Re: related articles feat. children

<txp:category_list break=","><txp:category /></txp:category_list> produces a list of all parent and child categories. Would that work, tags in tags?

Edit: added break parameter.

Re: related articles feat. children

In the article form (not tested):

<txp:article_custom category='<txp:category_list parent=''<txp:category1 />'' break=","><txp:category /></txp:category_list><txp:if_article_category number="2">,<txp:category_list parent=''<txp:category2 />'' break=","><txp:category /></txp:category_list></txp:if_article_category>' wraptag="ul" break="li">
     <txp:permlink><txp:title /></txp:permlink>
</txp:article_custom>

Re: related articles feat. children

i made it this way:

<txp:category_list break="" parent='<txp:category1 />' exclude='<txp:category1 />'>
<txp:article_custom category='<txp:category />' form="articleSmallRelated" limit="1" sort="Posted desc" />
</txp:category_list>

(watch out for the quotation marks, they look weird in the preview..)
