Sub Articles of articles. just the connection of links.
I just got converted from wordpress, and there i had pages like there with sub pages:
For Example: Sports2all.com/extras
And its subpage: Sports2all.com/extras/games
how do i connect those two pages/articles.
Thank you.

Hi SuperMAG
You could use
- category – article
- section – article
for the url structure, you could use gbp_permanent_links

Re: Sub Articles of articles. just the connection of links.
gbp_permanent_links doesn’t have a help section, so it’s indeed a difficult plugin if you’re just starting out with Txp ;) But you don’t necessarily need that plugin, if you structure your site so that ‘extras’ is a section, and ‘games’ is an article, you’ll get the /extras/games URLs out of the box.

Re: Sub Articles of articles. just the connection of links.
well i did try that, but by doing that, the other 20 pages links will be changed too, i mean other pages have a default section for example called Pages.
it all shows pages/help or pages/livechat
I am really stuck in all this.
There should have been simpler things in textpattern core, like pages, sub pages.
Not everybody uses Articles etc.

Re: Sub Articles of articles. just the connection of links.
well that doesnt help much, can we get back to the topic.
can u show me some steps in that plugin or any other way to make those articles as sub articles. They dont have to be changed at all, i just want their links to be changed.
thanks for helping btw.

hi SuperMAG,
In txp there’s no such thing as sub-articles. What we have are
- Sections
- Categories
- Sub-Categories
- Sub-sub-categories etc
- Articles
- Sub-sub-categories etc
- Sub-Categories
- Categories
You can organise your articles content allocating them to sections and/or categories

Re: Sub Articles of articles. just the connection of links.
well i can do categories, but would it help, i mean will it make the links change from /chat to extras/chat etc.
as for sections, if i changed the url structure like section/title then it will change the other 20 pages too, so that doesnt work.
