TXP MINIMA: "about" page?

Hi!

I have instaled TXP MINIMA and I can’t understand how to write something in the link “about”. It is empty. If I write an article and choose the “about” section, the page will look llike a article, with category name, etc…

Thank you for any help.

Hi alex

Its look the same because they use the same page (template) if you want to make it differente you must create another page(template) and point the section to that page.

Hi Alex, not quite sure what you mean – if you add an article in the about section, it will display the way it does in the example about page

By the way, best ask questions on the template in the relevant thread.

Hi Dragondz! Hi Jstubbs!

Thank you for the reply!
I think this will help to express myself better:

see this:
http://jonathanstubbs.com/txp-minima/about/

then see:
http://www.mosapyr.com/about/

What I am trying to ask is: if we have the same code, why the first page (by Jonathan) doesn’t look the same to the second page (by me)
My page shows: the comment link, a comma, the author name and the date. The About page by Jonathan don’t show these things…

by the way, excuse me, Jonathan! I will (try) to post the message in the right place in the next time.

Re: TXP MINIMA: "about" page?

You must have either changed the code in the page source, or your section names don’t match. If you followed the instructions exactly, you will be fine.

The original “archive” page (template) has the following tags:

<txp:if_section name="about">
<txp:article limit=1 />
</txp:if_section>

Check your section names (you have )

You asked me by email about the gallery. Check for the “gallery” form:

<txp:wet_for_each_image category="Fun">
<txp:upm_image type="popup" image_id="{id}"/>
</txp:wet_for_each_image>

Change the category name to suit your image category.

Hi Stubbs!

Thank you for your time and your help…
Well, I checked the files and everything is ok… so, I think that I will forget this for a while… I can live without a “About” page ; )
