Excerpt Questions

I am running into a little problem. here’s the details of what I want to do:

I have a section thats just for posting pics. I have code on my default page to show the exceprts from articles posted to just that section (header image of the site). Now… I would like to include text to the body of the pic post (I am linking to the image in the excerpt and putting text in the main body). I created a new form to use for pic posts and it contains:

<blockquote> < txp:if_article_list>
< txp:if_excerpt>
< txp:permlink>< txp:excerpt />< /txp:permlink>
< txp:else />
< txp:body />
< /txp:if_excerpt>
< txp:else />
< txp:body />
< /txp:if_article_list> </blockquote>

Now… when I go the articles page… It shows the excerpt along with the body. I’m trying to not show the excerpt again when you go to the post.

here’s the examples:

Re: Excerpt Questions

I figured it out… I forgot to change what form to use in the actual post… it was using the default post…

but now I have another problem. The site is acting how I want… but when I click on an article post it doesnt display the excerpt or comment areas.

I’m using :

< txp:article_custom form=“default” limit=“1” section=“article” sortby=“Posted” sortdir=“desc” excerpted=“y” listform=“default” />

in my main section to display only posts in the “article” section.
