Re: [plugin] [ORPHAN] rss_suparchive - article archive list

The form is just a standard article form. You can use all of the same fields or plugins that work with articles.

The change to use category title is not a trivial one. Someone else asked about it as well, I thought I had a quick fix for it and it didn’t work. I just don’t have the time to work it out at the moment but I’m sure I will at some point.

Thanks Rob works perfect. That was my first thought, but I figured I better check before poking around under the hood :)

Can you show me How you got it to display like this?

Update: Never mind rss_superarchive_menu, doh!

Re: [plugin] [ORPHAN] rss_suparchive - article archive list

Pardon me for asking if this has been answered already, but…

Is there a way to list out recent articles by section, and not category or date?

Great plugin, would be much better if the offset worked though. As soon as the offset-tag is used there’s no output whatsoever.

Re: [plugin] [ORPHAN] rss_suparchive - article archive list

In a textdrive forum, Zem asserts that article_custom can be used instead of rss_suparchive in many cases. I think it would be great to have a “best practices” series of examples stating when rss_suparchive should be used and when article_custom should be used instead. I think both have their applications.

I really would have like to see examples of how that is done. I have always avoided using article_custom after reading in the forum “well, that doesn’t work with article_custom” way too many times around here.

Re: [plugin] [ORPHAN] rss_suparchive - article archive list

I would like to see the article custom example too. It’s nice to have open options. I have yet to see any problems like what was referenced at txd forum with this plugin, but like many things if you call a plugin several times on the page it can cause server stress but the numbers jason gave out were astounding to say the least.. I mean at this point there isn’t much you can’t do with the rss_superarchive plugin as far as displaying article,cat,section, and date links goes.

Re: [plugin] [ORPHAN] rss_suparchive - article archive list

Yeah, I don’t think rss_suparchive was the culprit in the TXD case, just too many calls and conditionals within that page template. When time opens up, I will try to provide some basic examples myself of using article_custom with a “basic” date-based archive and instances when rss_suparchive is needed instead. Just want to make sure from Zem that I’m not missing any undocumented article_custom attributes or features.

What would also be great is to be able to select the type. links, articles, or images. So in the suparchive tag I would have type=“link” and it would let me output an archive of the links in my system.

Re: [plugin] [ORPHAN] rss_suparchive - article archive list

help! i want to have an archive page roughly like this one. I have (using parenthesees rather then greather/less then; how do i get those to show??)

(txp:rss_suparchive_menu section=“article” linktosection=“archives” limit=“1000” /)

in my archive page which appears to produce the correct result, but you will see that each of the links links to, for example:

http://www.criticalmiami.com/archives/2005/04

which produces the same result as the home page (except uses a different form on which the header is messed up . . . but nevermind that). What am i missing??


Yes, I have tried turning it off and on.

Re: [plugin] [ORPHAN] rss_suparchive - article archive list

How might I reverse the order of the posts? I can’t seem to get the sortdir to function.

Thanks in advance!!
