[plugin] [ORPHAN] rss_unlimited_categories - Unltd. Article Categories

Would that be used to differentiate the current category from the others? That would, indeed, be useful.

Yep, thats the idea, to asign a diferent class to the element that represents the current category (useful to style it in a different way)

Is it late and I’m just missing something? I misspoke before, saying that I had the filed_under working correctly. It is still only partially working.

What I have in my article form is:
<code><div id=“cats”><txp:rss_unlimited_categories_filedunder label=“Categories: “ linktosection=“prints” /></div>
</code>

Here is an example page:
http://www.studiohart.net/Prints/peeking-lizard

You will see near the bottom it says:

Categories:
chilis, Lizard, Ristra, Southwestern

So, if you click on “Lizard” you get the url:

http://www.studiohart.net/prints/lizard

Which, is /section/category but nothing is showing up when you click on it.

Am I missing something? I have the admin prefs set to /section/title

HELP!

Thanks.

EDIT/UPDATE: Well, it does seem to work IF the category is in the original 2 dropdown categories, but not if they are selected in the additional categories box. (hope that makes sense)

hallo,
I just upgraded from 0.4 to 0.5 (of the plugin) and see that the tag cloud is now sorted/weighted… is it possible to have the tag cloud not be weighted? that is, could I put it back in alphabetical order, rather than order of most tagged to least tagged?

Dear all,

I read all 11 Pages of this thread and I know, the question I want to ask was asked bofore in various forms. But I just could not fix the problem I have with this plugin. Maybe someone knows, what I have to do?

I use Texpattern version 4.0.3, unlimited_categories version 0.5., URL-scheme /section/id/titel, site is running locally.

I put <code><txp:rss_unlimited_categories_filedunder linktosection=“projektliste” /></code> in my article form to get an output of the selected categories. This works very well.

After I have clicked on one category I’d like to get a list of all articles marked with this cat.

I did this:
1) Create a section called “projektliste”
2) Create a site-template related to the section “projektliste”
3) Put in this template <code><txp:rss_unlimited_categories_article_list form=“projektliste” /></code>
4) Create a form called “projektliste” with this content <code><txp:title /></code>

The link, which is created after clicking is like this: http://v.local/projekte/projektliste/dreidimensional

I expected to see a list of article-titles, but unfortunally I see nothing…
I’m very new with textpattern, so I’m sure it must be something simple what I did wrong.

Do you have any ideas or suggestions for me? Thanks a lot!

Yours sincerly, Alfette

starzabove & alfette – Make sure the page you expect to see the article listing on has the <txp:rss_unlimited_categories_article_list /> tag as you say you do alfette.

But if the section your articles are posted in is not the current section, you’ll have to specify the section in the tag. So if you post articles to the section called article, but you have the tag on a page in the section called archive, your tag should look like this: <txp:rss_unlimited_categories_article_list section="article" />

Alicson – That was an unitended side effect. I updated the 0.5 download so that the cloud will be sorted by name unless a limit is specified.

Thanks a lot, wilshire.
This solved my problem. Everything works fine and I am a happy girl now.
Bye, Alfette

First of all, this plugin looks excellent; it is just what I was looking for to do some upcoming txp projects — thanks Rob.

I have read through the thread but haven’t found or have missed a solution for the following, though it seems to have come up before:

in that form doesn’t output articles on the front page, though the tag cloud is working.

If I specify a section:

It shows the articles from that section on the front page. But if I use section=“article” or section=”*” it shows nothing.

If I go to the URL for the article section it shows the entries there:

www.example.com/article

In other words it isn’t showing the default article section at the top level and I would like to understand why.

Using rss_unlimited_categories v0.5 and Textpattern · 4.0.3
I replaced article-col-2 with articleside.
It is a fresh txp installation in a TLD at textdrive.
The article section is set to use the front page and uses the default page template.
The permalink mode is /section/title, though I have tried others.
I am using categories created after the plugin was installed, the entries were made afterwards as well.

What am I overlooking/doing wrong here?

Thanks…
robert

Okay, so following up:

alexandra wrote:

eco you are supposed to put this tag:<txp: rss_unlimited_categories_article_list />@ somewhere in your page template. Replacing the article tag is wrong.

The tags explanation:

rss_unlimited_categories_article_list – Lists articles by category. This is a replacement for the standard Textpattern article list tags.

…so I guess they should be used together.
The following seems to work the way I expected:

Now looking forward to getting into it.

Dear all,
I’d like to show a list of articles using the following tag:

<code><txp:rss_unlimited_categories_article_list section=”*” form=“myform” /></code>
in my site template is not working. If I replace “*” (to show articles of all sections) with a specific section like “mysection”, it works fine.

Does anybody know this problem? Or am I doing somethin stupid?

Thanks a lot, Alfette

robertbruce · 2006-09-02 18:05:24

Hi Alfette,

section=”*” doesn’t work in my fresh txp installation either. In fact, for my front page where I want all sections to be visible, I am now only using the txp:article tag. Though I imagine I’ll reach some limitation with that at some point.

For the other sections I am using the rss_unlimited_categories_article_list tag with section=“sectionname”.

And happily many other things are falling into place now.

robert
