get collection featured products - magento

Question

Im trying to retrieve all my products with attributed of featured of yes (1), but int working my code. Am i calling the wrong way? Whats wrong with my code.
I checked some similiar issues but most of them have basically the same approach.
<?php
$_products = $this->getProductCollection();
$_products->addAttributeToSelect('featured',1);
?>
<?php if ($_products && $_products->getSize()): ?>
<div class="widget widget-new-products">
<div class="widget-title">
<h2><?php echo $this->__('Produtos em Destaque') ?></h2>
</div>
<div class="widget-products">
<?php echo $this->getPagerHtml() ?>
<?php $_columnCount = $this->getColumnCount(); ?>
<?php $i=0; ?>
<ul class="products-grid products-grid--max-<?php echo $_columnCount; ?>-col-widget">
<?php foreach ($_products->getItems() as $_product): ?>
<li class="item<?php if(($i-1)%$_columnCount==0): ?> first<?php elseif($i%$_columnCount==0): ?> last<?php endif; ?>">
<?php $_imgSize = 210; ?>
<?php // The image size is locked at 210 for this for display purposes. CSS has it at 75% which should equate to 278px?>
<a href="<?php echo $_product->getProductUrl() ?>" title="<?php echo $this->stripTags($_product->getName(), null, true) ?>" class="product-image">
<img src="<?php echo $this->helper('catalog/image')->init($_product, 'small_image')->resize(210) ?>" alt="<?php echo $this->stripTags($_product->getName(), null, true) ?>" />
</a>
<div class="product-info">
<h3 class="product-name"><?php echo $this->helper('catalog/output')->productAttribute($_product, $_product->getName() , 'name') ?></h3>
<?php echo $this->getPriceHtml($_product, true, '-widget-new-grid') ?>
<?php echo $this->getReviewsSummaryHtml($_product, 'short') ?>
<div class="actions">
<?php if ($_product->isSaleable()): ?>
<button type="button" title="<?php echo Mage::helper('core')->quoteEscape($this->__('Add to Cart')) ?>" class="button btn-cart" onclick="setLocation('<?php echo $this->getAddToCartUrl($_product) ?>')"><span><span><?php echo $this->__('Add to Cart') ?></span></span></button>
<?php else: ?>
<p class="availability out-of-stock"><span><?php echo $this->__('Out of stock') ?></span></p>
<?php endif; ?>
<ul class="add-to-links">
<?php if ($this->helper('wishlist')->isAllow()) : ?>
<li><?php echo $this->__('Add to Wishlist') ?></li>
<?php endif; ?>
<?php if($_compareUrl=$this->getAddToCompareUrl($_product)): ?>
<li><span class="separator">|</span> <?php echo $this->__('Add to Compare') ?></li>
<?php endif; ?>
</ul>
</div>
</div>
</li>
<?php endforeach; ?>
</ul>
</div>
</div>
<?php endif; ?>

Use the following to retrieve all all your products with yes attribute:
<?php
$_categoryId = $this->getCategoryId(); // Category ID
$_productCollection = Mage::getModel('catalog/category')->load($_categoryId)
->getProductCollection()
->addAttributeToSelect('*')
->addAttributeToFilter('status', 1)
->addAttributeToFilter('visibility', 4)
->setOrder('price', 'ASC');
?>
<div class="featured-product">
<?php foreach ($_productCollection as $_product): ?>
<div class="item">
<a class="product-image" href="<?php echo $_product->getProductUrl() ?>">
<img src="<?php echo $this->helper('catalog/image')->init($_product, 'small_image')->resize(200); ?>" alt="<?php echo $this->htmlEscape($this->getImageLabel($_product, 'small_image')) ?>" />
</a>
<a class="product-name" href="<?php echo $_product->getProductUrl() ?>"><?php echo $this->htmlEscape($_product->getName()) ?></a>
<?php echo $this->getPriceHtml($_product, true) ?>
</div>
<?php endforeach ?>
</div>
