Link to Keywords, sort articles by keyword
I’m trying to set up my portfolio by tagging each project with the service I provided.
I have all my portfolio pieces as articles and I’m using the keywords field to insert keyword such as “Website Design” “Print Design” and what not.
The problem is, I don’t see a way to link to a keyword and then it pull all articles by that keyword.
Another option was using categories but that won’t work since TXP only allows 2 categories per article. So unless there’s a workaround for that I’m trying to do this with keywords.
Thanks in advance.

Re: Link to Keywords, sort articles by keyword
can you use the custom fields and a conditional tag? like example 3 here ?

Re: Link to Keywords, sort articles by keyword
I don’t even need that, I think I can use the article_custom tag to display using keywords.
The problem is I can’t find a way to link to it from say the homepage or my portfolio page.
For example:
If you are on the homepage and you want to see all the work that involved CSS
I would use the keyword CSS in the article
I want there to be a link on the homepage called CSS and it goes to everything that I tagged CSS.

By the way, here’s a link to my website: http://www.griffinwebworks.com
Furthermore,
I’m not really sure how the URL structure will look. I wanted it to look something like http://www.griffinwebworks.com/portfolio/css/ <— the last subdirectoy being the keyword, but it doesn’t necessarily have to be that way.
I suppose another way would be to create a section for each keyword and then use the article tag. But I didn’t really want to do it that way as the hiearchy would be messed up.

I don’t think Textpattern has any neat way of doing this sort of thing…
If any one else know a way, I’d be interested to hear it.
