How to get viewlet by an plone object url

Question

I'm trying to get viewlet belowcontenttitle for an object by its URL. Something like below, but using object URL instead of 'plone'.

id="viewlet-below-content-title" tal:content="structure provider:plone.belowcontenttitle"

Can I do it using restrictedTraverse?

Your best bet is to create a new view for the belowcontenttitle viewlet; template:

<div tal:content="structure provider:plone.belowcontenttitle"/>

registered with:

<browser:page
    for="*"
    name="belowcontenttitle"
    permission="zope2.View"
    template="template_shown_above.pt"
    />

Then you can use that view with a simple traverse:

<div tal:replace="structure context/path/to/other/object/@@belowcontenttitle" />

This looks up the view in the context of the other object; the template is rendered and returned, replacing the div.

Thank you, works perfectly. But I still can not concatenate my paths with 'context/'. I have dynamic paths into a list. – Matheus Pereira Feb 05 '13 at 12:45
I was able to concatenate the path using: `

@MatheusPereira: I was in the process of looking up the `?variable` use in path expressions for you. :-) – Martijn Pieters Feb 05 '13 at 13:43
