Is there a way to hide blog entries from the Latest Pages Widget? How/where would I go about doing this, if it is possible? Thanks!

Hi just replace the LatestPagesWidget.php's content with the following and see.

<?php

class LatestPagesWidget extends Widget {
	static $db = array();

	static $title = "Latest Pages";
	static $cmsTitle = "Latest Pages";
	static $description = "Shows the 5 latest pages to be added/edited on the site";

	function LatestPages() {
		$pages = DataObject::get('SiteTree', 'ClassName != `BlogEntry`', '`LastEdited` DESC', '', 5);
		$return = new DataObjectSet();
		foreach($pages as $page) {
			$versioned = Versioned::get_version("SiteTree", $page->ID, $page->Version);
			$author = Member::get_one("Member", "ID = " . (int)$versioned->AuthorID);
			$return->push(new ArrayData(array('Page' => $versioned, 'Author' => $author)));
		}
		return $return;
	}
}

I tried it (finally) but when I loaded the website I got this error:

Error

The website server has not been able to respond to your request

Your suggestion is the only thing I changed, and I flushed the cache just to be sure since that often saves me. Not this time. :( What should I try next?

try with this code


<?php

class LatestPagesWidget extends Widget {
	static $db = array();
	
	static $title = "Latest Pages";
	static $cmsTitle = "Latest Pages";
	static $description = "Shows the 5 latest pages to be added/edited on the site";
	
	function LatestPages() {
		$pages = DataObject::get('SiteTree', 'ClassName != "BlogEntry" AND ClassName != "BlogHolder"', '`LastEdited` DESC', '', 5);
		$return = new DataObjectSet();
		foreach($pages as $page) {
			$versioned = Versioned::get_version("SiteTree", $page->ID, $page->Version);
			$author = Member::get_one("Member", "ID = " . (int)$versioned->AuthorID);
			$return->push(new ArrayData(array('Page' => $versioned, 'Author' => $author)));
		}
		return $return;
	}
}
