Archiving

I tried using the search form but couldn’t find much relevant that I could understand…

I’m trying to get to grips with organising all my data in text pattern. I have a homepage with News articles on it with links to “reviews” articles to the right. How can I have a page that lists all the “reviews” as the main content on the page, like an archive.

My site is: http://www.likewings.com/tombob

thanks alot

Re: Archiving

You need a section called “archive” (or whatever). There is an “archive” page with the default install of TXP. You should find that http://www.likewings.com/tombob/index.php?s=archive gets you to the default archive page. If you deleted the default archive page from your TXP install you can get a copy from the TextBook

You can then customise the “archive” page to your design. For example I am using the following code in my “archive” page:

<code>
<div id=“content”>
<txp:article_custom form=“dg-archive-list” />
</div>

</code>

and my form “dg-archive-list”

<code>
<txp:permlink><txp:title /> : <txp:posted /></txp:permlink>
<txp:excerpt />

</code>

Does that give you a clue?
