Re: URL-only title

Mary,

I agree with the others that this should be a standard tag in the core.
I find this indispensible not only for neat CSS tricks but also when I need to add class hooks for javascript stuff on the fly..

<h2 class=”<txp:url-title />”><txp:title /></h2>
<p class=”<txp:url-title />”>Text that is toggled by clicking on the title.</p>

Up till now I been using TXP globals with PHP like so…

<txp:php>echo $GLOBALS[‘thisarticle’][‘url_title’];</txp:php>

But from now on I will just use the hack propsed by Els

jawtab: Ignore my previous post if you read it, for some reason I was thinking yours was the first post in a separate thread.

Ace: it already was added, to crockery.

If you add this

function url_title($atts)
{
global $thisarticle;
return $thisarticle[‘url_title’];
}
</code>
to taghandlers.php, you’ve got a tag <code><txp:url_title /></code>.
[Edit] You can also make it into a plugin, if you don’t want to have to modify that file every time you upgrade.

This is a really useful hack for me – especially when building custom URLs in sections, but I just tried it in 4.04 for the first time and Els’ warning was well-founded… seems it doesn’t work with this version. Does anyone know how to fix it?

many thanks
Stu

Re: URL-only title

It still works for me in 4.0.4. Make sure you don’t copy the code from my previous post, because the quotes got textiled. Use this:

function url_title($atts)
{
global $thisarticle;
return $thisarticle['url_title'];
}

Re: URL-only title

To all the people like me, finding this thread belatedly, this tag is now official:

<txp:article_url_title />
