News not sorted for Categories pages. (Done)

My problem is that all my categories displays the same news. By clicking the link to categories, I thought I would get sorted out just the articles related to that category, but it seems I was wrong.

I currently only got one page and that is default. Should I use pages for this kind of sorting instead?

My site http://juvenorge.com Frontpage

My article display code:

<txp:if_individual_article> <txp:article allowoverride="0" form="full_news" pgonly="0" /> <txp:else /> <txp:article_custom limit="1" /> <txp:article_custom limit="1" offset="1" form="small_news_left" /> <txp:article_custom limit="1" offset="2" form="small_news_right" /> </txp:if_individual_article>

article_custom does not do that kind of filtering. You need to use the article tag.

Ok, that was quite simple, Mary. Txp is just amazing. Very light, but still extremly powerfull. Loads of plugins and great support!

Im still not getting it 100% right. The problem is that I want sorted out just the articles from “news” at the frontpage. Now, I’m getting articles in the right category, but they also appear at the front page. This is my article display code:

<txp:if_individual_article> <txp:article allowoverride="0" form="full_news" pgonly="0" /> <txp:else /> <txp:article limit="1" /> <txp:article limit="1" offset="1" form="small_news_left" /> <txp:article limit="1" offset="2" form="small_news_right" /> </txp:if_individual_article>

Maybe that was a really bad explanation, but I guess it’s still understandable. Sorry for my bad English though.

Is ‘news’ a section or a category?

I’m not entirely sure what you’re trying to get. How’s this:

<txp:if_individual_article> 
	<txp:article pgonly="0" allowoverride="0" form="full_news" />
<txp:else />
	<txp:if_category>
		<txp:article />
	<txp:else />
		<txp:article_custom category="news" limit="1" />
	</txp:if_category>

	<txp:article_custom category="news" limit="1" offset="1" form="small_news_left" />
	<txp:article_custom category="news" limit="1" offset="2" form="small_news_right" />
</txp:if_individual_article>

(Assumes “news” is the category you want on the front page.)

That almost did it. I just moved form=“small_news_left and _right” below category=“news”. That worked very well.

Thanks again, Mary.
