that is because you need to create an if category listing in that desired section.

Re: [plugin] [ORPHAN] rss_unlimited_categories - Unltd. Article Categories

<txp:if_category>
<txp:article form="yourFormName" limit="whateverNumberYouWant" />
<txp:else />
<txp:article form="yourFormName" limit="whateverNumberYouWant" />
</txp:if_category>

Basically the top bit before the “else” is for the category listing and the bottom bit after the “else” is for you normal article listing. This goes into your page template.

Re: [plugin] [ORPHAN] rss_unlimited_categories - Unltd. Article Categories

Hello!

I’m using the rss_sct_permlink tag. But when I mouse over the link of an article I see “Permanent link to this article” And I want to change it so It can show the Title of the article

I found at 636 line of this plugin what I need to change, but I don’t know with what!

return tag(parse($thing),'a',' href="'.$url.'" title="'.gTxt('permanent_link').'"');

Hope some of you can help me.

Thanks in advance and sorry for my poor English.

Robhert.

Re: [plugin] [ORPHAN] rss_unlimited_categories - Unltd. Article Categories

Alright…after modifying some things, I think I’ve come to a point where I can further describe what I’m doing.

I’m using rss_unlimited_categories to tag both my portfolio and my news(blog). Under my navigation, on my main page, I have a list of all the article categories and I’d love of it to be that when a user clicks one of the categories, they are brought to a page with a list of all the articles under said category. As of right now that does not work. This is my code: <txp:rss_unlimited_categories_list break="li" />

I have in the body of every article a list of all the categories applied to a given article. This is my code: <txp:rss_unlimited_categories_filedunder section=“News” />. When I click on a category my article goes to www.mysite.com/article/category. It kind of works for my “News” category. That is, I can see my article list, but for some reason, the styling seems to break – like a CSS issue.

I have in the body of every “Portfolio” article a list of all the categories applied to a given article. This is my code: <txp:rss_unlimited_categories_filedunder section=“Portfolio” />. When I click on a category my article goes to www.mysite.com/article/category. Unlike “News,” no article appears, but there is no style error.

I’m completely befuddled here. Does anybody have any insight into this issue?

Re: [plugin] [ORPHAN] rss_unlimited_categories - Unltd. Article Categories

I just tried the same thing as conspirator.
i added <txp:rss_unlimited_categories_filedunder section=projects /> to an article.

The correct category name appears (construction), but it’s linked to www.mysite.com/article/construction —which, when clicked, lands on a 404 page.

I also tried <txp:rss_unlimited_categories_filedunder linktosection=projects />
That gives me a link to www.mysite.com/projects/construction — which, when clicked, returns a page from the projects section with the div where the articles should be displayed, collapsed and empty.

My hope is to end up with a construction link that will generate a page with all of the articles in the construction category.

Thanks for any advice.

You need to have a working section created with a page template consisting of the category article list.

I’ve got that. The section page calls articles using the same methodology shown in thebombsite’s post at the top of this page.

Re: [plugin] [ORPHAN] rss_unlimited_categories - Unltd. Article Categories

Sorry if this has been asked before..is there a way to see article number inside category tab near category names?
This is really a big problem since I can’t quickly access articles inside categories, specially when you have a lot of articles.

Thanks!

There is no way. The articles are being assigned to a new table along with the categories created by the plugin. You can use the categories list tag to see the number of articles within each category.

Re: [plugin] [ORPHAN] rss_unlimited_categories - Unltd. Article Categories

Sorry to double post here but I want to show the five related articles but after I insert the tag and I browse it, I get a 500 Internal Server Error. Is there something wrong with the tag?

Re: [plugin] [ORPHAN] rss_unlimited_categories - Unltd. Article Categories

I tried going through the archives of this section, but I didn’t see anything after a few pages…

I want to show article where multiple categories are selected.

I want only articles that have cat1 and cat2 selected. If it’s only one or the other, I don’t want it.

Is it possible? Thanks.
