Re: [plugin] [ORPHAN] upm_date_archive: Date archive listings
Somehow I missed this announcement the first time around! Date-based archives—Yay! Thanks, Mary.

Re: [plugin] [ORPHAN] upm_date_archive: Date archive listings
Mary,
How do I eliminate the month date that appears before the articles? <code><txp:upm_date_archive section=“newsletter” include_date=“no” form=“feature-excerpt” /></code>
I want to get rid of the “December 2005” on top since it is being used in a newsletter with a common header. Basically, I want a date-format=“none” or equivalent. I guess I’m trying to use this as a date-aware article_custom, which may not be doable.
Matt

Re: [plugin] [ORPHAN] upm_date_archive: Date archive listings
Update: Nevermind, heading_format=”“ seems to do the trick.

You might look at this idea:

I’ve gotten good feedback on it so far, and it sounds like it might help.

Re: [plugin] [ORPHAN] upm_date_archive: Date archive listings
Wow. That’s great, rsilletti. I can see some definite applications for your plugin. In this case, however, I need a date-based index for a quarterly newsletter — with the ability to pull up old newsletters by date. I think Mary’s plugin will suit for this.
I’ll revisit your plugin to make sure I’m not missing anything, however.

Mary, this looks great. Can’t wait to use it. But I must be doing something wrong:
I’ve uploaded the plugin and made it active.
I’ve clicked the section boxes on the extensions tab for the plugin. I’m using /section/id/title for urls.
I’ve put the code <code><txp:upm_date_menu category=“Music” month_format=”%m”/> <txp:upm_date_archive /></code> into my page.
I’m running 4.0.2.
But I get nothing on the page. Where did I go wrong?

Ok, another one: can I turn off list formatting for upm_date_archive? Make it not show: <code><ul><dd>, etc.</code>

I’m having the same problem, I posted the code on my page but nothing happened. What syntax do I use, bare bones, to get the plugin to output on the page?

v.0.1.3 (doesn’t completely fix it, but I think it’s getting there)

<txp:upm_date_menu />
<txp:upm_date_archive />
If you’re getting no display for upm_date_menu, then something has gone wrong. I’m still trying to get the insert_empty_months to work correctly.

Re: [plugin] [ORPHAN] upm_date_archive: Date archive listings
Okay.
v.0.1.4.
I tried it with three different user’s data. Does this completely fix insert_empty_months for everyone?

Nopz, not for me:
<code>
<txp:upm_date_menu insert_empty_months=“no” section=“blog” />
</code>
Displays empty months :c/
