Re: Linking to common custom tag

Damn, am I blind! Of course that won’t work because <txp:asy_wondertag> has to be wrapped around one single tag or around the opening and closing tag of a container tag. Because the closing </txp:permlink> is outside the plugin’s tag it doesn’t work. Moving it inside won’t work either because then you have two different tags inside…

And right now a solution comes to my mind that is so incredibly simple that I wonder if it would really work (and if it does, why the * didn’t I think of it before…). What happens if you change your form ‘creator_name’ to this:

<txp:permlink><txp:title /></txp:permlink>

and form ‘link_nav_movie’ to this:

<li>
<a href="<txp:permlink />" title="<txp:title />" class="movietitle"><txp:title /></a> by
<txp:asy_wondertag>
   <txp:article_custom id="<txp:custom_field name="CreatorArticleID" />" form="creator_name" />
</txp:asy_wondertag>
</li>

What happens is that it totally works. Wow, you’re right, I should have thought of that too. Oh well! Thanks so much!

Re: Linking to common custom tag

I must say that I’m tempted to delete all posts between your first question and my last answer ;) I honestly don’t know why I didn’t think of that sooner! But I’m glad we worked it out eventually :)
