display posts per category
(1)
I have an article : ‘article 1 voor sectie articles’
it has categories ‘love’ and ‘peace’
when you hit the link to the categorie – only the title is displayed
this is also with the [<txp:category_list categories=“love, peace” label=“categories” break=“br”/>]
which I have added in the menu on the left
please go see http://texttest.venkatesaya.com/
I would like to have it like in
http://thebombsite.com/jat/boyish/
when you hit one of the categories in the menu on the right – not only the title, but also the whole post is displayed
I am new to this – and I have the feeling that my penny is starting to drop
I mean, if I understand how this is done, I will also be able to build other constructions
do I have to change a form? which one?
do I have to change (on the default template) in the following lines
<txp:if_category>
<txp:category title=“1” /> ***
<div class=“hfeed”>
<txp:article form=“article_listing” limit=“5” />
or on some other line?
when I add [x] under line *** , it is displayed (you’ll see it)
when I add <txp:article /> on the same line, nothing is displayed
(2)
how is the [keep reading] link done on the txp ‘boyish’ http://thebombsite.com/jat/boyish/

Re: display posts per category
A category list is just another article list. So the output is controlled by the article form in use by whatever tag is displaying article lists on that page, typically <txp:article />. That article form is where you can tailor the output.
In your case it is the form called article_listing. Add <txp:body /> to that form (or, if you are using article_listing for something else, create a new form and change your page).

Re: display posts per category
I added <txp:body /> on different locations – it does NOT work
btw I did this before I posted this
“create a new form and change your page” – that is probably the solution
but I am too new at this txp – and yet I feel I am close to understanding it
PLEASE HELP ME SO THAT I CAN UNDERSTAND HOW TXP WORKS
hopefully I will find the answers in your book, when it is delivered from amazon
this is my form ARTICLE LISTING
<txp:if_first_article><ul class=“directory”></txp:if_first_article>
<li><span class=“entry-title”><txp:permlink>
<txp:title />
</txp:permlink></span> · <span class=“published”><txp:posted format=”%Y-%m-%d” /></span></li>
<txp:if_last_article></ul>
</txp:if_last_article>
this is my DEFAULT form
<txp:if_individual_article>
<h1 class=“entry-title”><txp:permlink><txp:title /></txp:permlink></h1>
<txp:else />
<h3 class=“entry-title”><txp:permlink><txp:title /></txp:permlink></h3>
</txp:if_individual_article>
<p class=“published”> <txp:posted /></p>
<div class=“entry-content”>
<txp:body />
</div>
<address class=“vcard author”> <span class=“fn”><txp:author /></span></address>
<p class=“tags”><txp:category1 title=“1” link=“1” />, <txp:category2 title=“1” link=“1” /></p>
<txp:comments_invite wraptag=“p” />

OK, first thing I would do is confirm that you are working with the correct form. Put a test message inside the article_listing form, then see if the test message appears when you click a category.

I put an x and it is not there
so, it is the wrong form ?
Or the wrong page. Check (in Presentation > Sections) if section ‘default’ is set to use page ‘default’.

venkatesaya
Can you set Production status (in Preferences) to ‘debugging’? It will then output a tag trace at the bottom of the source code. You can either post that here, or I can have a look online.

dank je Els

als ik dit display per category kan begrijpen kan ik het ook gebruiken voor andere andere displays
