EE 2.5.2

Hey guys,

I have one channel:entries tag on the homepage and it’s pulling from multiple channels. I have a custom field in each one that selects whether the content should be a feature on the homepage or not.  Here is the code:

{exp:channel:entries channel="interview|story" limit="2" search:story-is-home-feature="=y" search:interview-is-home-feature="=y" disable="categories|member_data|pagination" dynamic="no"}

Using this code renders nothing as it’s looking for the entry to contain both custom fields, which they are don’t, so it is not finding any entries.

Is there another way of doing this that I’m missing? Would be a huge timesaver if I can get this to work.

Thanks

Hi John-Gordon,

I would suggest doing a conditional in the channel entries tag pair. Kinda like this:

{exp:channel:entries channel="interview|story" limit="2" disable="categories|member_data|pagination" dynamic="no"}
{if story-is-home-feature == "y"}
  {title}
  {body}
{/if}
{if interview-is-home-feature == "y"}
  {title}
  {body}
{/if}
{/exp:channel:entries}

That should be close to what you are after.

Cheers,
