archive for permlinked articles on page that also lists nonpermlinked

Okay that title probably doesn’t make very much since. Heres the problem:

My site section Workshops, has 3 total txp:article lists.

1st there is a txp:article status=“sticky” limit=“1” so that I can list workshop registration instructions. This is not perm linked. I could make this static, but I want it to be easily updated by other people, and i dont want them hacking at my code.

Below that there is another txp:article list that lists live articles (which happen to be my workshops) that are going to take place at future dates, so I have time=“future”. There are no permlinks to these either, the information is simply displayed and sorted by workshop title. There don’t need to be any permlinks.

And last but not least, the problem, I have a 3rd article list in the right navigation bar. It is txp:article time=“past” limit=“1”, and it displays the most recent workshop that has past with only a thumbnail, and a title that is permlinked.

When the permlink is clicked I want it display the article in full, body and all, but I want it to be in an archive page, so one can view all of the time=“past” workshop articles.

How do I organize this? I dont want to make another section.

Re: archive for permlinked articles on page that also lists nonpermlinked

Actually lets forget the archive for now.

Okay, I have the 3 articles lists.

the first 2 are in the center “content” div.

There is the one that is limited to one and is sticky.

Then there is one that lists future events.

And then in a seperate div floated to the right, I have an article list of past articles. I have its article tag form set to full detail and listform set to just a title and a picture. If you click on a future article, then the past article also expands giving the full details inside of the right floated div, which isnt good.

If you click on the permlink of the floated right past article, then it displays in the content area like the future articles, except it uses future articles form. And it displays fully expanded using its own form in the right div. I kind of understand why, because the article list is in the div. But How can I get it to display using its own form in the content area, and still be in the right div?
