Clean category url won't work /category/whatever/
For some reason I can’t display content properly using when I try to go to a clean category url /category/whatever/
I get the following error:
tag_error -> Textpattern Notice: Page template template does not contain a txp:article tag on line 504
textpattern/publish.php:504 trigger_error()
index.php:33 textpattern()
It will work fine if if I use /section/?c=whatever
Maybe I am using a the if_category_conditional wrong. For example, I am using this code to output content if:
1) Front page of a section
2) Category of a section
3) Individual article of a section
<txp:if_category>
<!—category page begin—>
<txp:output_form form=“c_photography_category” />
<!—category page end—>
<txp:else />
<txp:if_individual_article>
<!—individual page begin—>
<txp:output_form form=“c_photography_individual” />
<!—individual page end—>
<txp:else />
<!—front begin—>
<txp:output_form form=“c_photography_front” />
<!—front page end—>
</txp:if_individual_article>
</txp:if_category>

Your output_form tags don’t reveal much. Could you please post the content of those forms?

Els, didn’t you mention in a previous thread somewhere that the /category/my-category urls only work at root level and not if the category is additionally called from within a section, i.e. /section/category/my-category is not possible? I always thought I’d never been able to get /category/my-category to work, but it’s probably because I always had categories in sections.

Aaah (lightbulb goes on)! Thanks Jakob :)
Matt, /category/category-name URLs use the front page/default section, so if you are using this code on a section page or inside if_section tags, that explains why the ‘clean’ URLs don’t display your content and /section-name/?c=category-name URLs do.
If you want /section-name/category-name/, have a look at gbp_permanent_links.
