Re: mem_glinklist: Grouped Link List

Yep,

And if I specify only one category, it displays the links from the one category…

Re: mem_glinklist: Grouped Link List

Yes I do, and I can display each category individually if I specify it in the attributes.

I’ve gotten very fustrated, so I’m writing my own and having pretty good success…

Re: mem_glinklist: Grouped Link List

pittster, what version of Textpattern are you using? If it’s rc3, what is the build number?

Is anyone else experiencing this problem?

Re: mem_glinklist: Grouped Link List

gday brize a.k.a. moondreamer,

two ways to do it…

1. use Manfre’s suggestion – “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”.”

2. hardcode two divs, and specify which categories of links you’d like in each (this is what I did)… e.g.

<code><div class=“link_list”>
<txp:mem_glinklist form=“plainlinks” category=“friends,enemies,friend enemies,romans” headwraptag=“h2” listwraptag=“div” wraptag=“div” />
</div>

<div class=“link_list”>
<txp:mem_glinklist form=“plainlinks” category=“heathens,lost tribes of israel,rapture ready” headwraptag=“h2” listwraptag=“div” wraptag=“div” />
</div>

<br clear=“all” />
</code>

and then, whether you’re using div.mem_list_column or in my case div.link_list, you float them …

<code>div.link_list {
width:230px;
float:left;
}
</code>

alternatively post a link to the page you’re working on and we can take a look under the hood

Re: mem_glinklist: Grouped Link List

Pittster and Manfre, I am having the exact same problem. It is only outputting links from one category and is not outputting the headings. I am using RC3 (April build from the website) and 0.8.1 of the plugin.

other info: I am using it on a section page and I am using clean urls.

Has anyone found a solution?

Thanks.

Re: mem_glinklist: Grouped Link List

I ended up writing my own plugin. Not a flexible, but it did exactly what I wanted.

Re: mem_glinklist: Grouped Link List

I will look in to this problem this weekend. Been really busy here due to grelins that always pop up at the end of a quarter.

Re: mem_glinklist: Grouped Link List

my plugin is very BASIC but it works for what I need it to do. www.pittster.com

BTW my site sucks right now. Please do not judge me too harshly :)

When I get some time over the next couple of weeks, I’m going to add the following attribs:
count – show the count in the category
bulletchar – character to use as a bullet
onlycats – show only the categories

And the features:
display all the subcats if a category is displayed.

Re: mem_glinklist: Grouped Link List

pittster, I have been unable to reproduce the problem with the official txp download. Can you post a txp diagnostics dump (low detail)?

Re: mem_glinklist: Grouped Link List

Any news on the above problem?

I just upgraded to RC5 (r705) from deanload and am having problems with it outputing links using argname=“c”. Here is what I want to use <code><txp:mem_glinklist form=“Links” argname=“c” /></code>, but when I am in a category nothing is outputted. If I use the category attribute then it works fine; category=“one-of-my-categories”. However, this isn’t what I want.

Any ideas?

Re: mem_glinklist: Grouped Link List

I’ll look in to the latest RC to see what could be causing the problem.
