P.S. i try to make a difference with categories but it won’t work.

I think I can see why it doesn’t work, but can you tell me first if you are using the same page template for the front page and your sections, or do the front page and each section have it’s own page template?

From the plugin help:

upm_date_menu can only be used on the front page by using messy urls. This is due to how Textpattern understands sections and the front page.

It looks like you’ll have to switch to messy.

You’re not understanding what I’m saying. If you want the archive to appear on a different section, such as “voorpagina”, then you need to put the upm_date_archive tag there and make sure upm_date_menu is pointing to that section (right now, it is not). See the plugin doc.

Hello,

Els : I have now 1 template for the frontpages and all the other pages.

Mary :

I will read the plugin doc again but i seems that my english is not as good as i thought it will be.

Els,

i tried two templates.
One for the frontpage with section “voorpagina” and one for the rest “article”.
I pointed the articles to the sections but no luck.
I switched over to the messy url’s but also no luck.

Roelof

I understand what Mary means and i have put the preferences on the article section.

Roelof, I’ve got it working in my test install like this (using one template for all sections, and messy URLs).

The tag for the menu, in the sidebar:

<txp:upm_date_menu section="article" link_to="article" insert_empty_months="no" />

This will not show months that don’t have articles; if you want to display the menu on the front page as well, make sure section ‘article’ is set to be displayed on the front page.

On the page, where the articles and article lists should go:

<txp:if_section name="">
<txp:article_custom section="voorpagina" form="default" />
</txp:if_section>
<txp:if_section name="article">
<txp:upm_date_archive section="article" include_date="yes" date_format="%e %B" mode="smart" form="dagboek" />
</txp:if_section>
<txp:if_section name=",article">
<txp:else />
<txp:article /><!-- this is for other sections than the front page or 'article' -->
</txp:if_section>

Of course, if you want to name your article section ‘dagboek’ instead of ‘article’ (which I think would look nicer in Dutch), you will have to change that in the code.

If you prefer to move to the Dutch forum, no problem, just say so :)

Hello Els,

Thank you for the code but now both articles can be seen on the frontpage.
It looks like every article on the frontpage get the section default instead of there own section.

Roelof

els · 2008-03-02 14:45:53

Then you’ll probably have another <txp:article /> tag on your page.

Nope,

That code looks all right.

Your article page works in messy mode: http://textpattern.tamarawobben.nl/index.php?s=article&month=2005-02. So you’ll have to switch to messy.

About the front page: can you check if article ’7 weken echo’ really is in section ‘article’?

roelof · 2008-03-02 16:37:01

Els,

Thank you, it works now.
Now i can try to make the menu like my old menu but i think that’s not a problem.
And then copy everything to the new site.
