Article published, wont show in articles page

vineonardo · 2012-04-24 16:23:04

Hello everyone,
So today while working on my new project where I’m trying to ‘AJAX’ify projects section, I ran into a weird problem.
I did try publishing a few test articles, but they didnt show in the section I was testing them on.

Since so far in the whole development process, there was never a need to post article and test it, I dont really know if this problem was there from the very begining or it showed up now.

So just to make sure I’m not missing anything or doing anything wrong, I just deleted all the pages I had created, except for the home page, which is just showing feeds. I took complete default code of Articles page, which comes by default in textpattern, I also deleted any forms I had created, only leaving the default ones, untouched.

Then I tried to post an article on the newly created(like default articles page) articles page. But again, it doesnt show anything.

Ah, forgot to mention, the same set-up is working very well offline, but since few static pages are different in the online version, I cant use that set up instead.

This is the core code of articles page.

<div class="hfeed">
<txp:article listform="article_listing" limit="5" />
</div>

When viewed in browser, the hfeed div turns out to be empty, meaning no article’s being published there.

Sorry for the long story, I just wanted to know if anyone’s seen anything like this before? Did I by mistake changed any setting in admin panel or something?
I know I might be making just a stupid little mistake somewhere may be, kindly enlighten me!

P.S. The only installed plugins at the moment problem first occured were, Adi_contact, Zem_contact plugin with Zem_contact_lang & upm_image.
Out of which I’ve removed adi_contact, I thought it might be causing it anyway, this was first time I tried using it.

This is what comes to mind offhand:

Is the article set to “Live”?
Is its date of publication in the future but there’s no matching attribute in the article tag(s) used?
Is the article tag above really the only one present on the page? (Are there maybe more article tags with more erroneous attributes sitting inside a form that any tag is calling?)
Is the article already expired and you forbid the publication of expired articles in the advanced preferences?
Did you apply a form override in the Write panel leading to an empty form or one with tags for the wrong TXP-context?

Hello Uli,
Thanks for your time.

I did check all the things you said, I dont know how but good news is, its working now.
I still do not know what really went wrong.
Yes, it was set to Live and date of publication was not changed, it was supposed to be published as soon as I hit save. Article tag was the only tag present on the page too.

I opened the article and just saved it again. Note that this article had no article images, it just had title. So for now its working, I’ll test it with article images again, lets see if article images are causing problem.

Thanks again for your precious time.

a tag trace might help solve this issue.

Imposing of hands ;) Always the most agreeable cure.

oops missed that one:)

Hello everyone,
Its working fine now. Starting over with the whole page did take time but solved few other issues as well and allowed me to clean the code.
Now the problem is, for some reason, jQuery slideshow is not working on the div which is holding article images. :(
But, this is not a textpattern problem so, I’ll have to deal with it on my own for now.

Just came here to thank both of you guys for your time.
