Category List

Hi the following code is to spit out a category list for my blog section, and also ONLY the categories in the parent cat Blog.

					<ul>
<txp:category_list label="" parent="Blog" section="blog" sort="title asc" this_section="1" type="article" exclude="Blog" break="" form="cat_list" />
					</ul>

the next bit of code is the form

<li>
<txp:category link="1" name="" type="article" url="0" />
</li>

The problem however is that its display the names instead of the titles? so like if the cat is Web Standards, it’ll show web-standards. Any ideas what the problem is ? Thanks

Re: Category List

See txp:category and bookmark Tag Reference

Attribute: title="1"

Also, you don’t need to set defaults again, so you don’t need name="". Same goes for the type and the url.

Re: Category List

How come title=“1” isn’t on the tag builder in Textpattern itself? Fixed it thanks

As an add on though, how could I show the number of articles in the categories? so like Web Standards – 21

It is (but like Gocom said, Textbook is a better reference):

One way to do that is mdn_count.

Re: Category List

I’m not sure if this is a bug, but that form, when you choose title yes, it adds link=‘1’ to the tag??? shouldn’t it be adding title=“1” and not the link :S

You are right, I think it’s a bug. I never use the tagbuilder so I never noticed it before. Since you discovered it, driz, would you mind posting it in the Developer support forum? ;)
