Trying to exclude one article in a list
On the site I’m building, I have a news section that contains 3 categories. I want two of these categories to appear in an article list (latest news) when the user first visits the section. The third category contains only one article, and since it will be a static “sub-section”, it should never appear in the list.
Article custom won’t work for me in this case because I want the list to have older/newer functionality. I found a plugin that seemed to do exactly what I needed— soo_article_filter— which allows for you to filter articles in a list based on certain criteria. In this case, I wanted to show every article that had static-article-order undefined. When I attempted to use it the page imploded on itself. TXP flat-out ignores the tag:
<txp:soo_article_filter static-article-order="">
and instead I get the article list, followed by the full versions of every article. TXP informs me that:
Tag error: <txp:else/> -> Textpattern Warning: tag does not exist on line 1120
Tag error: <txp:if_article_category name="press-releases"> -> Textpattern Notice: Article tags cannot be used outside an article context on line 2175
This is probably because the code snippet in question reads:
<txp:if_article_list>
<txp:soo_article_filter static-article-order="">
<txp:article limit="7" form="article-list"/>
</txp:soo_article_filter>
<txp:older>◄ Older</txp:older> <txp:newer>Newer ► </txp:newer>
<txp:else/>
<txp:if_article_category name="press-releases">
<txp:article form="press-release"/>
<txp:else/>
<txp:article/>TXP seems fine with <txp:soo_article_filter> until I try and sort by custom field, and I can’t figure out why. I disabled different plugins to see if something wasn’t playing nice, but that doesn’t seem to be the problem. And I’m not sure why the problem erupts only when I try and sort by a custom field. It’s very curious.
Here’s the tag trace. If anyone has an idea of what’s going screwy, or if they have a simpler way to solve the sort problem, I’d be very grateful.

Re: Trying to exclude one article in a list
Being away from the computer I’m finding it a challenge to read a tag trace ;)
I think the reason soo_article_filter isn’t filtering is that it can’t handle custom field names containing hyphens.
Also, add a space before the closing slash in else.
Code is topiary

Re: Trying to exclude one article in a list
Tag error: <txp:else/> -> Textpattern Warning: tag does not exist on line 1120
You should close the if_ tags, like this:
<txp:if_article_list>
...
<txp:else />
...
</txp:if_article_list>Tag error: <txp:if_article_category name=“press-releases”> -> Textpattern Notice: Article tags cannot be used outside an article context on line 2175
<txp:if_article_category> belongs in your article form, not on the page the way you used it.
