The function should look like this:

function rss_admin_catlist_save($event, $step) {
		if (!gps('save') && !gps('publish')) return;

		$ID = rss_getID();

		if ($ID) {
			safe_delete("textpattern_category","article_id='$ID'");

			$incats = ps('Cats');
			if (!empty($incats)) {
				foreach($incats as $val ) {
					echo 'Insert!! (unh!!)<br>';
					safe_insert("textpattern_category",
						"category_id = '$val',
						article_id='$ID'"
					);
				}
			}
		}
	}

It looks like rss_unlimited_categories_article_list doesn’t support the customfieldname=“value” attribute like txp:article does. I have articles listed by category but need to be able to filter out by custom field value via user html form post. Any ideas?

Thanks.

sorry to post off the current topic of conversation but i have a feature request/inquiry. would it be possible to extend the “Articles” tab checkboxes and “with selected” functionality to add categories to articles? i have a project where a number of posts are very frequently reused to create custom pages and it would streamline the process immensely if the user didn’t have to go into individual posts and add categories each time. would be a great way for organizing old posts also. any hints/help?

Hi,
Have been browsing this thread desperately to find a solution for the following problem, any help appreciated:
I would like to create a select box similar to the one on admin site on the article pages where one can select multiple categories and do a search for articles that match all of the selected ones. Anyone got this to work? I have seen a few people asking for a similar feature but I have not found any solution,
great plugin anyways!

I’m looking for a way to use rss_unlimited_categories and display the category cloud in a random or alphabetical order. Does anyone know how to modify the plug-in to do so?

cpk · 2007-11-10 02:45:48

Does the rss_unlimited_categories_article_list tag support the ability to search by a custom article field? I cannot seem to get it to sort this way. If it does not, has anyone modified it to do so withany succcess?

Thanks,

Plugin in my txp installation (4.0.4) with gbp_admin_library, l10n, rss_admin_db_manager, snt_weather_0.2, upm_date_archive, zem_contact_lang-mlp plugins show articles only from section, which have named by linktosection=”“, nothing else, though number of all articles in every category is correct in list and in cloud as well.

Excuse me for poor english.

Please disregard this post. I have solved it.

I failed to extend the sort to sub categories (children) as Rob’s documentation clearly states to do by so by using the usechildren=“1” attribute.

I was going to delete my post but thought that others who run into similar problems might benefit from the solution, a good ole RTFM reminder and a share of my humble pie.

and now back to our original programming…

Hmm…

I’v made a clean installaion of Textpattern 4.0.5, but nothing changed. Categories take from old selection, not from new one, and are printed only in one section from one section. ((((((

Good idea, but… it is not work fine (((

Extremely useful plugin. I’m looking at using <txp:breadcrumb>. Any thoughts on how to get its links to work with this plugin, or is there another breadcrumbing alternative that would be better suited?

Right now, it outputs something like this on my category list pages:

Home > Section1 > Parent Category1 > Category2

Which is great, except the last two link to /category/parent-category1/ and /category/category2/, respectively, when I need them to link to /section1/parent-category1/ and /section1/category2/.

Can I second this request? Adding the multiple select list to the “Articles” tab would be a huge help to me. I’m looking to build a simple site listing “guest ales” that are in stock in different bars each week. They come in and out of stock each week – with the categories used for the bars, It would make it much easier to be able to select and deselect which bars are currently stocking the ales (entered as articles). The sheer number of ales and bars make it difficult to envisage individually editing each article.

Many thanks!

with rss_uc_article_list, is there a way to sort by status so that ‘sticky’ articles appear at the top and ‘live’ articles appear below them? i’m trying to imitate the effects of:

<txp:article status="sticky"/>
<txp:article status="live"/>

but with rss_uc’s unlimited categories. i would greatly appreciate any tips, even if they involve a hard-coded change to the plug-in itself.
