Article list and individual article on the same page

Hello,

I am trying to create a page with two columns. The left column should display a paginated list of articles. When the user clicks on an individual article, I would like the left column article list to remain the same, and have the individual article contents display in the right column.

I can accomplish this with <txp:article_custom> on the left and <txp:article> on the right, but pagination does not work for <txp:article_custom>. My current idea for a workaround is to use adi_gps to extract page number variables from the URL, and then use the a bunch of if_variable statements to adjust the offset attribute in article_custom. This effectively hacks pagination for article_custom but it’s super clunky.

Does anyone have a better idea for how to do this?

Many thanks,
Jonas

Re: Article list and individual article on the same page

For the <txp:article_custom /> column what about using the wet_if_page plug-in and the “offset” attribute for the tag?
