list of recent articles WITH categories
Is there anyone to make a list of the 5 most recent articles and display the section or categories under each article title.
For example:
RECENT ARTICLES:
1. My Cat Smells
Categories: My Cat, Things that Smell
2. I Got a New Cat
Categories: My Cat, Me
3. I Smell
Categories: Me, Things that Smell
etc….

Re: list of recent articles WITH categories
Something like this:
<code>
<ol>
<txp:article limit=“5” listform=“recent_articles” />
</ol>
</code>
Form ‘recent_articles’:
<code>
<li><txp:permlink><txp:title /></txp:permlink><br />
Categories: <txp:category1 title=“1” /> <txp:category2 title=“1” /></li>
</code>
Note that txp:article will only output articles in the current section, or, if on the frontpage, articles in sections that are set to be displayed on the frontpage. If you need it in another context you’d better use txp:article_custom.

Eww – stinky cats.
You might want to use chh_if_data if you don’t want to display empty cat when article has no cats.
That plugin has many other nice uses aswell.
