Re: mem_glinklist: Grouped Link List
Thanks, Manfre
I’m using the “official” RC3 from TXP website download link.
Nice to hear that there will be human readable fields for category… and… ¿for sections?

Re: mem_glinklist: Grouped Link List
Manfre, I am using your new date tag this way <code><txp:mem_link_date format=”%B %d, %Y” /></code> but all the dates say December 31, 1969.
Update: I couldn’t get your new version to pull the category from the URL and only show links from the current category, I even set argname=“c” to use txp’s default category urls. It was always showing all category links. I found a fix by removing the “*” from the category in your array that sets the default attribute.

Re: mem_glinklist: Grouped Link List
Could you make the mem_if_category_empty tag pull from the current category from the URL if there is no category attribute defined in the tag? Just like with mem_glinklist.

Re: mem_glinklist: Grouped Link List
Excellent Manfre, I love your work.
I have one more question (I hope) and then I’ll leave you alone. I am using glx_if, like this:
<code>
<txp:glx_if_section_frontpage>
stuff…
<txp:else />
stuff…
</txp:glx_if_section_frontpage>
</code>
I would like to use mem_if_category_empty inside the above tags but I get an error. I suspect it has to do with having two txp:else tags.
Is it possible to use your plugin in this way?

Re: mem_glinklist: Grouped Link List
tinyfly, I’ll have to look in to this more. Your assumption is correct in that the multiple txp:else tags are mostly the cause of your problems.
moondreamer, mem_glinklist has an attribute “columns”, which allows you to specify the number of columns to use to display the links. Each column will be wrapped in a “div” an tagged with the CSS class “mem_list_column”.

Re: mem_glinklist: Grouped Link List
Upghraded and now it does not work anymore – could anoyone post som example forms etc so any beginner could use this plugin, is to difficult to set it up right now – and some examples would really help.
I want my ouput to be (without the spaces…):
< h2 > Category name < /h2 >
< h3 >Subcategory name< /h3 >
< p >< a href=“http:somelink.com”>Link title< /a >< /p >
< p >Link description</p>
< p >< a href=“http:someotherlin.com”>Link title< /a >< /p >
< p >Link description< /p >
And so one. Anyone?

Re: mem_glinklist: Grouped Link List
mikkex, this plugin does not support subcategories in the way that you are requesting.

Re: mem_glinklist: Grouped Link List
I have a question.
Is it possible to generate an “mailto:” link in a link loaded in the “links” tab of TXP admin?
I know the question is not directly related to this plugin (¿or maybe yes?).
But I have a list of links, and I want that some of those links become “mailto:” links.
I have tried filling the field “URL” directly with the “mailto:joedoe@foo.com” but it doesnt work, ‘cause TXP (or this plugin) adds the “http://”.
Illuminate me.
Thanks in advance.

Re: mem_glinklist: Grouped Link List
I just installed v 0.8 of this plugin and I can only get it to display one category of links, displaying in a line.
all I put is <txp: mem_glinklist />
I would like to create something similar to what is being on Manfre’s site.
Could someone provide a step by step for creating a link list similar to this?
Any help would be appreciated.

Re: mem_glinklist: Grouped Link List
First, when you are posting code in the forum surround it by the <code>< code></code ></code> tags. (spacing added so it would show up)
Second, I see you used the tag this way: <code><txp: mem_glinklist=”“></txp:></code>; this is improper usage. Here is the proper usage of the tag: <code><txp:mem_glinklist /></code>. If you need to add one of the attributes, do this: <code><txp:mem_glinklist argname=“c” /></code>. I always use argname=“c” so that it uses the way textpattern handles categories by default.
Third, click the help link next to the plugin name in your textpattern install and you will see an explanation on how to use mem_glinklist.
Hope this helps.
