Back to basics. txp:article list by category
Morning peeps!
You can filter txp:article by status, custom fields, time and keywords, but not categories! Strange omission.
I can’t use article_custom due to ob1_pagination. Is there a clever way round this (I need to either include two categories, or exclude one) using txp:article?
Does chh_article_custom work with the latest TXP and ob1_pagination?
Help would be appreciated!

This is by design: The current category is conveyed by the URL your visitor is requesting.

I can work around it using the article status.

Actually, I can’t.

Maybe smd_query could help you?

Could you just go ahead and use txp:article_custom and replace ob1_pagination with a jQuery solution like jPaginate?

Is it possible to filter txp:article by excluding a keyword?
I.e. <txp:article section="weddings" keywords="!archive"/>
(To return all except those with archive keyword)

Hi Ross,you could try
<txp:variable name="key-archive" value='<txp:article_custom section="weddings" keywords="archive" break="," limit="999"><txp:article_id /></txp:article_custom>' />
<txp:if_article_id id='<txp:variable name="key-archive" />' >
<txp:hide>for any articles having the keyword 'archive' show nothing</txp:hide>
<txp:else />
<txp:article>
your tags
</txp:article>
</txp:if_article_id>Yiannis
