Exclude current post in slide if on that current post

[wowflak]

I have built a looper within a looper and am trying to hide the current post in the slider. Have tried several different ways mainly using WP query string with no luck. I am sure it is related to the fact that I have 2 different loopers running. Please see secure note.
Thanks

Exclude current post from recent posts looper?

Hello Cheshire, Regretfully, there is no option to exclude the current post but you can achieve this by using a Looper. For that, you need to set the Looper Provider as Query String and then you need to use this query in the Wp-query box. [Test-Page-Builder-Pro - 2022-06-01T003159.655] post_type=post&posts_per_page=-1&post_status=publish&ignore_sticky_posts=1&order=DESC&post__not_in%5B0%5D={{dc:post:id}} Hope it helps Thanks

Excluding current post title

Hi, I’m trying to achieve something on a layout template page assigned to a single post type (town) using looper/consumer. The town post type contains several posts with every post’s title being the town name. The goal: display a list of all the post titles (as buttons) on every town page excluding the current post I was able to achieve the following: Created a provider with the Query Builder set to “Town” as post with a count of 20 Created a button (consumer) Button’s URL was is set to {…

Hope it helps.

Thanks, I have looked at all those and understand how they work. However my situation is a bit different. I have a post which is a Record Album and that is in a Toolset relationship with the CPT Artist. This all works fine. Now what I want to do is list other albums by the same artist below the currently viewed album. I achieve that by creating a looper inside of a looper.

First looks like this:
post_type=artist&posts_per_page=-1&toolset_relationships%5B0%5D%5Brole%5D=parent&toolset_relationships%5B0%5D%5Brelated_to%5D={{dc:post:id}}&toolset_relationships%5B0%5D%5Brelationship%5D%5B0%5D=artist&toolset_relationships%5B0%5D%5Brelationship%5D%5B1%5D=concord-albums

That pulls the artist that is related to the currently viewed album.

Then I add this second looper inside that:
post_type=concord-albums&posts_per_page=-1&toolset_relationships%5B0%5D%5Brole%5D=child&toolset_relationships%5B0%5D%5Brelated_to%5D={{dc:post:id}}&toolset_relationships%5B0%5D%5Brelationship%5D%5B0%5D=artist&toolset_relationships%5B0%5D%5Brelationship%5D%5B1%5D=concord-albums

This pulls the related albums and that is great. Now however I want to exclude the current album being viewed from the related albums collection. I cannot figure out how to do that because if I add the “not in” code to end of second loop it does not know what the currently viewed post is. It is looking at the parent “artist” post. And I cannot add the “not in” code to first looper because it is pulling the parent out of the post to setup the second looper.

Does this make sense?

Hi @wowflak,

Do you want to exclude the current post from the 2nd Looper Provider? In that case, you need to create a custom Looper Provider. I would suggest you go through the following article on how to use the Custom Looper and then check the following thread which may help you on this.

HAHA Ok, so this graphic designer is hanging on as best he can here… Thank you so much! Here is what I’ve got so far, but it’s not returning anything on the front end just yet. [SharedScreenshot] You can see an example of the live page at: https://brewsky.nueramarketing.com/product-category/beer/ I’ll admit that I didn’t understand much from your last bit of instruction though, so forgive me if I’m omitting any critical details. Very much appreciated!

How to solve the BUG of Menu Content Scrolling - Button Navigation BUG

Is there ant way in order to fix the following BUG? Could be a solution using the new slider element with sile buttons? Is it possible to use WP MENU as Looper Provider? Is there any way in order to highlight Active Link? Thank You Daniele

Yes, exactly I want to exclude the current post from the second looper. I apologize my php skills are not great. Can you help expand how I can make this work with the custom solution?

Thanks
