“…where is this plugin’s preference…”

Under “extensions”?

excellent plugin! Thanks! Its already implemented on ~~textgarden.org~~ (which is still under construction) In action here: ~~http://textgarden.org/category/blog~~

Any chance of a tag that can output articles based on download count? Something like the standard txp:article tag , just with an option to sort by number of downloads.

Its the last thing I need for ~~Textgarden.org~~.

Yes, any chance ? ô_Ô (oh pleeeeeeease !)
It’s the only missing thing in plugin (I love it). I suppose it’s hard to do but that would be fantastic.

Hm. It’d be tricky, since I wouldn’t want to interfere with the article tag in any other way. Still, I’ll see if I can do it.

The site is looking nice, Sivert.

It could be a modification to the chh_article_custom plugin.

Thanks! :)

Well, that plugin is an extended version of the older versions of several built-in tags. I’d like to avoid making copies of many tags unless they were really really really (really!) needed. ;)

Can you guys show me the pages and forms you are currently using to make your lists? It may make it a lot easier for me to determine if and how I can do this, so I can know what this would me used for most often. I can see why you’d want this, I’d just like to make the implementation a lot clearer in my mind.

If your forms/pages are really long (or you don’t want everyone see and/or copy your stuff), don’t paste them here. Email them to me (either right in the email or attached as a file or files). I’d really appreciate it.

sivni · 2005-07-08 16:28:21

List forms? Sure. Excerpts following. Do you need all the code? Its just the standard stuff really.

Page code
<code><txp:if_article_list>
<txp:article form=“Layout_Preview” limit=“20” />
</txp:if_article_list></code>

Layout_Preview form
<code><txp:if_custom_field name=“Download file id”>
<txp:upm_article_file_list form=“Layout_Download” /><br/>
</txp:if_custom_field></code>

Layout_Download form
<code><txp:file_download_link>Download</txp:file_download_link> (<txp:file_download_downloads />)</code>

Okay, I didn’t want to ‘copy’ the article tag, but it looks like I’d need to. I tried one other method I could think of, but it doesn’t really work well. I thought of another, but that won’t work either, since it would be more complicated than just making a version of the article tag.

sivni · 2005-07-10 19:23:23

A copy of the article tag isn’t bad, it just needs frequent updates if you expect it to behave exactly like the original. Or so I imagine. Perhaps it isn’t that big of a deal… :)

Mary · 2005-07-10 23:58:48

That would be it exactly. But that’s all right, it won’t be a humongous job.
