Sticky not working!

I’ve been trying to use sticky articles and place at the top of a page if there is an article list, but they wont show up.

Here’s my code:

<txp:if_individual_article>
<txp:article form="Archives" listform="Archives-list" />
</txp:if_individual_article>
<txp:if_article_list>
<txp:article form="Archives" listform="Archives-list" status="sticky" />
<txp:article form="Archives" listform="Archives-list" limit="5" />
</txp:if_article_list>

I even tried this

<txp:article form="Archives" listform="Archives-list" status="sticky" />
<txp:article form="Archives" listform="Archives-list" limit="5" status="live" />

But then the live articles wont show up.

Re: Sticky not working!

Please post the content of your “Archives-list” form.

Re: Sticky not working!

How about…

<txp:if_individual_article>
    <txp:article form="Archives" />
<txp:else />
    <txp:article listform="Archives-list" status="sticky" />
    <txp:article listform="Archives-list" limit="5" />
</txp:if_individual_article>

?

Re: Sticky not working!

Well it looks better since you removed some unnesssary code, but no, that didn’t do anything I’m afraid.

Re: Sticky not working!

Is your sticky article in a section that can be displayed on that page? Otherwise you might need article_custom instead of article.

Yes it’s the same section.

And I tried using article_custom but that didn’t work either.

Re: Sticky not working!

Have you tried using the form attribute instead of listform? Just a thought…

Re: Sticky not working!

I tried:

 <txp:article form="Archives" status="sticky" />

Nothing.

It seems that the status tag doesn’t work at all, either with live or sticky.
Strange.

Re: Sticky not working!

Can you post a tag trace? (instructions bottom of this FAQ)

Re: Sticky not working!

<txp:if_individual_article>
	[<txp:if_individual_article>: false]
</txp:if_individual_article>
<txp:if_article_list>
	[<txp:if_article_list>: true]
	<txp:article listform="Archives-list" status="sticky" />
		[SQL (0,001217): select *, unix_timestamp(Posted) as uPosted from textpattern where 1 and Status = 5 and Posted <= now() and Section = 'archives-tip' and custom_10 like 'sticky'  order by Posted desc limit 0, 10]
	<txp:article listform="Archives-list" limit="5" />
		[SQL (0,000490): select count(*) from textpattern where 1 and Status = 4 and Posted <= now() and Section = 'archives-tip']
		[SQL (0,000923): select *, unix_timestamp(Posted) as uPosted from textpattern where 1 and Status = 4 and Posted <= now() and Section = 'archives-tip' order by Posted desc limit 0, 5]
		[artikel 395]
		[SQL (0,000291): select Form from txp_form where name='Archives-list']
		[Siddel: Archives-list]
		<txp:title/>
		<txp:article_image/>
		<txp:body/>
	<txp:newer>
	</txp:newer>
	<txp:older>
	</txp:older>
</txp:if_article_list>

Language is set to Swedish.

Artikel = Article
Siddel = Form

Could this be related to this “hack” (which I did earlier):
http://gerhardlazu.com/blog/32/10-more-custom-fields-please

This looks like it could be a problem since I have 20 custom fields:

'archives-tip' and custom_10 like 'sticky'

Re: Sticky not working!

Do you have a custom field named ‘status’? Certain names are reserved and can cause lots of trouble…
