Re: List articles by Custom Field with RSS Unlimited Categories

Do you know if this works with categories created by rss_unlimited_categories?

No. I never used or tested the plugin. All I saw there was a tag within a tag which requires single quotes during parsing.

And it seems to me that YouTubeSeries='<txp:custom_field name="YouTubeSeries" />' makes no sense. It selects any article with any YouTubeSeries custom field content. Or am I wrong?

Tags’ attributes are parsed before and independently of the tag itself, so this perfectly makes sense: <txp:custom_field name="YouTubeSeries" /> will take it’s value from the current article outside <txp:article_custom />.

But, which value?

The value of the calling article’s YouTubeSeries. If you call it inside an article with YouTubeSeries equal to “Friends”, <txp:article_custom YouTubeSeries='<txp:custom_field name="YouTubeSeries" />' /> will be finally parsed as <txp:article_custom YouTubeSeries='Friends' />. That’s different from

<txp:article_custom>
<txp:if_custom_field name="YouTubeSeries" value='<txp:custom_field name="YouTubeSeries" />'>
...
</txp:if_custom_field>
</txp:article_custom>

that will output all articles, as you rightly state above.

Re: List articles by Custom Field with RSS Unlimited Categories

I think we are discussing two different things. I know how the article and the article_custom tags work. But the question at the beginning was in reference to the rss_unlimited_categories plugin.

And for the both mentioned Textpattern tags we can work with the customfieldname=“value” attribute.

Re: List articles by Custom Field with RSS Unlimited Categories

Would this work?

<txp:rss_unlimited_categories_article_list filterfield="YouTubeSeries" limit="20" section="articles" category="youtube" wraptag="ul"/>
<txp:variable name="utube" value='<txp:custom_field name="YouTubeSeries">'/>
<txp:if_variable name="utube" value="somevalue">
<li><txp:permlink><txp:article_image /><txp:permlink></li>
</txp:if_variable>
</txp:rss_unlimited_categories_article_list>
