Re: Single posts appear blank
What makes me scratch my head now is: why did rah_metas select data from the article in question?
In bad weather I never leave home without wet_plugout, smd_where_used and adi_form_links

To create unique meta descriptions and keywords for each article?

Because only the <txp:article />
tag cares about the article status (in this case at least). When Txp hits that tag it checks the article status using the status
array entry in $thisarticle
. Since it was being overwritten by the same-named custom field, all bets were off. rah_metas occurs waaaaay earlier and either a) doesn’t check the status, b) ignores it, or c) doesn’t use $thisarticle
.

Els has some tasty tips in all of her forum posts, like how to post a tag trace and also this:
Still no clue? Check the names of your custom fields
:-D

:) I didn’t mean “why did you use it” but “how could it work, different from the normal article tag”.

Strange … the only text that I can see in Els’ post is: “If the above replies don’t solve the problem, can you post a tag trace of an individual article page?”

OT: Have you got “Show user signatures” switched on in your forum Profile (Display settings)?

No … But this is stranger. I remember to have seen before, these days, signatures and for months I haven’t changed my settings.
Now, I can see it: “Tag Reference | Unexpected behaviour? Check the tag trace | Still no clue? Check the names of your custom fields”
The same happens with the avatars. Recently I saw them and now they were still disabled. I had not done that.

Uli, that’s where you clever guys come in :-D.
I tried this plugin for the first time and that was one of the things that actually did work!

I’d better start reading my own signature now and then… ;) Missed it too!
