[plugin] [ORPHAN] rss_unlimited_categories - Unltd. Article Categories

alexandra · 2010-04-18 18:43:22

Hi,
how can i check if a category is assigned to an article at all?

I can use rss_if_article_unlimited_category but have to add all cats to attribute name which is cumbersome. What i like to achieve is:

rss_if_article_unlimited_category value=is-set
..some css here.. and cat-list
else
…nothing…or poem
/rss_if_article_unlimited_category

Something like this? (in the article form)

<txp:variable name="current_article_categories" value='<txp:rss_unlimited_categories_filedunder break="" />' />

<txp:if_variable name=""current_article_categories" value="">
   …nothing…or poem
<txp:else />
   ..some css here.. and cat-list
</txp:if_variable>

I read 70 pages of forum and I found nothing that explains how to solve the problem that this plugin has: selecting the category does not appear in the page items. I made a thousand attempts. The plugin is very useful and well done but the problem must be solved to avoid too many unnecessary posts! What is the code to display the items marked with the category?
I just can not refrain from using this plugin. Why not make a nice tutorial? I do it if I helped!
Congratulations to the author.

fioresarro, to display the items in a given category, use rss_unlimited_categories_article_list

or is that not what you’re asking?

Thanks for the reply! Now I managed to solve the problem.

The problem was the relationship between page, section and form.

If the installation is done on a modified template, the default values create conflict and give errors. These do not lead to the solution as the error on db absolutely wrong. Thanks, now everything works. Check yourself here.

anyone else get this when using the patch?

Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_STRING in /.../html/textpattern/lib/txplib_misc.php(594) : eval()'d code on line 14
The above errors were caused by the plugin:rss_unlimited_categories

Hi,
I’m kind of new to textpattern and I’ve a small problem with this plugin.
I use the tag rss_unlimited_categories_filedunder to display the categories of the articles but the category links would always show an empty page.
you can see it here : http://microdisco.org/
I though it was maybe a problem with the section name but the address of the page that should display the article of the category is like http://microdisco.org/articles/asia
which seem to be right because my post are labelled with the section “articles”.
I guess the solution is really easy but I spend hours on it and couldn’t resolve the problem. Please help me, I’m really desperate!

Olivier, can you post the code you’re using?

Looks like a cool site. I’m a friend of and occassional collaborator with Ranjit—I’ve played that matchbox synth!

olivierh · 2010-06-18 09:50:21

Hi Jason,
Thank you for your answer! I’m glad you like the site, it’s funny that you know Ranjit, brooklyn is small…

Here is the code I’m using to display the categories on the main page:

<txp:rss_unlimited_categories_filedunder break=” “/>

I also tried this but it didn’t work either
<txp:rss_unlimited_categories_filedunder section=“articles” break=” “/>

Then the “articles” section use the page “archive” and there I have something like this
<txp:article />
which always return an empty list of articles.
Do you need more ?
Take care,
Olivier

From help:
rss_unlimited_categories_filedunder - Lists all categories assigned to the current article

This tag used only for individual article.

<txp:if_individual_article>
   <txp:rss_unlimited_categories_filedunder break=" "/>
</txp:if_individual_article>

olivierh · 2010-06-18 17:18:22

Hi makss,
Yeah of course I use the rss_unlimited_categories_filedunder to list the categories of each individual article. And this works perfectly, the problem is only with the category links which all lead to an empty page.

floodfish · 2010-06-19 03:37:23

I think Olivier’s problem is that his category pages don’t display anything at all. Or they are hiding at some unknown URL.

I don’t really know how to diagnose it from here.

Olivier, what version of rss_unlimited_categories are you running? And which version of textpattern?

Are you using other plugins that might be interfering?
