Different layout depending on # of articles
Hello, I’m just wondering if this can be done: what I need basically is to use a specific layout when there’s only 1 article in a certain category, then a different layout if there’s 2, then 3, etc. I checked the mdn_count plugin but I don’t think that can really help.
Any suggestion?
Thanks in advance,
Ben

Re: Different layout depending on # of articles
Hi Ben
Although you might be right, I can’t see why mdn count wouldn’t work. The code below is untested
<txp:variable name="countarticles" value='<txp:mdn_count category=''<txp:category />'' section=''<txp:section />'' />' />
<txp:if_variable name="countarticles" value="1">
There is only 1 article
<txp:else />
There are no or many articles.
</txp:if_variable>Yiannis
