Hi HaiDong,

 

 

1. rootPath is the current node level. The code is

 

<#if nodeType == 'board'>
	 <#assign rootType = "blogs">
	 <#assign rootPath = "blogs/id/" + rootNodeId/>
	<#else>
	 <#assign rootType = "categories">
	 <#assign rootPath = "categories/id/" + rootNodeId/>
	</#if>

 2. latestFeatured(coredNode.id) will return featured topic ID in "init" format.

 

3. There is no CSS blocking the code.

 

Is there a way to convert the int value into string value? and then i can compare "featuredID !=msg.id" Currently, i got error said only compare string to string or int to int  error.

 

Thank you,

Cheers,

Qing

Hi qinglau ,

 

oh, your latestFeatured(coredNode.id) returns a integer? if like that, 

 

you can do it either 

 <#if msg.id!=featuredID?string>

 or 

<#if msg.id?int!=featuredID>
