How do I create a page of articles in a section?
Hello, I need a little help please! I would like to use a category list and when you click on the category, be taken to a page that lists out each article for that category.
I understand how to create the category list, that is no problem. My problem is when you click the category it goes to a page that has the correct path in the address bar, but the page is my default index template. You can see what I mean on my site. <a href=“http://www.digitalrealmmedia.com/blog/”>DigitalRealm</a>
Right below the title, I have the section it is in, when you click that, you get the index page minus the images?!
Any help on repairing this little problem? Thanks!

Re: How do I create a page of articles in a section?
It’s okay: by default, category urls use the “default” page.
What you want to do is put something like the following in your default page:
<txp:if_category>
<!-- we're trying to view a category list! -->
<!-- customize how you want your category list to look -->
<txp:article />
<txp:else />
<!-- we're just trying to view the front page -->
<!-- put your front page content here -->
<txp:article />
</txp:if_category>Obviously the example I gave doesn’t do much, but hopefully it is clear what to do? :)

Ok I see what you are saying, I will try this out and see how it goes. I understand what you are saying and I see the logic behind it so it shouldn’t be to hard to figure out. Thanks for the help!
