I made a section called ‘articles’.
I want the main page to be displaying a list of my articles (http://site.com/articles), and underneath (http://site.com/articles/hello). The urls work, but I just don’t know how to set the form up correctly. The subpages seem to be appearing on the main article page, too.
Please help! Thank you.

Re: Pages
Sub pages or sections won’t work that way, a section the way you are using articles is as deep as sections will go. TXP is disregarding hello in the url.

How so? Is not “articles” the section and “hello” the article? With a section/title url scheme that should work just fine.
Scotti, in your page template that you are using for the “articles” section you will have a txp:article tag. In that tag there should be an attribute listform="form-name-for-article-list-page" and form="form-name-for-individual-article-page". You can define each form differently to show different kinds of results for your section landing page (the article list displays up to 10 articles, more if you increase the value with limit="x") and for the individual article (shows only the current article). If these are both the same they will produce similar output. Try using txp:permlink, txp:title and txp:excerpt in your listform and txp:title and txp:body in your standard individual article form – that will give you a list of linked article titles with excerpt (where entered in the article itself) on the /articles page and a full article on the /articles/hello page.
See the txp tag reference for details of how to use the different tags.
