Category list

matteo · 2014-01-30 10:27:21

I would like to show a category list where by clicking on the category name I get redirected to the list of articles with that category.
Thank you very much!

Check out <txp:category_list /> in the user documentation, it has info and examples of how to do that.

With the code of documentation I can see the list but does not link refer to any article with that category.
Where is the problem?

Do you use txp:category_list with a form or as a container?

Have you included <txp:category title="1" link="1" /> as the example 3 shows (txp:category)?

Please show your code.

      <txp:category title="1" link="1" />
    </li>
  </txp:category_list>

<txp:else />

  <txp:article_custom section='<txp:section />' status="live" limit="999">

Hi

If i understund the category list is shown but the link is not sending you the right place, have you use some section to your aticles? if it s that you need to add it to the category tag like this:

<txp:category title=“1” link=“1”  section="yoursection" />

GugUser · 2014-01-30 15:04:34

Caution with the quotation marks in your code.
The category-list is shown in an individual article context from the section “ricette”.
Are there in the section “ricette” articles with categories?
How ist the code in the page dedicated to the section “ricette”?

It would be nice if you would give feedback if your issues have been resolved.

I have not solved either by entering the section:

<txp:if_article_section name=“ricette”>

<txp:category_list wraptag=“ul” break=”“>
<li<txp:if_category name=’<txp:category />’> class=“active”</txp:if_category>>
<txp:category title=“1” link=“1” section=‘ricette’ />
</li>

</txp:category_list>

<txp:else />

<txp:article_custom section=’<txp:section />’ status=“live” limit=“999”>
<li><txp:permlink><txp:title /></txp:permlink></li>
</txp:article_custom>

</txp:if_article_section>

</ul>

Hi,

I don’t know if it’s related, but section="ricette" will not restrict categories to those having articles in the section “ricette”, it will simply add “ricette” section to the category url. So, if you have a category “teatro”, the link will be output (in messy mode) as

<a href="...?s=ricette&c=teatro">Teatro</a>

Clicking on it will show all articles in section “ricette” with category “teatro”, which can be an empty list.

matteo · 2014-01-31 15:56:50

my url is indeed ?s=ricette&c=dolci-e-biscotti and is empty.
ok so how could I do?

Publish some dolci-e-biscotti ricette, just to check?

I think it would be better if you explain from the beginning what you like to do. It will not be difficult to realize.

But your information is imprecise and you’re not answering the questions. Are you really in an individual article when you need this statement <txp:if_article_section name=“ricette”>?
