Re: two category in same section

Is this what you need?

<txp:article_custom category="update,other_category" section="dari" limit="3" offset="1">
<txp:article_image thumbnail="1" />
<a href="<txp:permlink />"><h5 class="paragraph"><txp:title /> </h5>
<h3> <txp:excerpt /></h3></a> 
</txp:article_custom>

Re: two category in same section

The docs for article_custom say that a comma-separated list of categories should be possible.

Try first making limit a larger value. You are only looking for three articles and the standard sort order is by date, so if all your most recent articles (except for the first one, as you have offset set) are in the same category, you might not notice that it is working correctly. Or use sort="rand()" to get random results each time.

You can also use txp:category_list to produce two article_custom outputs, but they are then one after the other.

Re: two category in same section

Hi ibadullah,

Are you sure you have enough articles in the other category which are newer than the ones you have as a limit?
