I can't get my comment system to work.

Hey guys, I am new to Textpattern. I got it up and running but I am hitting a few speed bumps along the way. I am running the TXP Rin template and I can’t seem to get the comment function to work.

When I click on the comment link I get this error:

“Tag error: -> Textpattern Notice: Page template archive does not contain a txp:article tag on line 474”

Anyone know what that might mean? lol

here is the URL for my blog.

If anyone could help me out, i would appreciated

Re: I can't get my comment system to work.

You possibly use only <txp:article_custom /> in your pages instead of <txp:article />. You have to add there <txp:article />, without it you can’t view single articles nor make pagination to work.

See more: txp:article_custom and txp:article

Also you should turn your site’s status to Live on preferences, as now it’s on Testing – or when the site is finished.

Re: I can't get my comment system to work.

ok, I changed <txp:article /> to <txp:article_custom /> and nothing changed. Then I changed my site from “texting” to “live” and I think that may have had something to do with it because the error went away. However, the comment link just takes me to a blank page. Anyone else running the TXP: Rin template without any problems?

Not <txp:article_custom /> – use <txp:article />. As the error says, you don’t have <txp:article /> tag in your pagetemplate. It could be there is wrong pagetemplate used for specific section or some conditional tags eating <txp:article /> away :)

It’s just a notice, not an error. And as you noticed, it goes away when the site is set to ‘Live’ :) It’s probably just the RIN template’s setup to have only an article_custom tag on the archive template. And since it’s one of Stuart’s, you can assume the setup is right :)
So I think you changed the article tag on the default template, just undo it.

Re: I can't get my comment system to work.

The archive page template in TXP Rin is set to use the <txp:article /> tag for the “article” section so either something has been changed or this is a new section which needs adding to the archive page template in the format <txp:if_section name="newSectionName"></txp:if_section> or it could be added to the existing code block as a comma-separated list like <txp:if_section name="article,newSectionName">. Also it would need to be told to use the archive page template in the “Sections” tab.
