How can I have an archive with multiple sections? (but not all)
I have an archive:
<txp:article_custom limit=99999 section="article" form="monthly_article" />
When I try to comma separate the sections it doesn’t work, how else could I have an article archive with multiple sections included (but not all sections)?
Thanks,
Peter

Re: How can I have an archive with multiple sections? (but not all)
The plugin chh_article_custom can handle multiple sections.

You could just duplicate your code, ex:
<code>
<h3>Blog</h3>
<txp:article_custom limit=“999” section=“blog” form=“monthly_article” />
<h3>Words</h3>
<txp:article_custom limit=“999” section=“words” form=“monthly_article” />
</code>

</code>
I tryed that but the monthly_article form uses the tag if_different which means it interferes when you try to add another archive list below it (i.e. it won’t repeat the months or year – because it isn’t ‘diffferent’)
<code>

</code>
I’ve installed it but it has caused the monthy_article not to work, if you go here: iomesus all the articles from both sections are there, but it is not displaying the year/month of any of the articles.
I am using the code from here: code for monthly_article
Thanks,
Peter

O.K. I just found out that if you use ‘listform’ instead of ‘form’ in chh_article_custom, it works!

I set up multiple archives for different, but not all, sections here using article_custom. Have you read Simple Archives 1 & 2? If you use something like that for your form code, it should work. I can dig up the forms I used, if needed.
EDIT: You should to turn “auto append comments” off to get the archives working. Then see this for displaying and styling.
