Hi Guys,
I am trying to add today's date into the FilterExpression for the news item control. is there any parameter that does that?
My problem is that I have two news item lists and a news archive control on the same page, I want the newsarchive controls only one of the news lists and need the other one to show the latest news, whilst for now it is effecting both when someone clicks on the newsarchive.
Many Thanks

Hi Ahmed Malik,
The parameter is #now. If you have two controls on the same page, both will be affected when filtering is performed. You can create a custom class that inherits from NewsView and override CreateChildControls where you can check clear the QueryString parameter and the control will not be filtered. Another option would be to create a custom control that displays your news items as a list using the same template - ListPageMaster that is used by the default NewsView control.
All the best,
