Re: Best way to create single article landing page for section

I use the “sticky” method as well, but in conjunction with <txp:if_individual_article>. Thus my solution is kind of the inverse of Els’. For instance:

<txp:if_individual_article>
   <txp:artlce />
<txp:else />
   <txp:article status="sticky" /> <-- section landing page content; can be accompanied by other forms or conditionals like <txp:if_category>
</txp:if_individual_article>

Re: Best way to create single article landing page for section

Thanks,

I went with the glx_if approach, using <txp:glx_if_section_frontpage> as it is clean and obvious, other approaches require nested conditions. I will probably return to one of these native approaches if I find any issues with the plugin.

Just upgraded to 4.2.0 and still no issues. Looking forward to sharing this eCommerce site I’m building when it is done!
