Re: if article exist in a specific section and category

Use if_article_section and if_article_category nested inside each other.

If category india only ever occurs in the section news, you only need to test for if_article_category.

Re: if article exist in a specific section and category

Hi raminrahimi,

Other solution :

<txp:variable name="articles-list"><txp:article_custom section="your-section" category="your-category" form="your-form"  … />

<txp:if_variable name="article-list" value="">
    <p> Sorry, no article for this section and this category </p>
<txp:else />
    <txp:variable name="article-list" />
</txp:if_variable>

This solution is valable if you are out of your section and your category context.
