<txp:older /> and <txp:newer />
Hi
Why is the <txp:newer> and <txp:older> not showing the links?
[code]
<txp:article_custom allowoverride=“1” form=“news-listing” limit=“5” pgonly=“0” section=“latest-news” sort=“Posted desc” status=“4” />
<p><txp:newer>« Newer articles|</txp:newer><txp:older>Previous articles »</txp:older></p>
[/code]
I have also just tested a url like : http://testdomain.com/articles/?pg=2 and all its doing is showing the same articles as the first page!

Probably because older/newer don’t work with <txp:article_custom />. From that page:
… while the article tag can only see posts within the currently viewed section/category/author and so forth, article_custom can see all posts from all sections, categories and authors unless you restrict it via attributes (see below), thus context-sensitive navigation tags, such as older and newer, will not work

hi
<txp:article sort=“Posted desc” limit=“2” form=“news-listing” />
this is not working! I have setup 1 test article in the section “news-test” and the code above is in the default page code used for the section “news-test” I dont understand why its not picking the article up

Hi glenelkins,
Can you post a tag trace?

Re: <txp:older /> and <txp:newer />
its ok i worked that out
the older and newer links show on the article list fine now! but how do you get them to show on an individual article?

Re: <txp:older /> and <txp:newer />
For the individual article you need the link_to_next and link_to_prev tags.

Re: <txp:older /> and <txp:newer />
In the form somewhere you can have something like
<txp:if_article_list>
<txp:older /> | <txp:newer /> <txp:hide> This is when you are in an article list </txp:hide>
<txp:else />
<txp:link_to_next /> |<txp:link_to_prev /> <txp:hide> This is when you are in an individual article </txp:hide>
<txp:if_article_list>Yiannis
