Re: resolved: category cloud that leads to articles ? I checked plugins

Unless base64_decode function is disabled on your server (in which case you won’t be able to install any plugins), I’ve got no clue, sorry. You can take a chance on smd_query to check

<txp:smd_query break=","
	query="SELECT name, title, count
	FROM (SELECT COUNT(*) count, Category1 FROM textpattern WHERE Status=4 GROUP BY Category1 HAVING count!=0) c
	JOIN txp_category ON name=c.Category1 WHERE type='article'
	ORDER BY title"
>
	<a href='<txp:category name="{name}" section="" url="1" />'>{title}</a>[{count}]
</txp:smd_query>

Re: resolved: category cloud that leads to articles ? I checked plugins

I tried to do some editing on my site and then see what the pages looked like, apparently it isn’t working at all.

So, it looks like my web host still has issues. I will try later today.

I tried smed_query on a different web site with txp 4.5.5, same error. I will contact my web host and see what is happening.

That error is invoked when the package is incomplete. This usually happens when query string sizes are limited by the host, and JimJoe does use free(-ish?) hosting services. Based on the IPs, his sites he has showcased here and the on in his profile seem to be hosted at CWahi/Crosswinds.

Jukka, you are most probably right, thanks. I have stripped the help out here, JimJoe could retry, but it’s still a long string…

Re: resolved: category cloud that leads to articles ? I checked plugins

crosswinds.net is the paid hosting, where these sites are. Cwahi.net is the freebie hosting. But since I was a beta tester for the freebie site, it shouldn’t make a difference as beta accounts have more things they can do.

The install worked this morning. I’ll work on it and see what it looks like.

I still have the links not working problem I had after my account hiccuped yesterday. I’ll deal with that, and see what happens.

Re: resolved: category cloud that leads to articles ? I checked plugins

Couldn’t figure out why the links didn’t work, so i just delelted everything and reinstalled. Working now.

I may go with the two column nistalled, than go back to 3 column. I just use two anyway.

Thanks for the help. If I slap myself again, I’ll stop by and ask for help.

@etc, I was able to install the etc_query with the help file removed. With the help file in there, I got the same error as before.
