'>
<b:if cond='data:item.id != data:fp.id'>
</b:with>
<b:eval expr='data:item.id'/>
</b:if>
</b:loop>

OR:

​<b:loop index='item' values='data:posts' var='post'>
<b:if cond='data:item.id != data:widgets.FeaturedPost.id'>
<b:eval expr='data:item.id'/>
</b:if>
</b:loop>

Hi,

Use this data : data:widgets.featuredPost.first.postId

<b:loop values='data:view.isHomepage ? data:posts where (p => data:widgets.featuredPost.first.postId == p.id) : data:posts' var='post'>

</b:loop>

Best :)

Hi Soraya,

First of all i want to thank you very much for your efforts and time :) 

and i really respect you and like your tutorials on your blog bloggercode-blogconnexion .

Second. I want to tell you that i tried your suggested code but it not works for me :(

i wonder that 

<data:widgets.FeaturedPost.title/>

works like a charm and returns the string of widget title. 

but 

<data:widgets.FeaturedPost.posts/>

not works and returns error

 <!--Can't find substitution for tag [widgets.FeaturedPost.posts]-->

I also tried to use .first 

<data:widgets.FeaturedPost.first.posts/>

but it returns the same error.

i wonder where is the problem ?! :)

To find and compare 2 posts, you must use the ID : data:widgets.FeaturedPost.first.postId == another ID
