Article in section but not category?

lee · 2008-02-09 17:16:16

What combination of tags could I use to say:

If this article is in a section but not category then do this

Thanks for any ideas, I’m quite stuck.

Cheers
Lee

I’m not exactly sure for your circumstances, but you could try something like this. I think conditional tags will nest fine. There may be a more efficient way – it depends how flexible you need the result to be.

<txp:if_section name=“some_section”> <txp:if_article_category name=“article_category_you_do_not_want”> <txp:else /> <txp:article /> </txp:if_article_category>
</txp:if_section>

Thanks for the help, your idea would have worked except that I would need <txp:if_article_category name=“article_category_you_do_not_want”> to accept a list of categories.

Thank you, I completely forgot about that.

Raina’s example is fine, just use if_article_section instead of if_section when used in individual article mode. Why use a plugin when native TXP tags can do it?

if_article_category does accept a comma separated list of categories :)

Yeah you’re right, I looked it up after I posted, but somehow it didn’t work in my scenario. Thanks for your suggestion – trying it now.
