Re: sections link straight to the article
so I think I’ll have to put this: <txp:article form=“displayform” limit=“1” /> and delete this part of code:
<txp:if_category> <h2><txp:category title=“1” /></h2>
<div class=“hfeed”>
<txp:article form=“article_listing” limit=“5” />
</div>
<txp:else />
<txp:if_search>
<h2><txp:text item=“search_results” />: <txp:page_url type=“q” /></h2>
<div class=“divider”><img src=”<txp:site_url />images/1.gif” width=“400” height=“1” alt=”—-” title=”“ /></div> </txp:if_search>
<div class=“hfeed”>
<txp:article limit=“5” />
</div>
</txp:if_category>
<txp:if_individual_article> <div class=“divider”><img src=”<txp:site_url />images/1.gif” width=“400” height=“1” alt=”—-” title=”“ /></div>
<p><txp:link_to_prev>« <txp:prev_title /></txp:link_to_prev>
<txp:link_to_next><txp:next_title /> »</txp:link_to_next></p>
<txp:else />
<p><txp:older>« <txp:text item=“older” /></txp:older>
<txp:newer><txp:text item=“newer” /> »</txp:newer></p>
</txp:if_individual_article>

Re: sections link straight to the article
Please tell us exactly what should happen on your About page, then we can help you with the contents of the page.
Edit: I gave you two case scenarios above – which one suits your situation?

Re: sections link straight to the article
thats the page: http://www.naiocast.theartofweb.net/
I used this one:
<txp:article form=“displayform” limit=“1” />
“displayform” form has this:
<div class=“entry-content”>
<txp:body />
</div>
Since the rest of my site is going to look like this I thought I’d delete the code I prev posted:<txp:if_category>…</txp:if_category> and <txp:if_individual_article>…</txp:if_individual_article> is there anything wrong in doing this?
my about page is working great and I guess in the section panel If I change “On front page = y” it’ll display as the first page…now my last question is how can I have those links checked when I click on them? And, how can I have the About Me link checked in the home page?
thanks ever so much

Re: sections link straight to the article
I meant what should happen when a visitor arrives at your /about page – what do you want them to see? Then we can help you figure out how to markup your TXP about page template….
As to your latest question:
Section list – see the active_class=“class name” part, and set your active class in your CSS accordingly.

Re: sections link straight to the article
One thing I’ve done in the past is to create a custom field called “Section_Home_Page”, you populate it with yes or no then you can use
<txp:if_article_list>
<txp:article Section_Home_Page="yes" limit="1" />
</txp:if_article_list>
<txp:if_individual_article>
<txp:article limit="1" />
</txp:if_individual_article>which will display the article marked as “Section_Home_page” when you are on an article list (section page) otherwise it will show the regular article. This allows for /section/title urls. which I prefer over /title urls.
I use glz_custom_fields to make the custom field a simple checkbox. Works pretty well.
It would be nice to be able to select an article based on url-title so you could have a pattern that an article with the same name as the section gets used as the section home page (there’s probably a plugin that will do that, I haven’t looked)

When a visitor arrives at my /about page some text is to be shown. The same goes for /portfolio, /contact etc…so I think I successfully sorted it out.

Re: sections link straight to the article
the active_class is working great! I did this:
<txp:section_list active_class=“section_list_active” wraptag=“ul” break=“li” />
with the following style:
.section_list_active {
font-weight: bold;
}
I was wondering how I could have a given section “active” as default…can it actually be done?
thanks
