Sections not showing up?

Rocamm · 2006-05-20 00:51:40

I can only get the Articles on the main page to display properly,
all others seem to have dissapeared if i try to use the pop up menu (to the right),
I can’t seem to figure out what’s wrong.. I’ve followed all FAQ’s and Tutorials..
I think I’m just missing something in front of my face..

Any sort of help would be greatly appriciated!
I really am loving Textpattern!
what a great program..!

here’s the link that I’ve been having problems with:

let me know if there’s anyone that can help!!
thanks so much

I think you’ve encountered the “do not ‘show on front page’” problem (it needs to be fixed): your “About” section is set to not display on the front page, right?

Rocamm · 2006-05-20 02:42:17

Yes it’s set to not display..
but does that really mean that it doesn’t come up with any of the other sections?
I didn’t want the bio and contact stuff on the front page…?
what’s the work around for static pages that you don’t want there..??

Rocamm · 2006-05-20 15:57:21

I tried again to put the sections so that they were on the front page,
but they still don’t show up… not sure what’s going on..
think I’m missing some sort of small code..

Just guessing here, but does this work?

<txp:if_individual_article> <txp:article form=“default” listform=“excerpt” />
<p>
<txp:link_to_prev><txp:prev_title /></txp:link_to_prev>
<txp:link_to_next><txp:next_title /></txp:link_to_next>
</p>
</txp:if_individual_article>
<txp:if_article_list> <txp:article form=“default” listform=“excerpt” />
<p>
<txp:older>Previous</txp:older>
<txp:newer>Next</txp:newer>
</p>
</txp:if_article_list>
</div>
</code>

I put the <code>< txp:article form=“default” listform=“excerpt” / ></code> inside the conditionals.

Rocamm · 2006-05-20 17:48:34

Didn’t change anything

:(

Your sections are there. Go to http://www.lizamonroy.com/textpattern/?s=about to see. It’s just that you only have the popup category list. You also need <txp:popup type="s" />.

Rocamm · 2006-05-20 21:37:57

Ok the sections are there..
I figured that part out..
then I guess the problem must be in the excerpts they are not displaying the articles correctly..
they just display the previous next titles but no article content…?
what could be causing this?

sorry for asking so many questions,
just trying to figure out textpattern!
