I have a big scroller in the middle of my front page that shows the latest 3 news entries whose "Front Page Feature" field is set to "Yes". Somewhere else, smaller, I display the next upcoming event whose "Front Page Feature" is set to "Yes". I'd like to combine the 3 newest added news -and- events into that big scroller.
The code to populate the scroller is:
{exp:channel:entries channel="news" search:front_page_feature="Yes" dynamic="no" limit="3" orderby="date" sort="desc"}
I wish I could set channel="news|events", but they use different fieldsets. So I wish I could do channel="news|events" and
search:front_page_feature="Yes" search:events_front_page_feature="Yes"
But "AND" is only allowed with multiple search terms, no OR. I don't know if there will be an easy way to do this.
Any ideas?
status
instead ofcustom fields
?status
to define front page items isn't suitable, you might use a category instead.
