Display read more only when there's more to read. (Fixed)
I’ve got two small questions:
1. Is there any chance of hiding the “read more”-heading below when there is nothing more to read? <h4 class=“more”> should only be displayed when there is something written in body. (Note that I’m using excerpt as an “teaser”.)
This is my actions under all news.
<div class="actions" id="actions_full">
<h4 class="category"><span class="hidden">Category:</span></h4><p>Category here</p>
<h4 class="more"><txp:permlink><span class="hidden">Les Videre</span></txp:permlink></h4>
</div>
2. How do I display which category the news are posted in?

Case number one could be done with a little PHP-magic:
<txp:php>
$readmore = '<h4 class="more"><a href="'.permlink().'"><span class="hidden">Les Videre</span></a></h4>';
echo ($GLOBALS['thisarticle']['body']) ? $readmore : '';
</txp:php>2. txp:category1 and txp:category2
Cheers!

chh_if_data can also do this.
Code:
<txp:if_individual_article>Posted by <txp:author />, <txp:posted /><txp:chh_if_data><br />
Filed under: <txp:category1 title="1" link="1" /></txp:chh_if_data><txp:chh_if_data>, <txp:category2 title="1" link="1" /></txp:chh_if_data></txp:if_individual_article>The above is from Reid’s Web Writer template.

jstubbs, then we would need the body tag and we don’t want it to the page ;) Thought we could comment it out but…
Well it works those categories, as we can’t know if both are used. In example the dot, or break-tag between them could be outputted ;)
Cheers!

Oh. Looks like I pushed you away a little to sonn, maniqui:
The “if_excerpt” could be very usefull. Hope it works to do “if_body” instead. I’ll try that.
Btw, Gocom. Your php-method dosen’t work. Maybe i’ll have to put it on my default page, but it dosen’t worked out in forms.

Sono Juventino,
No, it works. You’re probably missusing it, as it should be used inside article forms – as should those other tags as you provided. So, it works as it should be.
And no, there isn’t any txp:if_body-tag.
Cheers!

Strange, Gocom. I’ll try again later.
Thanks everyone.
