Excerpt - I don´t get it ?!
I don´t get it, in my HTML I have:
<txp:article form=“default” listform=“default” />
For the text, which works fine.
But I´m trying to create an extra column for some additional info, for this I use:
<txp:article form=“excerpt” listform=“default” />
With a form called “excerpt”, that looks like this:
<txp:excerpt />
But it doesn´t work, the extra culumn just show what I have on normal text, not what I wrote in the excerpt field.
What am I missing here ?
Thanks

Re: Excerpt - I don´t get it ?!
Then you must be in an article list, because in your second tag you still say listform="default".
form is the form that will be used when viewing an individual article, listform the one for article lists.

Re: Excerpt - I don´t get it ?!
From the FAQ:
With either of the above methods, you can use the <txp:if_excerpt> tag inside the article form to lay out articles with and without excerpts differently. For example, to apply separate CSS classes to the excerpt and body

i’d personally love to see an example of a textpattern template that has an article list with excerpts featuring one css style and the full article features another style
