Hey Uli, if it really works like that

Yup, if you get a “URL-only title was left blank” on saving, the article’s link (“View”) is http://your_site/articles/

it looks like you found a workaround to prevent static articles (used only on the section landing page) from showing up as individual articles: just leave the title field blank :)

I think you’d have to make exceptions for it over and over again, think of article list with titles in them. But where do you see it differing from method d, i.e. not showing a link for that one article? (Despite it’d have a title.)

Of course not showing a link should be enough. I was only thinking about something that happened to me a couple of times: using a (google) sitemap plugin, forgot to manually remove the article pages in question from it, so Google indexed them ;) (Note that this doesn’t happen anymore since I use rah_sitemap, much easier to configure!)
