why are my article categories not working??
this site is still heavily under construction and currently is only tested for FireFox on a PC
http://www.diskoweb.com/thedeadshark/index.php?s=Live-Feed
Anyways, you will notice that the category links (either in the article itself or in the menu on the right) are not doing anything on this particular page. These categories ONLY apply to the section called “Live Feed”.
Any idea why these are not working?
- I realize that the links under each article and the links in the menu are pointing to different URLs, but regardles neither of them work

Can you show us what the article tag on your ‘Live Feed’ page looks like?

on the “Live Feed” page:
<code><txp:article_custom form=“default_liveFeedFull” section=“Live-Feed” /></code>

There’s the problem. <txp:article_custom /> is not context sensitive, so it doesn’t ‘know’ we’re on a category page. If you just change it to <txp:article form="default_liveFeedFull" /> the tag will recognize the section as well as the category that is requested.

Try the rss_suparchive plugin.
