Hi all!

I want to show the 3 newest entries from a BUNCH of weblogs (I’ll have about 40 when I’m done).

This would show the 3 newest entries from weblogs 1 2 3 and 4…but is there a way do it like this?

TIA,

Bill

I haven’t tried it, but have you tried just leaving off weblog=”**”?

Your code above is a bit off, btw, it’d be weblog=“1|2|3|4” etc.  Just for clarification. =)

as a clarification, I haven’t tried that - so it may not work; I can’t really try it in my setup so. =)

If you don’t specify the “weblog=” parameter at all then EE will automatically pull entries from all of your weblogs.

hmmm….

for some reason this doesn’t seem to be working.  As a test, I just tried this:

But only 1 title entry from 1 weblog is displayed…the url to the test is here .

You can poke around other parts of the site, and see that all other entries seem to be available and working…

...any suggestions?

That test URL looks like it’s indicating a specific Entry ID in the URL.  Therefore, you’ll only get that single entry returned, which is what should happen (just like if you were looking at a comment page).

To test your Template correctly, you need to view it without any Entry ID or URL Title information in the URL.

@bmackenty

{exp:weblog:entries weblog_id=“1 2 3 4” orderby=“date” sort=“desc” limit=“3”}

Try using just using just weblog as the parameter. That might also help.

That syntax is incorrect, MF.  If you want to specify multiple weblogs, then you need to separate each Weblog ID with a pipe character:

You are correct, however, that the parameter is “weblog” and not “weblog_id”.

I swear I said that in the second message in this thread…. *sighs desolately*

Sorry

ok…

...I’m still unable to figure this out.   

As a matter of course, the template name was 1, so I’m not sure it was directly referencing a single entry.  I’ve renamed it (you can see it here ).

I’m still using the same code:

well…

...wierd.

When I use the template name test, it doesn’t work…but when I use another template name (test2) it works the way I want it to.  You can see the (ugly) results of this here.

Thank you for your help!

Warmly,

Bill

*Bill looks incredibly embarassed*

I had an entry with a title of “test”.  when I tried to use a template named test it called the entry, not the template.  *sigh*

Sorry for taking your time with this….

Not a problem. It’s the simple mistakes that are the hardest to figure out. Trust me, we’ve all been there.
