if_article_id problem

Hello!

I’ve set up an article that is formatted differently than the other articles or categories in my section. — It works fine when the article is displayed in context, in its category.

The problem would happen if someone did a search and pulled up the article by article id; http://mysite.org/txp/?id=259. I had specified that a right sidebar be excluded if the id is 259, but it shows up when the article is pulled up by id.

Here’s the code:
—————————————————————-
<txp:if_individual_article>
<txp:if_article_id id=259> <p> <else />
<div id=“sidebar”>
<?php include(‘../_sidebar.inc’); ?>
</div>
</txp:if_article_id>
</txp:if_individual_article>
————————————————————-

Am I doing something wrong? Thanks!! Vicki

That code is in the page template for the section.

I don’t know about your code, but I noticed that you have php tags in there. You can use them, but they must be wrapped properly, like in this FAQ entry.

When I did that, the sidebar stopped being included altogether!

Thanks, Vicki

p.s.
Plus the code, with the regular “<?php …” DOES work when the article appears within its section/category context (when url is /txp/?s …. &c….). It just doesn’t work when the article is displayed on its own (when url is /txp/?id=259).

Whoa! Just fixed it.

I changed the <else /> to <txp:else /> and voila! — Odd that it worked in some cases without this, and other case needed this.

thanks! Vicki

There must have been another reason that it seemed to work, because <else /> does not exist as a tag :)
