Re: [plugin] [ORPHAN] rss_unlimited_categories - Unltd. Article Categories
floodfish: the problem is I need both: a linked version and a plain version. There would need to be a new attribute such as linked=“0”… Any ideas?

Is there a way to use rss_uc to retrieve articles with multiple categories using “AND” instead of “OR”? That is, can I request articles of categories 1 and 2?
Now added new attribute andcategory, use it.

Re: [plugin] [ORPHAN] rss_unlimited_categories - Unltd. Article Categories
(I feel silly asking this, as I presume the answer is dead obvious to everyone but me, but …)
When using rss_unlimited_categories_article_list or rss_unlimited_categories_related how do I make the name of the category display? I can pull up articles, but they are not visibly sorted by category, which I’m pretty sure is the whole point.
I need the name of a category, followed by appropriate articles in that category, then the name of the next category, etc.
Should I be using if_different? should I be using txp:category ?

Re: [plugin] [ORPHAN] rss_unlimited_categories - Unltd. Article Categories
So, I am pretty sure that rss_unlimited_categories doesn’t allow use of, nor offers a replacement for, the txp:category tag, at least when used in the context of txp:if_different or txp:article_custom.
Would anyone else find it useful to have an tag (called, perhaps, rss_unlimited_category) that would invoke the category name/id for using with txp:if_different and txp:article_custom?
makss, hoho, and anyone else doing dev work on this—does adding this strike you as necessary and/or possible?

Re: [plugin] [ORPHAN] rss_unlimited_categories - Unltd. Article Categories
Probably related to my earlier gripes.
The following code would work with old non-unlimited categories:
<txp:article_custom section="my-section" status="sticky" limit="1" category="my-category" />I’d think one ought to be able to reproduce this with rss_unlimited_categories_article_list. But that doesn’t seem to have a status attribute or otherwise be able to see sticky articles.
Any ideas/advice?

Hi makss,
Have you officially adopted this plugin? If you did, it would be cool if you open a new thread so as to have contol over the first post where the download link appears.

Re: [plugin] [ORPHAN] rss_unlimited_categories - Unltd. Article Categories
Makks, you’re the best. Thank you so much for taking this on!
<txp:rss_uc_filedunder linked="0" />
That would still return category titles, just unlinked, right? I need the name as opposed to the title so I can feed the result to another tag. I ended up hacking the plugin (very clumsily) to do this.

<txp:if_different><txp:rss_uc_filedunder linked="0" /></txp:if_different>, but articles unsorted… :-(
I was able to address this by using the very cool adi_cat_menu. (Adi is great; he’s doing ongoing development on the plugin, and is mindful of ensuring it plays nice with rss_unlimited_categories.)
Speaking of which, jpdupont suggested to a possible solution to the category names/titles problem in relation to adi_cat_menu. I haven’t tried this out yet, though (and I don’t think jpdupont’s using rss_unlimited_categories).

Upgrade plugin to 0.7.4p8 and try this
<txp:rss_uc_filedunder linked="2" break="," />
