Permalink leads to blank article!

I’ve never had this problem before with Textpattern.

It lists the blog posts fine, but clicking the permalinked title leads to a page without the article being output.

I’ve spent many hours now, trying to figure out what can be wrong, but I am now totally out of ideas.

Anyone?

Did your tag trace tell you anything?

Re: Permalink leads to blank article!

Well, to check if it was me having done some bad stuff with either the page or the article forms, I restored those to the factory defaults that are on a new txp instal., ie. this:

http://www.integrateddesign.dk/txp/blog/

I have debugging on, so the page source should reveal some stuff… I can’t find any clue in it though…

Re: Permalink leads to blank article!

<txp:if_category>
	[<txp:if_category>: false]
	<txp:if_search>
		[<txp:if_search>: false]
	</txp:if_search>
	<txp:article limit="5" />
</txp:if_category>
<txp:if_individual_article>
	[<txp:if_individual_article>: true]
	<txp:site_url/>
	<txp:link_to_prev>
		[SQL (0.003657): select ID as thisid, Section as section, Title as title, url_title, unix_timestamp(Posted) as posted from textpattern where ID = 80]
		<txp:prev_title/>
	</txp:link_to_prev>
	<txp:link_to_next>
		[SQL (0.000464): select ID as thisid, Section as section, Title as title, url_title, unix_timestamp(Posted) as posted from textpattern where ID = 86]
		<txp:next_title/>
	</txp:link_to_next>
</txp:if_individual_article>

There doesn’t seem to be an article tag for if_individual_article…

Re: Permalink leads to blank article!

Els is correct, you are missing the article tag in the if_individual_article conditional. Check your page template…

Re: Permalink leads to blank article!

Nope. It is there. Textpattern just somehow filters it out. Must be either a plugin (tru_tags or mta_author) that has broken something. My guess is mta_author, but what do I know. I’m on a tight deadline. Else, it can be the WordPress import script that has broken something upon import. I had to twist that script a bit in order to make it import…

Thanks for your help anyways. I have to go back to WordPress and finish the project there. Spend 10 hours yesterday on this problem.

(been using Textpattern since 2004 and never had this occur before)

Re: Permalink leads to blank article!

Why not just remove tru_tags and mta_author and debug from there? Could you post your page code?

Don’t know if it helps, but I had a similar issue recently. Looking at the tag trace it just stopped somewhere half way the code. In the end it turned out to be one </txp:if_section> closing tag too many… So maybe you should look for unclosed or double closed tags.

Re: Permalink leads to blank article!

It is very kind of you (really) and normally I would be willing to bug hunt, but for this particular job I have a tight deadline, and WordPress is working out well;-)

PS: As I wrote, I tried using the page and forms from a stock TXP install, and the problem was the same, so I don’t think it was a mistake in the page or forms… I’ve made quite a few sites in TXP during the last 4 years or so… Would not forget to include the dear article tag;-)
