Posts don't show on category pages
I’m using the rss_unlimited_categories plugin to list the categories a post is filed under. This is what is in my post form:
<txp:rss_unlimited_categories_filedunder section="log" linktosection="log" />When I click on a category link, it leads to a clean url category page, but no posts ever show on that page. I remember category pages use the default page template, so is there something I should add on it for posts to show on a category page ?
So far, this is what I have:
<txp:if_individual_article>
<txp:article section="log" form="Single" limit="1" sortby="Posted" sortdir="desc" />
<div id="nav">
<txp:link_to_prev>«</txp:link_to_prev>
<txp:link_to_next>»</txp:link_to_next>
<txp:else />
<txp:article form="default" limit="15" section="log" sortby="Posted" sortdir="desc" />
<div id="nav">
<txp:older>«</txp:older> <txp:newer>»</txp:newer></txp:if_individual_article>
</div>Added bc. – Gocom

Re: Posts don't show on category pages
Do you have articles auto appending on the frontpage? If not you will need to set it so, or use article_custom. article is context sensitive tag and will only display articles from the current section (or appending).
But because you are using rss_unlimited_categories, and not the inbuild category system, you might want to use it’s own tags; TXP’s inbuild tags won’t support unlimited categories that are stored in seperate table. Note: <txp:rss_unlimited_categories_article_list />.
Also note that <txp:article /> doesn’t have attribute section (note: section="log").

Re: Posts don't show on category pages
I have the ‘log’ section auto-appended (from the Sections page where it says On front page?). I have tried to use article_custom but when I do, the older/newer links disappear. Could you please show me how to write my article_custom tag in order for those links to still show ?

As I said:

<txp:rss_unlimited_categories_article_list />.
So, use the plugin’s tags instead of TXP’s core tags. And:
Also note that <txp:article /> doesn’t have attribute section (note: section=“log”).
