    Hi,

    For a widget i’m trying to find out how i can get the ID tag of the most newest post.

    Now it’s like this: get_post($post->ID);

    But i selects all the posts and i just want to have the newest post.

    There might be a more elegant way of doing it but…

    <?php
$last = wp_get_recent_posts( '1');
$last_id = $last['0']['ID'];
?>

    esmi, is there a way to do this for each author and then sort the authors by their latest post?
