Re: Browsing by date plugin
Do you have this set up anywhere where I could take a look at it? Also, it would be helpful to know exactly which tag you’re using and what parameters you passed to it.
FYI, it looks like the <code>sec</code> parameter isn’t working properly. I’ll post an update tomorrow.

Re: Browsing by date plugin
i tested it on txp on my computer, tried this tag:
‘< txp:akw_month_list />
and these months were shown:
May 2004
April 2004
March 2004
February 2004
January 2004
it directs me to the right month, like for example, may: http://localhost/textpattern/?y=2004&m=05
april:
http://localhost/textpattern/?y=2004&m=04
and march:
http://localhost/textpattern/?y=2004&m=03
yet it only takes me to may.i’ll be waiting for the update.thanks!

Re: Browsing by date plugin
jayagt, have you replaced the <code><txp:article /></code> tag with <code><txp:akw_article_date_aware /></code>?

Re: Browsing by date plugin
Rem, the month_list tags are used to pass date parameters to archive sections. akw_article_date_aware then reads the date parameters via the url and outputs the specified articles. I generate the list of posts on my journal page using a special archive tag that I plan to release once TXP 1.19 is out.
Do you know when this portion of the plugin might be ready now that 1.19 is released?

Re: Browsing by date plugin
thekolonel,
I am confused as how to use this set of tags? Can you give an example of where I need to put the tags to get a page like your Journal section.
Like where do I put <code><txp:akw_article_date_aware /></code> (from reading these posts I think it is mandatory).
thanks

Re: Browsing by date plugin
New version available for g119. The section and category parameters now work properly. Grab a copy at http://www.nakedloftparty.com/txp_plugins/. I’m still in the process of migrating to g119 so let me know if there are any glitches and I’ll get on em immediately.

Re: Browsing by date plugin
tiny,
Here’s what I have on my journal page. This is in the sidebar:
<code><txp:akw_nested_month_list yearul=“year-list” yearli=“year” monthul=“month-list” monthli=“month” yearprefix=“Post titles for” monthprefix=“Excerpts for” /></code>
And then this in the body (from my new archive list plugin):
<code><txp:archive limit=“1000” lowform=“entry_list” medform=“entry_excerpt” form=“entry_full” headwrap=“h3” daywrapclass=“day-list” dayitemclass=“day” postwrapclass=“post-list” /></code>
If you don’t need the archive list tag, you can also use this in the body:
<code><txp:akw_article_date_aware /></code>
(If you manually enter ../default/2003 into the url on my front page you’ll see the automatic filtering in action. I could’ve added a list of months there too.)
You can use <code><txp:akw_article_date_aware /></code> anywhere you’d use <code><txp:article /></code>. It works hand-in-hand with the month-list tags.

PS — check out this site. She’s got it working on her front page.

Re: Browsing by date plugin
I was having problems getting this to work until I realized that the akw_article_date_aware tag and the akw_nested_month_list have to be on the same page.
Works perfectly know thanks.

Re: Browsing by date plugin
I’m having trouble Kolonel. I’m at work now, but if it’s okay, I’ll email you when I get more time to work on this.

Re: Browsing by date plugin
Okay Kolonel, or anyone else with suggestions (jayaqt?),
Check this (url removed) out. It is displaying the most recent entries, instead of the september 2003 entries.
I have txp:akw_article_date_aware in my archive page. I have no idea why it’s not working.

Re: Browsing by date plugin
Can somebody clarify how to use all these “akw_xxx” tags:
txp:akw_archive_plugin
txp:akw_article_date_aware_plugin
txp:akw_article_custom
txp:akw_date_aware
txp:akw_month_list
txp:akw_nested_month_list
It seems there are two plugins but six tags;
- what akw_xxx plugins create what tags?
- what is the syntax for the 6 tags?
- can somebody post examples of using these tags?
I only found the two encrypted plugins on the site, and no help file or examples…

Re: Browsing by date plugin
If you install them in textpattern there is documentation for the plugins in the admin -> plugins -> [plugin] page. Try that.
