The get_syndication_feed_id() template tag can be used in templates to retrieve the numerical ID of the WordPress Link object representing the source that a syndicated post was syndicated from. The value can then be stored and passed along to WordPress API functions, such as get_bookmark().

Sample

<?php if (is_syndicated()) : ?>
    <?php
        $linkId = get_syndication_feed_id();
        $link = get_bookmark($linkId);
    ?>
    The name of this post's source is: <?php print $link->link_name; ?>
<?php endif; ?>

This code snippet, when used in the WordPress Post Loop, will display a short notice on all syndicated posts, including the name of the source from which the the post was syndicated.

Declaration

function get_syndication_feed_id ($id = NULL)

Parameters

$id is an OPTIONAL parameter. If specified, it should contain the numerical ID of the post for which to get the syndication source ID. If $id is NULL, or not specified, FeedWordPress will return the numerical ID for the source of the current post in the Post Loop.

Returns an integer containing the numerical ID of a WordPress Link object if FeedWordPress can identify the source from which this item was syndicated; NULL if the post was not syndicated.
